First post

So I've decided to start a blog for myself. I don't know how often I'll update it or even use at all, but I'm sitting here at wok since noon and it's now 230 and have yet to do anything so why not. I imagine this just be a way to vent and get things off my chest about work, life, and in general random things that happen to me in general. So the things that are on my mind right now:

Work the past few months has been incredibly busy, days off are few and far between. Don't get me wrong this is what I signed up for, but it is starting to effect my personal life. I have some of the best friends anyone could ask for, incredibly loyal and caring. However in addition to my work I have been going through some personal shit with my mothers health. This is too long of a story to get into on this blog, it's a story for another day. Regardless, I have been in a funk lately. All I really want to do is go home after work and enjoy a bottle of wine, and veg in front of the TV. This has led to a few cancellations on friends. I have tried to tell them it has nothing to do with any one imparticular, just that I havn't felt like going out. That and work causing even more cancellations is understandably frustrating. So to those that have felt that way, I do apologise and will make efforts to correct.

Secondly, this show I am working on right now is quite boring. I have taken over the show from a peer that did the show last season. He and I have rather different programming styles and having to transfer his show with different types of fixtures was frustrating. That combined with the fact the LD wanted to show to look exactly like the previous version means that I have to use the existing cue data. Suck. Anyway we are now in shooting mode so the days are long and boring. You know the saying- Second verse same as the first. Well this is like 15th verse same as the first. I mean really, how long can watching people play counter strike be entertaining. I enjoyed back in the day getting together with a bunch of guys and blowing each other up, but sitting here watching other people do it........ enough already. Regardless, it all pays the same. Considering the amount of people that I know that are out of work due to the writers strike, I don't like to complain about work, but then it's what we do.

Well that has to be it, since they just called cameras to headset, it looks like we might actually do something. Yeah.
