A Day in the Life...

7:50 am - Woke up ten minutes before my alarm. Looked at my wife who was still sleeping soundly. Cuddled up next to her to warm her up for a few minutes before I got up.

8:01 am - Alarm went off. Rolled out of bed and said my morning prayers. Entered the living room and sat down at my computer. Checked my email, spam, spam, more spam, rejection letter, rejection letter, facebook spam (just to mix things up), another job rejection letter...love the job search.

8:22 am - Got up from desk to stretch. Getting old, so gotta keep my body limber somehow.

8:43 am - Sat down to read some comics, they always make my mood brighter at the beginning of the day. I'm currently in the middle of the comic version of some of my favorite novels, Homeland, Exile, and Sojourn by R. A. Salvatore. If you like fantasy you might want to check it out.

9:15 am - Started the job search for the day. Prepped it by setting up all the websites I would use later on. Began search.

9:43 am - Went back into the bedroom to read scriptures with my wife. We are nearing the end of Mosiah, where Alma the younger and the sons of Mosiah show up and is trying to destroy the church, then an Angel appears to tell them to knock it off. Lots of good stuff in there.

10:22 am - Walked into the kitchen to make breakfast for my wife and myself. She wanted cereal, Honey Nut Cheerios, and I decided to eat leftovers from the night before. Vanina doesn't like leftovers so I thought I'd save her from having to look at them in the fridge.

10:34 am - Began my french lesson for the day. I recently got the Rosetta Stone program and it is awesome. Je aprende le francais.

11:05 am - Wife left for some kind of modern day tea party at her best friend's place. Decided it was time to let off some stress/steam by chopping some heads off in Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 on the PS3. This game not only has out of this world graphics, but it is also pleasantly challenging.

12:30 pm - Decided to eat again, yes it's only been two hours but I am only partially the master of my stomach. It was leftover time again, last night's pasta tasted even better today.

1:00 pm - Job hunt kicks into high gear.

2:02 pm - Wife calls to tell me she's gonna be late, she's going to hang out with her sister for a while.

3:00 pm - High gear can only last so long. Turned on the Tivo to watch Eraser while I continue applying and searching. The search continues...

3:30 pm - Wife comes home and fills me in on how her day has gone, and how her sister Vanessa is having a terrible day.

Sometime between 3:33 pm and 5:40 pm - It's almsot like an episode of Lost except with a whole lot less retarded time travel and a whole lot more job searching. So I guess it wasn't so similar to Lost except that I felt lost in my job hunt.

5:44 pm - Went to get ready for my date with my wife.

5:55 pm - Got sidetracked in getting ready...

6:33 pm - Finished getting ready.

6:36 pm - Left for our date.

6:56 pm - Arrived at Crown Burgers for dinner. Ate good food. Greasy, fast-food, and terrible for us, but oh so good.

7:25 pm - Purchased useless tickets at the electronic ticket booth in the theater. Walked right into the theater without ever seeing the ticket checking person. Watched The Blind Side.

9:10 pm - Got some dust or something in my eye and it started watering like crazy.

9:32 pm - Left the movie theater and returned home.

10:53 pm - Finished my blog entry.

Thats a day in the life...
