Work and Grease.

Another week of work is about to begin. I am still loving my new job. There are times when I feel overwhelmed and underqualified, but I think that is normal. I have a big month that will tell me what if I am doing my job well. There are two big trade shows in early Sept that I got the company into. Now I just need to figuer out what's next. Oh the pressure, and not the good kind (if you know what I mean, dirty birdys). I'll keep you updated.

Last night Tim and I went with one of our uber-hags, (my on-line arch enemy) Lothian, to see GREASE as part of the CAPA Summer Movie Series here in C-Bus. It was like being 10 all over again, seeing it for the first time (when in reality, I'm seeing it for the 8,000 time). Lothian and I had a blast singing "Summer Nights" and doing the arm movements in "Greased Lightning". Isn't it sad that it takes a 30 year old movie to make me have fun. Damn old age is a bitch! Until next time, We go together like ramamalama didinkidinkidonk.

Hunks of the 70's

For those of us who were alive back in the 1970's, (yes that means we're OLD. Remember lava lamps, disco, the Love Boat (Hoochie Coochie), and Joanie Loves Chachi. There were many hunks during that decade. I was but a wee lad, having been almost 2 when the decade began and 11 when it ended. No that pic is not me, I'm much cuter and have more fashion sense.

Here is my list of the foxy men of the 70's.
10. Donny Osmond - He's a little bit RocknRoll.


9. Han Solo - I wanted him to rescue me with his Millenium Falcon.

8. Village People - They certainly were Macho Men...

7. Butch and Sundance - America's first Brokeback Mountain

6. Fonzie - I wonder what he meant when he told Potsie to sit on it. Hmmmmm.

5. John Travolta - Danny, Tony, or Barbarino. We all loved him before Scientology. Those Su-ummer Niiiiiii-hhightssss.

4. Robert Conrad - I loved his tight pants in "Wild Wild West." Had many dreams about me and him on a train. But I digress.

3. Warren Beatty - Hmmm, wonder why I picked him?


2. Patrick Duffy - It's no wonder why JR envied him so much.

1. Erik Estrada - Damn Ponch, or is it Pouch?!!

My first day of school

This is the first time I believe I have ever said this.... I LOVE MY JOB!!! I started working on several projects yesterday, I have about 5 or 6 that need to be done within a month. I have a lot of email lists to research and put together, and 3 trade shows to start working on (the first of which is in mid Sept). I am a busy boy. I hope I can do it all.

I don't think they know of my gayety as of yet. I am not going to hide it, but I am also not bringing it up until they ask about personal stuff. My gut instinct is that they will have no problem with it. I'm sure there may be snickers behind my back, but I can live with that. I am most likely going to laugh at them as well.

I had to change my physical therapy schedule starting next week. I have an hour for lunch, but I don't want to spend it at PT. I need to eat, and let my dogs out (which is convenient since I live 10 minutes from work). I will be PTing before or after work. I only have 8 appts. left before I am done forever. Thankfully.

OK I better scat. Talk to you all later.

Director of Marketing, Thank You very much!!!

I finally landed the gig of all gigs. I am the new Director of Marketing for a fairly large roofing company here in C-Bus. After all the interviews, hundreds of resumes sent, and constant worrying that my degree was worthless, this position came through when I needed it most.

I am not going into to many details. However this much I can tell you, the pay is good, with a distinct possibility of getting MUCH better, it is a business casual atmosphere (no ties required), and the owner is a great guy. Most importantly, I am working in my degree field, M-F 9-6, NO weekends, NO evenings, NO holidays, and NO RETAIL!!!!

Oh, did I mention that I start today as well. In fact I have about 15 minutes before I leave for my first day. I'll blog to you soon about how it is going. Unitl then. YeaY!!!

Whoopi there it is!!

It's time to make Whoopi on "The View". Whoopi Goldberg is replacing Rosie O'Donnell on the chatfest. I am a huge fan of hers. Remember "Sister Act"? One of the best comedies ever. As for how she will do on "The View"? I'm not sure. She won't be quite as in your face a Rosie was, she may not be as controversial either. I hope she sticks to Eliza-bitch every time she can. That Bush loving hyprocrit deserves to be tongue-ashed often. I hope Whoopi has the balls to do it.
