Way Behind the curve
September 20th, 2005. I was beginning my last year of University. I was really busy with school work, and not doing any of it. I was not a very good student, but I did work a lot because I liked partying, and unless you were born with boobs, partying costs money. That night I was probably: studying (not likely), getting some (possibly), trying to get some (more likely), or working to pay off enough of my student loan to get it extended to buy more booze (ding ding ding). Because I was otherwise engaged, I missed the premiere of a fantastic show, My name is Earl. Because of my hectic life-style, I am sad to say that I have never seen an episode. there really is no excuse. I love Jason Lee, I love the trailer trash sexiness of Jaime Pressly. I love trailer trash humor in general. The fact that I had not seen an episode is unforgivable.
Fast forward to today. School is out, I quit that career to go work in construction, because the whole “educated professional” thing really doesn’t work for me. It clashes with my spirit. I’m a simple guy, who likes building things and breaking things.
The best part about construction is also the worst part of construction. When it gets cold, there’s not much work to be done. That being said I have a lot of free time on my hands now. It is my goal to eat right, work out, and watch every episode of My Name is Earl that has ever aired.
Five bucks to whoever can correctly guess which of those I am most likely to accomplish (hint: I ate a gut buster supreme last night, and the cold left overs this morning).
