just watched my last Freaks and Geeks. i'm sad about that. i got teary in the end when Lindsey met up with Kim after getting off the bus. i was really happy for her. (and so totally jealous of the VW bus)
man, i just really like Daniel. aka James Franco. watching him and Seth Rogen makes me want to see Pineapple Express. but then i think about it and i really don't want to see it. Dafe, Renee: have you seen that movie?
man it's just really sad when you finish watching a tv series. and with Freaks and Geeks, there's no more. it's all over. it will be the same with Veronica Mars when i finish that. it's like, you kind of feel like you're really friends with all these people. is that normal? or just because i have no friends around me?
anyways. my final analysis of Freaks and Geeks was that it was totally great. super funny and super sweet. why was it cancelled?
moving on. today is tuesday. i finally went to sleep around 6am, i think. it was a very rough and frustrating night. and i'm preparing for another one tonight.
staff meeting was good. then we had a meeting with a resident to discuss things discussed in staff meeting and that went very badly. we met in the basement and as she stormed out of the room screaming and swearing, we could still hear her screaming and swearing all the way outside, all the way onto the porch and all the way in the living room. not a success.
but then i was able to escape into Freaks and Geeks, whereas the rest of the staff had to go back to work. so, i was lucky in that sense. but, i have to deal with it all night. without any other staff around. so, unlucky there.
i think that's also what makes it more frustrating at night, is that i have nobody to complain or vent to.
wow. so i just got a phone call from my boss. tonight should pretty much suck! great news. now i don't know whether to take a nap or cry.
man. okay, when's my next night off?
know what i need? i need to go back to Ireland and sit on the Hill of Tara. if i could teleport, that's where i would go right now. and then i would teleport myself to that bar in Doolin and drink lots of Bulmer's.
ok. i don't know what i'm gonna do right now. man. now i'm really dreading the overnight. 5 hours of freedom. 10 hours of crap. then 7.5 hours of more freedom. and then 16.5 hours of probable crap. the cycle continues, 7.5 hours of freedom. 16.5 hours of crap. and then it's friday! and i have the whole day off.
i think i'll go find Ruby Tuesday and give her a kiss and a hug.

Hi Julie,
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you liked Freaks and Geeks. I saw Pineapple Express, and thought it was OK but not great. You can watch it instantly online at netflix. I would much more strongly recommend that you watch Undeclared, which is very very very loosely a follow up to Freaks and Geeks. Same creators and directors, and a couple of the same actors. Seth Rogen is one of the stars, and Jason Segal is in a few episodes too. Martin Starr who plays Bill is in one episode. Kyle Gass, the non-Jack Black half of Tenacious D is in a couple episodes. It is not as good as Freaks and Geeks, but still funny with good characters. Cancelled after one season as well.
I hope your night is not too miserable, stick with Ruby Tuesday as much as possible. I am a strong proponent of cat therapy.
oh man.
ReplyDeletethe end of freaks and geeks is kinda a bummer. its the end! your friends are gone! i always watched "brokeback mountain" and thought, "oh, lindsay must have gone off to the mountains after the dead tour. huh." i miss all those freaks and geeks -- my friends!!
also, let me know when you get the teleport machine going, and i'm totally in doolin with you. although, i might choose ennis instead.
