Uwtl yet again, but it's friday nightttt and I feel alriiiiight. Taking the F to the C train, where I'll get off in Brooklyn in my neighborhood. I'm writing this blog in the melody of the song "This is How We Do It," a Montel Jordan jam from back in the 1990s. "Designated driver got the keys to my truck". Something, something, something. When I get back will I try to work or wa-atch 30 Rock?
Not exactly su-ure, but I can tell you it'll prob be a show on NBC.
Lakers defeat Thunder. Next up Jazz in Round 2.
Goodnight y'all.

Booyakasha to being uwtl yet again. TGTIF (thank god tomorrow is friday). Big weekend, lots o celebrations and a ton of sun as well.
Lakers will drown the Thunder friday evening and it's on to the next one.
So down for sleep.
P.S. this is me in formal wear tuesday night. The pink tie is because it was a breast cancer foundation event. And Elton John performed too, making pink more than appropriate. Will I ever again wear a pink tie? Who knows? Other colors first probs.

Gonna make this short and sweet. I should be long asleep by now but Twitter is like caffeine except more addictive for me.
The Lakers had game 5 wrapped up at the half. Thus I should have gone to sleep. But my 7th grade teacher facebook messaged me a link to a sleazy video of Kim Kardashian and some other chick that consisted of still photos of them in montage form, set to rap music. My middle school teachers were the best haha.
Anywho, great success tonight. Saw Elton John perform at a hoitie toitie NYC benefit dinner. Lakers won. AMAZING. Time to get er done on Friday.

Blog blog blog. Friggin LA playoff games, keeping me uwtl and such. Just fastforwarded through the entire Kings Canucks game 4, very exciting flash of a game but did not end well at all.
My beloved Kings now find themselves tied 2-2 in the best of 7 series, heading back to Vancouver with home ice out the window. At least the Lakers are playing at the top of their game-
Oh, wait. They've barely beaten the wet behind the ears OKC Thunder in two home playoff games. Two more games from now the Lakers could also be sitting in a 2-2 series tie.
For productivity's sake, early playoff exits by my teams would be a positive. But for overall cheeriness and well being sake, I hope they continue to keep me uwtl.

This edition of jiuwtl, brought to you by the time difference on the east coast and the LA Lakers continuing mission to give all of their fans cause for concerns.
OKC is good, i'll give them that. But come on Kobe and Co. you're supposed to be the best. Up 3 with under 4 minutes to play in game 2 of the first round is just not acceptable. Here's hoping that road cooking is just what we need to look like a dominant team again.
That is all I have to share for tonight. If I fall asleep before the game is through, maybe it's for the best. A 6:30 AM wakeup tomorrow will be even more tough if I do indeed go to sleep coming off a loss.
Look to jeremyisupwaytooearly.tumblr.com for reaction to the final score.

Sunday April 18th, 2010
Uwte on a sunday, not too typical. Haven't posted in this for awhile despite having been uwtl quite a few times this week either in the staying up or waking up department.
Tonight's culprit is a movie shoot i'm helping out this weekend and next. It's a friend of a friend's film (my buddy is producing it and i've hung with the director a couple times.
While driving home from the first day of shooting last night, it came to my attention that this 25 minute opus of a short was based on a couple episodes of the original Beverly Hills 90210. The main characters are Brenda, Stuart, Dylan and Brandon. Considering when I read the script I had no idea of the connection, I can assure you the project is a slight dose of random, absurd, mayhem.
That being said there's good people working on it and it's nice to actually be involved in making a movie once in awhile rather than just thinking and talking about making movies. Kind of makes me want to get one of my own things off the ground soon, cause for me if you're gonna give up a few days of your life and become sleep deprived, it may as well be your own project.
Going to sleep definitely too late considering i'm more or less starting an internship tomorrow. Thus for the first time in months I actually have somewhere to be in the morning. Both excited and nervous about it as I hope i'll quickly adjust to a bit more on my plate, and not let my own projects fall by the wayside. The gig is only 9-1 mon-thurs to start so it shouldn't be too bad, hopefully it will get me firing on all cylinders and prepare me for the next big bad industry job.
Anywho, feeling pretty good all around. All is well and looking forward to a good week after last week's hectic but great one.

Writing this post on the subway, heading back from a comedy show in the city. In all likelihood, Monday night will probably consistently result in a post. Not the ideal way to start the weekly crusade for a good night's sleep, but I'm a sucker for free jokes.
Saw Tim Burton's BATMAN on the big screen today, Good 80's fun. I was kinda taken aback by how many similar scenes were in THE DARK KNIGHT, the most recent depiction of Gotham city, descended into chaos at the hands of The Joker. The movies are very different of course both visually and tonally. One huge and very cool difference is the casting of Billy Dee Williams ( aka Lando Calrissian) as Gotham DA Harvey Dent. Also the songs in the film were provided by the always great Prince, one of the crazier musical choices for any summer blockbuster. But hey, it was the 80s and Prince was anything but crazy at the time, as a matter of fact if you thought Prince was crazy then you were probably crazy. PURPLE RAIN people, PURPLE RAIN.

2 AM. Not too epic for a weekend night, but alas anytime i'm up past 1 AM I must post.
Good day today. Nothing too crazy. Fairly productive for a Saturday.
Thought some thoughts, ate some food, told some jokes, watched some tube.
Struggling a bit with the Passover thing. I actually don't mind matzoh but it's hard to keep things kosher. I find it a little ironic that I make a big attempt to be kosher for passover when I don't give a rat's ass about being kosher the rest of the year. For a moment, I thought about getting some delicious Pizza tomorrow but realized that ain't an option.
Once tuesday comes around I am going to have quite the feast of fluffy, doughy, goodness. There will be pizza and sandwiches and pancakes and cookies.
Guess that could just be called back to normal. Either way, I will cherish it.

2:26 AM in the morning. Not exactly uwtl for a friday night but it is past 1 AM therefore I must type.
Forgot to mention in the morning edition but crazily enough this night has marked 6 months to the day when I was informed I was being "replaced" at my most recent steady job. It literally feels like a few weeks though i'm pretty sure i've done a thing or two in the past half year. Hopefully 6 months from now i won't be up blogging about the one year anniversary and will have landed a gig of some significance by then. On that night I returned home much later than this hour, after a night of free Vodka and Stella Artois thanks to the New York Film Festival. My first perk of my thankless job on the last night of said job. Despite the impending unemployment of that evening, the night was pretty epic with the aforementioned drinking activities proceeded by a screening of Lars Von Trier's ANTICHRIST, which probably gave the most literal and gruesome depiction of the term "Love Hurts." I don't know a better night for an open bar than that in which you lost your first ever real job.
In other news, I've survived day 5 of passover, though I am sweating matzoh as we speak. Just had a late night snack of Egg matzoh with cream cheese and avocado. That snack choice kinda makes me sound like a pregnant lady but I assure you that it is a delicious combo, and I am not with child. No, that only happens in mediocre Arnold Schwarzeneger comedies (not the matzoh, cream cheese and avocado but the male pregnancy)

Jeremy Is Up Way Too Late
Right now, as I have been many nights of late, I am up way too late.
Being uwtl when you plan to get uwte is a problem.
Hopefully I will not post on this blog every night, as a result of getting my shit together and actually going to bed at a decent hour.
Anytime I am up past 1 o'clock AM, I will write about it. Which seems counterproductive considering i'm already up way too late but whatever I don't care.
jeremyisupwaytooearly.tumblr.com now has a formidable foe.
