I swear...

this guy on American Idol looks freakishly like Justin Timberlake.

Dreaming of the lottery

Paying bills always depresses me and snaps me back to reality. On a better note, I start a new and promising job on Feb. 25 in Baltimore. I'm pretty excited about it because I had to pass a background check to make it. I guess there are no major ghosts in my past.

I watched this show today on A&E about flipping houses. It's such a risky business but I think if you weren't totally money hungry it'd be great. But, people just want more and more so end up making poor investments. It's frustrating to watch. I wish I had the capital to start a venture of some kind. I'd love to do something for myself, by myself. It'd be gratifying and fulfilling. Until then, I stick to the 9 to 5.

I have to constantly remind myself that I'm making moves or I become depressed and stuck. I know it's going to take a few years, but I'm going to make sacrifices and get out of the hole. Definitely.

Moving on.....

Since the writer's strike I stopped watching Grey's and Ugly Betty. So basically, I stopped watching television. Now, I don't even know if I missed new episodes or not. Then, the American Idol auditions came back on and I watched them. This year I may actually try to keep up with it instead of flipping the channel once the hilarious although degrading auditions are over. Some of the contestants are interesting and I want to see what America thinks. It'll be a sort of social experiment for me. See if I can predict who America will be most like to vote for based on media influence and common bias. I don't mean bias in just a negative way either. Towards the end I hope to form my own opinion on whether or not American Idol is based on talent or not. Hopefully talent.
