The Smell of Disgust

The Smell of Disgust
Photo-A-Day #1274

This pretty much sums up my day. I absolutely hate bananas. I hate the smell, the texture, the taste and the look. I hate watching people eat bananas because I always see bits of banana in their open mouths. People get real close to you when they are eating bananas. I simply hate them, and yes I hate banana bread too, it has bananas in it!.

Why was my day like this? After work I went to the British Beer Company to celebrate my friend’s promotion. That was nice. What wasn’t nice was me leaving without leaving any money for the buffalo wings and soda I had. I was stuck in traffic and realized that I left without leaving any money. Oh man I felt horrible, I called my friend and my manager and explained what happened. I hope that they got the messages before the bill came.

I left in a rush because I was going to pick up Eva from Allison. Allison was volunteering to help out with Project Smile. Project Smile was having their 5th Anniversary Gala Event. The event was attended by special guests Gail Huff and J.C. Monahan of WCVB Channel 5 news, Boston. When I arrived Eva was in the lobby of the hotel with our friend Jenn. Eva’s eyes lit up when she saw me. I carried her to the room where the Gala was being held. There I met both J.C. Monahan and Gail Huff. They are both very beautiful and so nice. The were all about meeting Eva and she was so cute with them too. Eva is now waving like crazy and saying hi. Another reason I am disgusted with myself is that I didn’t have my camera or XShot with me so an awesome photo-a-day opportunity missed.

On top of that I screwed up Read To Me, Dad for most of the day but now it is back up and working. Some things are missing but I will figure it out tomorrow. Also if your comment is missing on that blog I will figure that out too. So I guess I was preoccupied with the blog being messed up all day.

I have one blog left to get moved over and that is The Wired Kayaker. Soon, soon I will fix that.

Television

DVR Fixed: Cable Catch up

Premiere of NBC's

Now that the DVR and Cable is fixed I can get caught up. I’ve watched a bunch of shows and need to catch up. Here are my impressions of shows this week. Spoilers may be in here of Course.

Tuesday Night
I watched the Mentalist with Allison. Not digging this show. It is like a grown up version of PSYCH that is darker. There were some interesting points but in all I am not hooked. Tuesday is a pretty nothing night in my opinion. A night to catch up on blog stuff.

Wednesday Night
Bones : The Crank in the Shaft.
Oh man that opening with everyone in the elevator and then the shredded leg falls in. Yuck. We get another new intern this week who is very very morbid. I love how Cam tried to engage him over and over only to get more and more freaky answers. That was pretty funny. Angela and Hodgins seem to be getting their relationship slowly worked out. We see Sweets in a smaller role this week and much mroe interaction between Booth and Bones. I like how they worked together in this episode. The whole thing about the chair and Booth’s back was funny as well. A decent episode.

Knight Rider: “Journey to the End of the Knight”
I hope that they don’t name everything with Knight. It may be camp but it is silly. This episode we see Michael involved in an underground racing circuit that is also involved in selling high tech secrets and weapons to our enemies. This plot was very poorly contrived. It was fun to see how Michael pushes the limits of K.I.T.T. The sexual tension between Michael and Sarah is still playing out. I’d rather see less tension between the two and just have them be together. It would make the danger better. I am wondering when they will have K.I.T.T. turn into something other than the attack mode and the truck. I was hoping Kitt would switch to a Ford GT. That would be cool. Basically I am watching the show for the transformations and the camp of it all. I catch it on Hulu.com.

Thursday Night
My Name is Earl Both Episodes
I still love this show for Jason Lee’s delivery of lines, the cast of characters is hilarious and both episodes were a riot this week. Nothing major revealed, just more stuff on the list. I like that they have gone back to the list. I’d like to see how far along Earl is on that list.
