Awkward.

I wish I had enough time to document all the guilty pleasures I entertain privately, but time simply won’t permit.

Time will however allow me to quickly give some mad love to the creators of the show Awkward.

A show that isn’t geared for straight guys edging on 35… but for some strange reason it has a crazy grip on me.

The show revolves around a central character by the name of Jenna Hamilton. She’s sorta cute, sorta smart and sorta popular for all the wrong reasons.

She has a stalker who started a band called “JennaLives” (referencing an accident she had at home, causing everyone in town to think she tried to commit suicide)

She has an arch enemy… an evil girl who recently referred to her as “Jenna Hamiltoe”

She also has an oversexed best friend who may or may not be dating a guy named Ricky.

Anyhoo… hardly anyone watches this show, but you should start so we can talk about it.

The team I work with has had an incredibly taxing week… I left my desk, drove down to my nearest McDonalds and proceeded to pick up Milkshakes in every shade so that we could all just sit back for 20 minutes and forget how bad our phone call was.

People smiled and we moved on… Milkshakes make the world go round

I stayed behind a little late today to help move a number of computers with the I.T. team. I don’t work in the IT department anymore and they never stop teasing me about it… so I wanted to make sure they knew that I would always help them regardless of what department I report to.

I got to get my hands on the Nexus 7 today… my friend/co-worker Eric got it last week and it’s possibly the best Android product I’ve ever picked up.

The form factor and size is pretty dope. Hopefully, Apple will come out with an iPad in the same size.

I wish I could get a handle on the electrical circuits at my apartment… every now and again, I have to reach into the fuse box to correct outlets or light switches that don’t seem to be working…

The incomparable Jonathan Richman

Rollie Agado July 22, 2012

A few weeks ago, I asked a few of my friends to meet me at the Karova to see Jonathan Richman.

It was my 2nd Jonathan Richman live experience and I felt compelled to get as many people who had never had the pleasure of seeing him live, come out and join me.

The evening was a little strange, due largely in part to Jonathan insisting that the AC be turned off so that he could make the evening more intimate, which really just meant that he wanted all of us to sweat and suffer together.

Jonathan is a throwback in every way imaginable and I would drive insanely long distances to see him perform again.

Below is a photo I took from the foot of the stage…
