Music Radio Christianity http://sleepdeprivedone.blogdrive.com/archive/14.html Tue, 08 Feb 2005 12:17:46 GMT O.K. I guess I shouldn't complain. I'm going to be getting $600 extra dollars a month. But the sacrifice of even more sleep should have made me pause and at least think about what the heck I'm doing. What am I doing.....oh yeah....working too many hours for too little pay. But, I'm told that if I stick it out...and work hard enough....I'll eventually get downsized without the benefit of social security to pick up the slack. Hmmm....Ok...so back to the original reason for this post. I've gotten a new news position at WSAE, the school's radio station. I love doing it....but I have to...

I like to think of myself as optomistic...but hey....sometimes work sucks. My bosses don't appreciate me. And when they say they do....I know it's a lie. Sometimes I wonder why I try so hard for so little in return. Is it for the internal satisfaction of knowing I did a good job? Is it just a way to pass the time? Is it to please those that love me? All I really know is I have two jobs...go to school full time...try to lead worship every Wednesday evening at church...spend time with my...

All I want is to have one or two days a week where I don't have to do anything. Where I can just sit around and do nothing. But it's always something. Call this person, Pay this bill, Run this errand, Try and fit 26 hours of work into 24 hours of day. I just wish I could have a job that paid me enough that I only had to work one job instead of two,and not that I've made a commitment to work harder on my music (I write and play worship music), And the desire that I have to put on a concert to help...

It's pretty simple. I get 100 bucks to give his dog 1 hot dog, 1 slice of ham, and some kibble, and to let him outside every few hours. Plus, cable tv, laundry, and air conditioning. It's a joy. But anyway. It does put a serious cramp in my style. Now, I've got to drive into Jackson every other day to make sure my Dad hasn't passed into the unknown, and I've got to sleep in my professor's bed for two weeks! Tell me, Is there anything creepier than sleeping in someone's bed who has the power to give you an F? ...

Boring...but at least I'm getting paid to sit around and push buttons. Like I said earlier, a trained monkey could do this job. I'm now falling into a deep slumber induced by about 48 hours of no sleep. My eylids are falling down as we speak. We are trapped...They are coming...The drums...They are coming.............. ...................... ...................... http://sleepdeprivedone.blogdrive.com/comments?id=10 http://sleepdeprivedone.blogdrive.com/archive/9.html Mon, 21 Jun 2004 20:35:45 GMT Ok....Another threshold has been crossed. Another boundary been broken. Another Item of today's culture has seriously pissed me off. Have you gotten Emails that contains something like this? THE PROPOSITION: A foreigner, late Mr Grahams Peterson, an Oil Merchant/Contractor with the Federal Govenment of Nigeria, until his death three years ago in a ghastly auto crash, banked with us here at International Trust Bank Plc, Lagos, and had a closing balance of USD$21.5M ( Twenty-One Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars only) which the bank...

But I am going to go sing Karaoke this evening after going swimming with my beautiful fiance...Jessica. This is one of the few things that I do to unwind. I should probably try to find an open mic night somewhere close by, but I'm pretty sure that the closest one is in Ann Arbor, and while It's not that Far Away...and Gas prices are dropping, I just don't have the cashflow right now. Speaking of cashflow...I now have less hours at work, due to the 2004 NBA Champion Detroit Pistons. Let me explain...I board op for sports games at the radio station I work at. ...

But there are days I ask myself...why would anyone really do this??? Why would anyone put up with office politics and deal with a boss who hates you just because you have a penis??? I'm serious. The men at the radio station I work at get the shaft, and have to claw and drag their way into our bosses good graces, while it seems that the females can do nothing wrong. All I try to do is make my few hours of precious air time sound the best it can with the most current Music...but apparently having asspirations of greatness is something frowned upon at this radio...

It's so great that not everyone uses their blog to complain about the world. If you just need a little dose of sunshine, check this blog out. http://buglady.blogdrive.com Even I'm guilty of complaining all the time. Maybe it's because we think that it's funny, or that others will identify with it. but it makes me smile to see someone actually taking the time to make others feel better! http://sleepdeprivedone.blogdrive.com/comments?id=6 http://sleepdeprivedone.blogdrive.com/archive/5.html Tue, 15 Jun 2004 18:29:38 GMT Call me stupid. Call me insane. But for some reason, I decided to stay awake untill 4 in the morning last night. It was stupid. Maybe not insane...but then again do crazy people know that their crazy? I know it's my own fault. I should have gone to bed at 1, instead of forcing myself to keep my eyelids open for another three hours. It's now 1:20 in the afternoon, and I slept all night on my friend Josh's couch. I'm exhausted. And he has absolutely no food in his apartment. I mean seriously, I'm starving here. You know...even a cruton or two would be nice. My head feels like I've... (more) http://sleepdeprivedone.blogdrive.com/comments?id=5
