And I’m pretty tired, but I just wanted to post a short blog because I can before I pass out.
Today was by far the busiest day I’ve had in a while because of everything that I had to do in a short time span.
Now, here’s what I had to do.
- 11:30 a.m. — Wake up and do a conference call immediately with Roy Nelson, Kimbo Slice, Brenden Schaub and Houston Alexander.
- 1 p.m. — Immediately, after I chatted with Yahoo Sports’ Kevin Iole about Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. That was an informative and fun conversation, which should make a fun little column.
- 2 p.m. — Immediately after, go to work to start my page shift AND write the preview capsule for the Dixie State Classic happening today (Friday Dec. 4).
- 3 p.m. — Hold a 10-minute interview Rashad Evans.
- 6:30 p.m. — Finish up page shift before driving 15 miles to cover a girls high school basketball game.
- 7:30 p.m. — Watch said Basketball game
- 10 p.m. — Return to office, write story, edit pages and then go home.
- 12:45 a.m. — Upon arriving at home, I sit down and watch the latest episode of Friday Night Lights, had a guy cry moment. While helping my friend Andi with her soc paper.
And that timeline brings us to now (3:12 a.m.), and I’m freaking tired. Combine that with the fact that I didn’t have the best night of sleep given the text messages and phone calls I was receiving late at night. Either way, I know it sounds like I’m complaining, but I really am not. I just figured, I have nothing else to do at 3:06 a.m. (Now it’s 3:14 a.m.) other than to write my blog.
So there it is, and now it’s 3:15 a.m. and I’m going to bed. I’ll blog again soon.
Special Thanks…

So I just wanted to put this up at 11 p.m. PST, since I am in Las Vegas, spending Thanksgiving thank you blog.
But first what I’m thankful for:
- My health — I’m alive.
- My friends — They’re a support system
- My family — See above
- My bosses — Always seem to work out for me
- My teachers — Always willing to bend my arm awkwardly to understand the message.
- MMA — The Sport that is my personal favorite
- A job — We’re in a recession duh!
- You — For reading
I have attached a video blog to this post for everyone. I know I forgot a few people, and for that I truly do apologize because it’s hard trying to thank the so many people in my life without forgetting one or two of you. If I did, sorry again. I’ll catch ya next time.
I’ll be updating again soon.
But until then. Enjoy the break. Peace.
