As most of you no doubt know, I do have central air in my house. Thus far this summer has actually been hot enough to warrant its near constant usage. You also know that I rarely leave my room if I am at home and not in the pool. I go to the pool to seek refuge from the heat, the same reason we have central air. However, all is not right in Cammyland. As noted in the above IM conversation with BF, my room is running about 10 degrees hotter than the rest of the house. Right now it is 79.6 and holding steady. I know cuz I have a digital thermometer sitting on the futon right now. The AC is set at 71, meaning the rest of the house is down in that general range. Meanwhile, I'm up here in hell getting more delirious and dehydrated by the second. So on with the show.
If anyone cares, http://nikon.bungie.org/oldnews.html?item=13216 They're gonna be making a Halo movie. The guy who wrote the script also wrote 28 days later, which was a killer movie. Even though Halo 2 was sort of a flop in my eyes as a game, I still very much enjoy the story line and concept of the game franchise; be it in the form of the 2 games or the 3 novels that were written. But enough of sounding like a complete and total nerd.
The ear saga continues. I went to the Docs today and was dealt some pretty bad news. Apparently I broke one of the bones in my right ear, the hammer shaped one. The combination of wrestling in the pool plus the water pressure is what did it I'm told. So at the moment I only have about 25% function in my right ear. I'm slated for surgery to fix the problem in 2 weeks, which will make a nice birthday present. I won't be able to swim or be subjected to loud noises for a month after surgery. Which means goodbye summer, goodbye all the concerts I was going to attend. One time I claimed that of any of the possible ailments, blindness, deafness, etc that I'd take being deaf over all of them. Wrong. I'd rather be a mute. At least I could still hear, see and taste shit. You don't have to be able to talk to communicate these days anyways.
Tonight I watched a couple of terrible TV shows with Tos and BF. (what you think I'll be embarrassed alone?) That Nanny 911 show and Hell's kitchen. Nanny 911 is about parents with out of control kids who get sent some pro nanny from England for a week to whip the family into shape. Worst show ever. Seriously, how do shows like that get picked up let alone funded and last more than 2 episodes? Hell's Kitchen was by far the lesser of the 2 evils, if only because I work in a kitchen myself. The premise is that 12 people want to own their own restaurant so they get trained/work with the #1 chef from the last decade who happens to also be English. They are paired into teams and have to cook in real and made up scenarios. Then each episode the master guy eliminates one potential cook. The funniest part is, some of the people on this show aren't even cooks or have never worked in a restaurant before. I'm better than half of them, which doesn't say much. Anyways the master dude is a dick and some people quit and there's the usual TV drama. That said there's 8 left of 12 and Ralph or Mike is gonna win. The shows only been on 2 weeks and I can predict that accurately already.
By the way, i was only kidding about the whole ear thing. It was just plugged up, i got it flushed out, took 5 minutes and everything's normal.
