Conan O'Brien in His First Post-NBC Interview


Conan O'Brien is Love

First of all, I think Jay Leno is a jerk. I haven't ever been a big fan of his, and always have favored watching David Letterman over Jay Leno. However, sometimes I have watched Leno's show(s). For the last while ever since Conan's brief job hosting The Tonight Show went south, I have effectively boycotted Jay Leno. I haven't watched one minute of him on TV. I think he's a JERK for taking a job back after leaving it. Granted, it's not all his fault. NBC is very much to blame as well. I think they handled the whole thing unwisely. Anyway, Conan just filmed his first interview and he pretty much says what I feel. In the interview Conan said that he would not have "surrendered 'The Tonight Show' and handed it over to somebody publicly and wished them well -- and then ... six months later [taken it back]... But that's me, you know." I think Conan's totally right that Jay was pretty lame in doing so.

Anyway, I think Conan's hilarious. I hope his new TBS show does well.

On to much more important things in my life, I'm kinda sorta graduating this week. It's really weird. Everyone asks if I'm excited, and I don't really know how to answer. I know I should be, but I guess the actual emotion just isn't there. I think I'm pretty freaked out about law school and that is why graduating isn't really sinking in. I am pretty excited about doing new adventurous things, but I just don't feel much about actually graduating. It's odd.

I've applied for my loans and stuff at George Mason, so that's about a done deal. I still feel like I'll go to BYU and possibly Utah if they take me off of their waiting lists. It's hard to not accept a much much cheaper offer from a school that is ranked the exact same and probably can get me a job just as well.

Speaking of jobs... does ANYONE out there have one for me? I really really don't want to end up with a lame summer job again. Especially now that I'm all awesome and have a college degree, (hahaha). I don't feel like a college degree is helping me out much, especially because it's in history. What do I do with that? I think I'm just going to have to settle for a not-so-great job and just suck it up. We'll see. If only I could make more money with this blog. Thus far I've managed to rake in about 40 bucks. Woot!

Well, I think that's about it. See y'all later!

Bye.

Still a tough decision... what do you have to say, Danny Glover?

So, I'm just chillin' here at work, bored out my skull.  (As you can see from totally random video I just put on youtube.)

I got waitlisted at BYU afterall, so my choice is narrowed a bit.  My current plan, which could change within the next week or so, is to pay my seat deposits at Arizona State and George Mason, and then see if I don't come off the waiting list of any of BYU, Utah, or (haha) William and Mary.  Again, Houston could only change my mind at this point by offering some crazy scholarship, and the other schools are pretty much done.  I'm withdrawing from Akron and Cincinnati, just to declutter my decision a bit. (Update: actually, I can't get myself to send these emails.  I'm having such a hard time ruling schools out entirely.  Arg.)  This is still a really tough decision for me though.  I wish that a brick would fall from the sky, shatter upon impact with my parking lot, reveal a hidden scroll within that unrolls, and proclaims the law school that is perfect for me.  Somehow I doubt that will happen.  Just a hunch.

Anyway, life's good.  I can kind of taste graduation now.  I just found out that none other than the famous star from such blockbusters as Lethal Weapon, The Rainmaker, and Lethal Weapon 4, the incomparable, outstanding, groovy kick-trash cool actor, Danny Glover will be the commencement speaker at our graduation!  Awesome.

K, see ya.
