Seeking God Knows What

You can always tell when I’m bored cause I’m a prolific poster to my blog

And this has absolutely nothing to do with my previous post.

I keep getting these phone calls to do “market research”.  The first one was to preview an issue of Oprah’s magazine O on a specific day, then they called me the next day and asked me about the various ads in the magazine.  I was a pretty poor choice on that one because I didn’t really pay much attention to them.  And you are asked to fill out a “prize” sheet where you select which is your favorite product from a group of products.  You do one before and one after.  Um, I don’t think my favorite choice is going to change because of an ad.

The most recent one was to watch this video tape of a never seen “pilot” of a sitcom.  Apparently the tape erases while you watch it, so you are not supposed to rewind it.  It was a pretty stupid sitcom with a premise of a divorced dad, his two dad friends and their pre-school/kindergarten age children.  It was definitely taped about 10 years ago based on the hair, clothing, etc.  I suspect I shall be asked about the commercials again along with the little survey about what I thought of the show.  I have to say it sucked and I hope they aren’t contemplating whether to air something like it.

I should probably go to bed, not that I’m tired.  I have to make sure I get out the door in the morning as I have my appointment with #5 before I go to work.  Speaking of therapy, one of my sisters commented that she was considering going to see someone.  I find that very interesting as while she’s always been a great proponent of me going, she has always kind of hinted she would never go.  I suggested a group for her to check out that I talked to recently before T agreed to come with me for a couple of sessions.  I don’t know whether she’ll follow through but I have been told not to mention it to our mother. Heh heh.  Hmm, I wonder why she wouldn’t want Mom to know

On a good note, T did get Thursday and Friday off, so we will have 5 days off in a row together with the holiday on Monday.  Of course, we couldn’t make any plans because we didn’t know until today if he was actually going to be able to have vacation.  Maybe we can figure out a day trip to do something different than sitting at home or aimlessly shopping at Target or the mall in order to get out of the house.

Alright, I must quit rambling here and attempt to go to bed.  Perhaps I’ll have something quite profound to say tomorrow
