WWTBAM Bored

Today I got the e-mail reminding me that I'm registered to take the J! online test. I've been watching the show, and they've been promoting it for the past couple weeks.

I know what I'm doing tomorrow at 8pm EST.

I know what I'll be doing: Playing NTN. I'll do the test on Wednesday.

I'm as ready as I'm going to be!

Good luck everyone!!

Good luck, Kazoo and Everybody!

Go get 'em!!!

I have plans Tuesday night so I will take it Wednesday night.

Best wishes, slam & co.

H-Bomb, reporting for duty on the East Coast test.

So, I got an answer on the J! board about how L.A. auditions work.

Even though it wasn't the answer I wanted, L.A. is still the best option for flying. I can get a flight for a reasonable price with enough notice.

So, it's either sign up for L.A. or pass on this year.

I'm still debating.

I think you should go for it!

I hope I'll be taking the test. Last year we had a thunderstorm that interrupted power right in the middle of the test; this year the forecasters are predicting several inches of ice that could cause power interruptions in some areas. I just hope I'm not in one of those areas.

I will fail again.

I will enjoy my failure.

I will take it.

I will pass this time.

I will enjoy it, period.

That's the ticket!

A mantra for tonight.....

I will pass this time. I will pass this time. I will pass this time.

No. But good luck to those taking the test.

There is a big snowstorm coming. Well, biggish. The last biggish one actually managed to surprise them, because they thought it would be smallish.

Biggish snow isn't coming 'til dawn, & test is at 8:00pm the night before. However, I'm staying at work to take it, which means I get to catch up on part of an Episode of "The Mentalist" that got time shifted beyond the capture-time I'd set on my VCR, & otherwise doodle on the computer 'til 8:00pm.

Then I get to take test. Which last year I did not pass. Didn't pass the only in-hotel test I've taken either, though I passed the Brain Bus test before it, after failing one of those earlier too.

Then I get to rush home & circle my block in ever-widening circles looking for a parking spot on a main street that I will have to shovel myself out of as soon as the snow falls so that I will actually be able to move my car in a few days time. Before a few days time there will be no parking spaces near where I park for my 8-block walk to work, so its not worth even getting out of the space. Unless I get very snow-crazy & feel I need to drive to store not within walking distance, or something.

Tuesday and Wednesday nights at 8 pm are American Idol times! Are the Jeopardy! TPTB a bunch of Commies or something? Is this what we can expect from the failed Obama administration?

Maybe they just realize that all the intelligent people will have nothing better to do at those times....

There are some things I prefer to be dumb about.....

You gonna go for 3,000 this morning, or should I go ahead and go to bed?

When I took the Jeopardy test, I just did it for funsies because I didn't think I'd actually get picked for an audition, so I just did it while I was watching tv. It's not hard and you get plenty of time.

Although if I hadn't only been paying partial attention to it I might have realized that pig doesn't start with a U, but ungulate does. Ha!

I'm lucky if I can hang out on the computer and pay attention to what's on the TV at the same time....

And did you ever try calling the Pop Up Video tip line to see if anyone still answered?

I don't suppose you can try to take it on Tuesday, but if something goes wrong you can try again on Wednesday? I just remember the days of the phone game where I'd make sure all the kids were occupied by dad before I dialled, and that was a lot shorter than 10 minutes.

Right now I'm dealing with dad out of town, oldest son home with a fever of 101, and youngest one probably not sick, but she did hack up dinner last night--I'm guessing (hoping) she just got something stuck in her throat.

Ten minutes can be an eternity around here...
