Your basic, run of the mill, update that you have seen from me numerous times

So I'm not in the type of zone that I usually try to be in before updating for the first time after awhile, but I have put this off long enough so I'm just going to go for it. This is the update where I bore most of you with my current doings.

Hi my name is Thoy. I'm 22 years old. I'm a carpenter. I'm also a salesman/skate sharpener/basement dweller at General Sports. I like to play hockey. I like to watch television and movies. I like to listen to talk radio. I like to play trivia at the bars. I like to party.

I don't know why I just did that.

Right, so yeah I started working at General Sports about a month ago. I got thrown into the mix on a super busy Saturday after the New Year and somehow I landed on my feet and earned the trust of my peers. I enjoy the job thoroughly. I work with hockey players who like to drink so I kind of fit right in. My brother landed me the job and I'm forever grateful for him for this because man has work died off with my dad and I. We had all these projects lined up for after the holidays but they kept getting pushed further and further back or got canceled. Go economy! So if I didn't have the excitement of a new job my days would be spent watching my mind lose itself. Plus its nice to actually work with other people that aren't my father for the first time in a few years. I haven't driven them nuts for 20+ years yet so they have more patience with my antics. Well all of them except my brother. He is an extremely hard worker and has always made me look bad. I'm just trying to keep up with him so people can't say things like, "I see that all the hard working genes must have skipped a beat" or something like that. I don't know. That sounded stupid.

Other than that I have been playing hockey. I didn't get outdoors as much as I would have liked to because of the new job and all but that's alright. Our Monday night mens spring league starts up on Monday so that will be nice.

Note: I started this entry over 24 hours ago and put it off. Since I started this I have started to play Zelda for the first time in two years (never actually beat The Twilight Princess), watched the Edina-Minnetonka hockey game (Edina got crushed. I look forward to talking to the citizens of Edina about how the team just isn't jelling right now, they need more secondary scoring, but they have plenty of time to get it back together before playoffs, tomorrow at work.), watched The Office, (hilarious. "Is that Jim's!"), ate shit on a patch of ice outside my house, played trivia (placed 4th. won a free drink. We got fucked hard in the music round. One team absolutely killed it though so we didn't have a chance for 1st), returned to playing Zelda (I somehow beat a dungeon with some beers and a few cocktails in me. My puzzle skills are still alive apparently), watched "Vicky, Christina, Barcelona" (I thought it was pretty solid), watched an episode of LOST (I like where this season is going), an episode of The Real World (I have a boner for Ryan. I think he is an interesting person. I also have a boner for that tranny Katelyn, damn she fine), thought about the plot of Eyes Wide Shut extensively while I was taking a shower (Up until the orgy scene that movie is just a bunch of nothing), ran up to General Sports, ran to the bank, and than I returned here.

And because of the pause I now have another paragraph of junk.

So what else about the current rp mcmurphy? I'm a dirty bastard right now. Not really different I guess 'cause I'm a dirty bastard probably 10 months out of the year. My beard is starting to turn red, which is usually my calling card to shave. The mop of a haircut I have is starting to become a tangled mess and is bothering my brother at work. He is the only one that has told me to get it cut though. Everyone else just tells me that I look exactly like he did when he started there. They called him Bob Seager and thus the reason I'm called the son of Bob Seager by one employee. I told Andy and Chris this already, but one of the girls that just started working there asked me if I was in a band and said I looked like I was, my erection poked her eye out I'm pretty sure.

I don't listen to much music anymore, sadly. My computer crashed a while back and I have not yet gone through the process of ripping all of my cds. The idea of going through that for a third time kind of frightens me so it might be awhile before I actually do. I only have a few albums on my computer right now. One being Lykke Li's album, which I'm listening to right now and am quite fond of. I only went to one concert this past year as well which is kind of discouraging in a way, but I just can't afford shows anymore. Instead I spend my money at bars on trivia night.

The Oscars are around the corner so I have been trying to watch some of the nominated films because I always watch that hanus award ceremony anyway and it's always better if you have actually seen some of the films. I'll post about what I thought of the films once I've viewed more. I'll just say that In Bruges is still my favorite film of the past year. Highly underrated.

I haven't really been reading that much. I read "Boys Will Be Boys" by Jeff Pearlman. It chronicles the rise and fall of the Cowboys dynasty of the 90's. Some of the stuff is pretty crazy, the partying, drugs, hookers, and whatnot. Highly entertaining. I started Dennis Leary's new book but only got about half way before I had to return it to the library. Some of the passages were absolutely hilarious though. But yeah, our book club never really took off. Oh well, maybe sometime when we're older and grow vagina's and need an excuse to get out of the house away from our alcoholic husbands we'll get it going.

We have been spending a lot of time at Chris' and Illman's house sitting gig. The house is gorgeous. I think I like to be over there because it's like living in a house that I know I'll never be able to afford ever in my lifetime. So I might as well experience it for 6 months.

I want a dog to call my own. Unfortunately I don't think I have the funds to support one. I would buy one and than become piss poor broke and become homeless and be one of those homeless people that has a dog. I'm the type of person that sees that scene and feels more sorry for the dog than the human. The people who Chris and Illman are house sitting for have my dream set up for pooches. 1 black lab, 1 chocolate lab, 1 beagle. Perfect.

As I have said before numerous times, the future of this blog is bright... Hopefully I stay up with this time. If I don't I see no other option but opening of the MOYD diaries for this upcoming lent season. But that's a few weeks away so we'll see how I do.

That is all for now my fellow Americans/Canadians/Hispanics. Hopefully I did not bore you as much as I bored myself while writing this.
