KingLou Drops Science 2.0

Holy Jesus was I depressed this weekend. Thats two weekends in a row now that I've been in the grips of this nastiness. Not good. Kind of culmination of a lot of different thing piling up at once but seriously I don't think I've been that inconsolably depressed in a long long time. Felt like college again. We've been kind of overwhelmed with crappy news lately. First Jodi got the stomach flu that Ace & I had. The funny thing about that was that Jodi refused to take my advice about what do to for the illness even though I just gone through the same thing. I had to pester her to use the heating pad and advils. She is seriously resistant to all suggsestions "Lou". Secondly Jodi didn't get the job she was really hoping she'd get over the last few months. It was kind of a blow. She had a lot of people pulling for her to get that job and things were looking good there for a while. Then suddenly things went a little weird and boom. No job. In an unexpected turn they did give her a lead on another job which has certainly never happened to me on a job interview. I'll be glad if I get a rejection call about the job. Usually it's like "Man, I applied for that a while ago... oh they took it down."

My comedy mind has been racing lately. Reviving old ideas. Thinking about new ones. I need to produce something of comedy worth soon or I don't know what will happen. I was complaining about this recently and a friend tried to cheer me up by saying "Lou, today is the 1st day of the rest of your WHY ARE YOU CHOKING ME?" Which I thought was funny. But I still felt compelled to reply "Today is the first day of the rest of your inability to make your dreams come true due to the crushing demands of your life and your own inability to produce work." This statement basically brought the discussion to a close.

The search for a school for Ace continues to appear totally fruitless. I don't know how people get their kids into schools in this city. It's basically totally criminal how overwhelmed the school system is. In other Ace news he has really exploded verbally. Just talking a mile a minute about total crap. It's pretty entertaining when it isn't totally annoying.
