Content Free July?

Sorry about the lack of podcasts recently...or anything really.  That is unless you've frequented the Freakin' Awesome Network where I've been continuing my Wrestling With Extra Sleaze column.  But other than that, I haven't done a damn thing, and it doesn't look like it's going to get any better for the rest of this month here at Sarcasmatron.  Last week, I didn't feel like doing much at all.  No podcasts, no stand-up comedy, no nothing.  And now it seems like what free time I have to write or do whatever (namely the weekends) is being taken up by other things.  For instance, this weekend, I'm not even doing anything for the July 4th holiday. However, I will be house/dogsitting for friends and I don't really feel comfortable writing on other people's equipment.  Hell, I barely get motivated to do it on my own equipment.  Then next weekend, not only will it be my birthday but I'll also be attending the Glass City Con here in Toledo, which I may be covering for FAN as well.  Then the weekend after that, I'll be heading to Cleveland with a few members of the V1kM crew as they'll be filming scenes for The Avengers there.  They're actually having a casting call too so we may end up in the movie, even if it just as random extras for a crowd scene.  Still, either way it should be fun.  But after that, things should be settled down and hopefully I'll have some podcasts ready to go at least.  That's it for now, gotta go watch a dog.

In Which I Brag About All The Stuff I Got For Christmas

Hey all, I hope you've all had a great Christmas season.  At first, I was a bit worried that I wouldn't due to me not having any Christmas spirit at all.  Over the years, it seemed as if my capability of feeling good and having the so-called "Christmas spirit" has gone down.  The novelty of Christmas music has faded a long time ago due to having it crammed down my throat while working years of retail and customer service.  I'm getting to the age where I don't really want much that I can't get myself.  And even buying presents for others, normally I'd be glad to shop for my family (particularly my nieces and nephews) but I get down on myself wanting to get them more than I can afford.  Also, much like last year, I actually didn't have anything to do on Christmas Day due to my family's celebrations schedule being shifted around.  But thankfully I did get to spend time with my family.  And even though I wasn't expecting to get much, I received more than enough presents.  Of course, I couldn't get the things I really want in life: namely a better paying job and a decent girl that won't ignore me or run away whenever I try to talk to her.  But until those come, I guess I have plenty else to occupy my time with.
