During the hiatus – Day 4

I think I was given the biggest honor of my entire life last night by the creator of my favorite show, Freaks and Geeks. Let me give you a little background before I give you the nitty gritty. As most of you know, or maybe dont know, I’m the creator of the Freaks and Geeks fan site. I’ve been doing that site for about four months or so, since the show’s inception. The site has had over 14,000 visitors and is considered the top fan site, something I’m extrememly proud of.

Anyhow, last night was the William F. Paley festival in which Freaks and Geeks was honored. The festival basically shows an episode of the show and then has a Q & A for the cast. I wish I could have been able to attend, but I thought I would have to work and didnt buy a tickey, now I’m kicking myself.

So, I’ve begged, borrowed and stole to get information about the night and what everyone thought of it. Then to my complete surprise, I’m told that the first thing the creator, Paul Feig, asked the audience, is whether “[Me] or TV’s Henry was in the audience?”. So, I nearly fell on the floor at the thought of my name being uttered by the shows creator and to an entire room of people. I think it is the biggest honor of my entire life. I’m still in awe right now, that it even happened. I’m sure you all think I’m a big kook at this point, but if someone from your favorite show knew who you were, you be doing backflips also. Erm, not that I can do a backflip, but I’m thinking that if I could, I’d be doing one or two.

On another note, love is in the air. Well, maybe not luuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrve, but well friendship at this point, with the possibility of much like. Erm, maybe Wifey™ can explain this better, but I’ve been talking to a french girl from canada and we’ve been getting along quite well. We’ve decided to get married also. I guess I should mention that. And so, you are all invited to the wedding. We should probably meet first, but over ICQ we get along pretty well. Maybe the luuuuurrrrve doctor will finally get some lovin’ of his own.

I’m chatting with my french girl right now, so I may have to cut this short.

Today was the first sunny day of the year, here in the Bay Area. I know everyone thinks that California is this sunny place where all the surfers live, but I’m not a surfer, I dont sound like one and I dont ever see sun living here. So, you all just need to get that thought right out of your head. Go ahead, get it out of your head, it’s NOT sunny here.

Dinner with the friends Friday night was nice. It’s always nice to see friends, but at the same time it can be awkward and strange. Okay, so here’s the story. See everyone is either married or getting married, except for me. They are also more grown up now. I remember going out before was so much fun, because we were just hanging out. Now it seems like they are trying to impress each other more, through conversation or things they’ve bought. Personally, I dont care if they are thinking of buying a new truck or whatever, but they seem to like talking about stuff like that now.

Also, when Les and I hang out we have tons of fun and usually end up in laughing fits. However, when Cindy is around he becomes extremely different. He barely talks and doesnt joke around as much, for fear he’ll say something to make her mad. I just know it is. She gives him these looks when he says certain things and I just know that there is going to be hell to pay later on. He has even started giving me looks when I say things because he’s knows that he’s going to have to pay for what I say. It’s becoming a pain in the ass to hang out with friends and I’m starting to feel like I’m losing them. Not really losing them, but it’s just becoming less and less fun to hang out with them. I’m single, I want to act single and do single things, and my friends want to have dinner parties and do old, married couple things that leave me feeling like the third wheel. Anyhow, the dinner was nice, but it’s just not feeling like it used to.

Well, I’m wanting to come out of hiatus but I think I’ll let it go on just a little longer. I let Tim see the redesign, because I value his opinion just as much as a few others. I’ve got to talk to my french girl now.
