You know when you get bored and you're watching tv, but its in the middle of Sunday so you're just flipping through the channels desperately hoping for something to watch? And you finally are about to give up and read a book or go outside when you happen upon a Law & Order episode?
They are always on. Every channel too. It's like this magnificent show that just lets you hang onto the brim of almost being bored to death.
But not quite dead yet, no, you are just enough interested in seeing who murdered that poor homeless girl that you'll tune in until the end.
Law & Order has saved my life a couple of times in that respect. Keeping me alive through that hour to finally find a crappy movie is starting on FX or until someone calls me and we'll end up hanging out.
This latest episode (that prompted this blog) was about "a famous girl, who is just famous cause she's rich, gets murdered by WHO?" It was intriguing, because I couldn't pinpoint the murderer in the first 20 minutes (which is what I do at least 70% of the time).
It was all going well when tragedy happened. I had to leave.
But it was 7:40. And they hadn't told me who killed her yet. There were at least 4 suspects: the gang member who runs the club she hangs out at, the 16 year old kid who is obsessed with her, the chef who proposed to her and his manager.
I left. And because I left I don't know who killed her. WHO KILLED HER JEFF GOLDBLUM? (it was one of the newer ones, cause Vincent Dinofrio left...oh you know what I'm talking about...right?)
This is why I think there should be a blog out there, where people who love the cheesyness of Law & Order can post the endings to L&O. So I can look them up later and see who dunnit. And I'll be satisfied.
No, I don't have to go watch the epp again. I've seen it. At least the majority of it that I can picture what happens in the end.
Wouldn't that be great? So when you are bored, and you find a L&O episode on, you don't have to worry about watching the whole thing. You just go to that blog and read about it the next day, when you are nearly dying of boredom at work. Isn't that a great idea? It'd be a life saver!
Good ol' Law & Order, always saving peoples lives.

Photo!
I won a photography contest!
I was going to just lead in with a nice story and whatnot but I can't hold it in!
I WON! This is exciting. These pictures I took were from my old phone. The one that doesn't have internet.
First, let me show you my pictures...


Both of these were taken a couple of years ago when I first started working at my riverboat job.
(I call it the riverboat job now cause I also work at another boat job which is not a riverboat. It is a submarine...)
In the weekly "Mercury Messenger" newsletter at my job, there was a "photo contest". Send in your photos and we'll vote and see who wins!
So I was like, hey, these people at least need these pictures, I think they are quite good. Who cares if I win.
What do I get now that I DID win?
An overnight stay in a downtown hotel! STAYCATION bitches! I'm excited. I want to watch cable and go hang out in a hot tub or go swimming. I'm super excited. Hooray.
Though I feel as if maybe another person who doesn't get to live in the city should have won....
but hey, my pictures kick ASS! Right? RIGHT?!

And you'd think i'd write more
You ever have that feeling that you are so freaking busy that if only you could have ONE day, just ONE DAY, then everything would be allright?
Then you get that one day and you waste it just watching tv?
I have so many plans for today, but I've already wasted most of the morning on the internet. Granted I was updating twitter.....which is highly important.
I also was enjoying this website - Yearbook Yourself - which looks like its made by Woodfield Mall.
Incidentally I've never been to Woodfield Mall and I do really have the itch to shop today. Get some fun threadless t-shirts and such.
But I need to save money instead of spend it. I think thats partially why I haven't gone out of my house yet today. I don't spend money when I'm at home!
Hey did you know I have 2 more payments left on my car? 2! IN fact, if I go to my bank of america website right now and log in.....
ONE MORE PAYMENT ON MY CAR!!!
Hooray.
Also because of Mint.com I keep better track of where my money is going.... And most of it is going to house and car. Which is good. Cause at least most of it isn't going to Threadless Tshirts.
You know what else I've done for myself? Written down on a sheet of papes my bills for the month and the paychecks as they come in... what a GOOD idea huh? HUH?
ANYWAY.
now that I've wasted more time just fucking around on here.... I guess its time ot straighten up my room. And find that bill from National Geographic....
Goodness, I really wanna go to Strange Cargo and just buy stuff.
Hey did I tell you I'm reading "The Neverending Story"? Its SO good, this guy has one awesome imagination. Its so amazing. Read it, if you find it anywhere. :)
