The Blizzard

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 28, 2008

I exaggerate about the snow a lot.  If it’s snowing at all, I think there is a blizzard.  I don’t really do snow.  Or cold.  So, I’m sitting on my bed watching TV on Christmas night and the weather man says there is a blizzard coming.  Six inches in 3 hours.  Awesome.  It’s mostly for [...]

Mega Fox

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 23, 2008

I read IMDb everyday.  It’s pretty easily my first source of news, followed by Jon Stewart.
Apparently, Fandango.com did a survey to find the sexiest movie stars.  Megan Fox topped the list for both men and women.  This one is a little bit of a shock to me.  My 21 year old brother is a big [...]

So, I figured out why I had so many hits for a couple days… turns out Sean P. Means decided to write about my blog in the Salt Lake City Tribune website.  Good thing I knew about that (please note all sarcasm).  So….

Words That Start With L

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 21, 2008

The last week of work has been pretty slow.  The Sundance ticketing test site has had some technical difficulties, so we had some free time at the end of the day.  We waited around to see if it would get fixed, but to pass the time we played Scattergories.  We ended up playing all 12 [...]

Search Results

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 20, 2008

Sometimes I like to look at my search results to see how people found my blog.  I’ve had some interesting ones lately.
For the 3 people that found my blog by searching “Christmas Fundies“- I hope you found what you were looking for.  I also hope this isn’t it.  Sorry to ruin your wholesome Christmas cheer.

Bowl Season

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 20, 2008

I cannot even explain how excited I am that College Bowl Season starts tomorrow.  I plan on doing nothing but watching football all day tomorrow.  And of course every game after that.
And my Fantasy Football obsession has lead me to the Bowl Pick’em series.
Here are my picks (in order of  “confidence  points”):
34: Cotton Bowl- Texas [...]

Don’t Play With Scissors

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 18, 2008

A while ago, I decided that I was going to get side-swoopy bangs.  But after having them for a while I decided I was done, so last time I got my haircut I didn’t get them trimmed.  Well, yesterday I decided I wanted them again.  But since I just paid money to get  my haircut, [...]

Sundance: Volume One

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 18, 2008

So, I started my job at the Sundance Film Festival last Monday.  I’ve spent the last three days learning about the Institute, figuring out the ticketing system, reading tons of emails, and other work things.  Don’t get me wrong, my job is actually pretty good so far.  But the coolest thing about my job is [...]

The Long Week

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 14, 2008

Following the disasterous portion of the road trip, I did finally get to Las Vegas in one piece.  Destination- The Baseball Winter Meetings.  More specifically, the PBEO job fair.  Yeah, I’ve decided that after my careers as a Hollywood assistant and a Assistant Cruise Director, I’d take a chance with baseball. 
Let me explain the schedule [...]

The Worst Road Trip Ever

Posted by: dashtosomewhere on: December 6, 2008

I am 2/3 of the way through what is easily my worst road trip ever.  I considered writing this in a series of blogs, but if this keeps up I’ll have more material than I know what to do with.  Please god, don’t let this keep up.  Anyway, if this happened to someone else, or [...]
