<editorsnote>Hi, I'm Jen Friel, and we here at TNTML examine the lives of nerds outside of the basements and into the social media, and dating world. We have over 75 peeps that write about their life in real time. (Real nerds, real time, real deal.) Sit back, relax, and enjoy some of the stories!!</editorsnote>
So there I was... wait, I don't know where I'm going with that, but hi! Hope each and every one of you is doing fantastic. So, due to extenuating circumstances, my date has been pushed back to Thursday. Booo, I don't want to have to wait that long! Bummer, but worth it. I am waiting to watch the newest episode of Dexter so that I can see it with her. I know, crazy. I never wait! Haha, so anyway. Let's get down to business. You Laugh, You Lose! For those of you that are new kids on the block, this is how we play. I show you a few pictures, and if at any point you laugh, you lose. When you lose you have to "like" us on Facebook. Let's do it! (That's what she said cc: @JenFriel)
Gosh, you are a bunch of losers! I mean... that you obviously lost... not that you're... nevermind. Just like us on Facebook. We're awesome!
So I'm friends with David Faustino on Facebook, better known to the nerd culture as Bud Bundy. Yep, this dude.
Still don't know who he is? Then leave. Like for reals, I don't know any nerds that didn't watch Married with Children back in the day. Alrite, just go get it on Netflix then ... and come back ... I'll just sit here twiddling my thumbs.
*whistles*
David posts the funniest shit on Facebook. Like tonight's gem:
Heading to a dinner in Melbourne where Im the 'guest of honor'. Think ill get shit-faced & make an ass of myself. #ChildStarSyndrome.
Totally unrelated picture. Just made me smile.DUDESS!! So, today kinda made my life. I got a call from the peeps over at the Ford Focus Rally, and found out that my audition time is this Wednesday!!! SUPPERRRR stoked!!!! I immediately called Lindsay completely tripping, as I had to make sure she was available as well.
And AHHHH!!! So excited!!! Talk about SMART!! Even though I was technically hired by Bertram for his bio, I never accepted a paycheck, and he never even published what I wrote. Don't get me wrong ... I take pride in that 7 page masterpiece of bio-ness. But, after reading the contracts they sent over, if I had actually accepted payment and been an official employee, it would have effected my participation. HAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHAAH!!!!! That = epic. So this man just got to inspire the bejesus out of me, and I got to have all those meetings with him telling him what I knew ... I mean come ON!!!! Life is so illogical. I kept telling my parents, and friends that I couldn't invoice him. Even when I was HOMELESS I could have sent that man an invoice and gotten out of it. But, it never felt right. Two things to follow in life: Feels good/ doesn't feel good. I knew there was a bigger prize. It made no sense to me at the time, and trust, everyone thought I was bat shit crazy ... but now, I'm pretty grateful. It presented itself with yet another pretty awesome opportunity, and I'm just gonna go with it. Cause that's what I do ... andddd yah! AND!! OMG OMG OMG!!!! Production runs from January 2011 - March 2011 tentatively. That means 3 months of a stress free place and or car to live. YAY!!!!
Dude, its HIGH-LARIOUS I am totally the mayor of the casting office. Now if that's not some SERIOUSLY epic usage of social media, I don't know what is.
W00t! W00t!!! Time for the happy dance!
OH and PS. My partner in this movement has both jumped out of a plane and milked a goat. This is why Lindsay is on my Zombie Apocalypse list. AHHHMAZIINNGG!!!
