HK Season 5 and a Lesson Learned

I’ve been waiting for tonight’s first episode of Hell’s Kitchen Season 5 for months.  A and I used to watch the show regularly and would laugh non stop at Chef Ramsay as he screamed, shut the kitchen down, made people cry, threw food at the chefs, insulted the customers, etc. . . So tonight I sat down and watched the first new episode alone, but thats ok.  I was certainly not disappointed.  I just don’t understand people who go on this show anymore.  Do they not watch previous episodes?  By now you would think the contestants would know what not to do and what not to say.  And for God’s sake, NOT to speak back to Ramsay.  Some will never learn I guess.

Anyway, in the heat of the moment I made the terrible mistake of tweeting on twitter who got kicked off.  As soon as I posted the tweet I knew I was in the wrong and immediately deleted the tweet.  Too late!!  I got totally called out by some of my favoraite twitter friends.  Yikes!  I felt like a total fool.  I got a lot of shit, but it was all in good fun and luckily I didn’t REALLY piss anyone off.  At least none that I know of.  Doh!

Just two things I wish I could change. . .

1.  Wish A and I could have enjoyed tonight’s episode together

2. Wish I didn’t make that damn tweet.  lol

In other news.  Got a strange voice mail later in the evening from N in Atlanta.  Either he is tired from working too much or something else is up.  I suspect its the latter.  I tried to call back but he didn’t answer.  Hope all is well with him.  I’m sure I will hear from N tomorrow, if not, I told him I would ring him this weekend.

Been really bad about posting on my blog the past couple of months and have fallen behind on reading others.  I’m gonna catch up this coming weekend.

More Late Night Thoughts

So the error I made at work didn’t quite end up being as big of a deal as I thought it would. At least not that I’ve heard anyway. But I know my bosses boss all too well (I’ve worked with the asshole for too many years) and I know I’m on his shit list now, but then again, I’ve been on it for as long as I known him. lol  Not looking forward to tomorrow as I have to present this incident during our monthly mangers meeting in the morning. Oh well, life goes on.

It’s been terribly cold here the past few days and I’m reminded every day why I want to move somewhere with a much more temperate climate. I think my cat Jesse would agree.

Was supposed to go to dinner with A tonight but due to the extreme cold he wanted to postpone. (yup, another reason why we are not together) Thats ok though, we have made plans to check out an upscale pizza joint (I’m not saying the name because I don’t want those googling the place coming accross this blog) in Brookside early next week for wood fired pizza. We had a good chat on the phone earlier tonight and I congratulated him on his 1 year anniversary. I honestly think he was surprised that I remembered. I’m extremely proud of him for his accomplishment.

So thats all there is which is kinda sad to say.  My excuse for not writing anything recently, just nothing going on.  Nothing.

Late Night Thoughts

There’s so many things on my mind tonight, my mind is going 100 miles per hour.  First and foremost is work.  I made an major fuck up last Friday and I’m afraid its going to cost me dearly.  My boss and my bosses boss have been out of the office all week but my immediate boss returns tomorrow.  I’m going to have to sit down and explain what happened and kiss some royal ass. If I don’t get written up over this its going to be a miricle.  I probably will, and probably deserve it, I just don’t want that on my record.  Ughhh.  But as J told me the other night, I’ll make it though this, its not the end of the world.  I hope she is right!

Other things weighing on my mind include my talk last week with H, which I talked about in the post A Great Christmas Gift.  I really need to sit down and write about our relationship like I said I would.  There’s just so much to say it might take a week.   I’ll try to get a readers digest version out soon.   Then there’s A, who I think about quite a lately.  I miss that little shit.  lol  We are going to do dinner next we to catch up and I’m looking forward to it.  For one thing, everytime we get together I’m reminded of why were are just not right for each other.  And finally, 2009.  I didn’t get hardly anything I wanted to acomplish in 2008 done so I think this is the year to do those things.  I KNOW this is the year.  So here’s to 2009, I’m gonna make it my year.

I need to sleep.  Turn off my mind and sleep.
