Ok these things have nothing in common at all. I didn’t get to watch Twin Peaks when it aired in the late 80's/early 90's. My roommate Brandon kept insisting I watch it and got a burned copy from a friend. I haven’t finished it yet due to a busy schedule, but without a doubt it is the best show from that time period and one of the best shows ever. I am almost midway into season 2. I like Lynch a lot (the director and creator of Twin Peaks). This show might be his best work in my humble opinion. So if you haven’t seen it check it out. If you have wait till I finish and we can discuss the craziness that is Twin Peaks. Seriously, wow what a series.
On to Office Space. I love this movie. Working a office job it rings a bit more true for me. I haven’t watched it in at least a couple years and the HBO is showing it so I caught it the other day. I haven’t laughed so hard at a movie I had already seen in a long time. I was in a good mood (no alcohol involved) anyways, so it made it all the better. I love those movies that when you catch them at the right time they are just plain awesome. So I was on the facebook and Kyle (Columnist for the Bham Weekly, his column "War on Dumb") posted a faux Office Space Preview and it was all sorts of awesome.
Check it.

Long Time No Blog
Ive been busy of late. This summer has been a very social summer. Since taking a break from running due to a nagging injury in May and many nights drinking heavy beers at the Clyde, I somehow gained 20+ pounds this summer. I won't be quitting the drinking but I am back running. I have also quit smoking for the billionth time. This time Imma pretty sure it is going to take. I quit for about 6 weeks earlier this year. This has been the hardest quit yet. So far so good I am on day 4.
The past few months have been fun from SaLe and Jim's wedding to seeing some off my all time favorites for the first time Tom Waits, Flaming Lips and Levon Helm. A lot of other good times have been had. I also finally have a car I can trust to leave town and have a/c and a stereo. My most recent rediscovery is NPR. I forgot how much I love the NPR. The summer has been good only thing missing is a new job, a new scene and a romance.
As far as romance is concerned I am finally reaching a point in my life where I think I can be content with no one. It is one of hardest things I struggle with, but accepting it is the only way to get past it. As 30 hit I have come to realize I must mature more in my life. I am debating taking the GMAT and grad school, trying to figure out my best route careerwise. Someone new has been pushing me to become more and find a better path, which is encouraging.
