My unemployed fantasy day

I've been having a bit of the unemploment envy lately so today I decided to model my day after a combination of activities my jobless friends seem to take forgranted

The fantasy day actually started late last night (in the am hours, of course) when I went to a free show at Taix and let a friend buy me a drink. I went home once the mooching was no more and indulged in Miller Lites left by a friend after Rock Band night. I stayed up until 4am watching Entourage DVDs and passed out without any concern for setting an alarm

Since I was playing unemployed, I ignored work calling and went back to sleep until I saw a PM flashing from the bedside table. I stumbled out of bed, finished the last beer from the night before, plopped down on the couch and started watching TV again. A few episodes in I decided to call one of my working friends and talk about the day's goal (watching the entire 5th season of Entourage). I feigned annoyance when he had to hang up and go back to work, but let Ari Gold do the bulk of the fuming for me

Since I wasn't generating an income today, I had two choices for lunch: either scrounge up something resembling a meal from the cupboards or take some CDs to Amoeba so I could buy Jack in the Box. As I had decided not to shower for the day (and because I had a cherry parking spot) I went for plan A and cooked up some Ralph's spaghetti with sale pasta sauce. Since I'm no heathen, I mixed in some Tony Chachere's spicy cajun seasoning for flavor

Wait, wait...I feel like there was something between eating and Entourage...a nap? No, just a bunch of TV viewing. And TMZ, of course

After the DVDs had been watched I switched to Rock Band and annoyed my neighbors for a solid hour and a half playing drums on hard. I looked at Kid Robot action figures on ebay for awhile, checked facebook, thought about going downstairs to get Thai food, and then played Rock Band a little more. Still up and watching late night TV, cursing the furniture stores for choosing the week after I bought my bed to have a sale (wait, I bought that with money. Unemployed people don't have money. Better stop this hating immediately...)

Anyhoo, it's been a nice day. I acknowledged that I should have done laundry, the dishes, cleaned the cat box, the house, redeemed the recycling and showered. I did none of those things. It's been a great taste of unemployment today. Smooches
