You know what?

For my entire life I have been spelling the word February wrong.  I only realized the correct spelling about one month ago.
I never realized the first R existed.  I always spelt the word, Febuary.  I actually pronounce the word Feb-you-ary... still do.
The weird thing is, that as I sit here right now... I'm not sure if I say the word correctly.
Is it pronounced Feb-roo-ary, or Feb-you-ary?  Is that first R silent?
I think it is insane, that I, a 26 year old man, do not know the correct pronunciation of the second month of our year.  I have experienced this month 25 times now in my life.  And I don't even know if I pronounce it right.
One would think that after doing something 25 times they would have it down pat.
Is it possible that I pronounce other words wrong, but nobody tells me.

"Yeah... I like Tom... But he can't say the word July properly."

Are people laughing behind my back about my incorrect pronunciation of the word February?  Ever since I found out about that extra R I have been making an overly concerted effort to pronounce it.  I have really been overdoing it.
Febrooooary.  I really extend that ROO now.  Before it was just a quick and simple, Febyouary.  Nothing to it.

When I was seven I realized that my parents laughed every time I picked up a Reader's Digest.  I always pronounced the word... Digg-ist.   That gave my parents a real chuckle.  They loved to laugh at their seven year old sons stupidity.  And they mocked me for a full year, chasing me around the house chanting Diggist until I wised up at the age of eight.  I hate my parents for that.  I hate them!  (No... I like them... I really like them)

I think my girlfriend is upset about this porno thing.  I really want to apologize to her here.  See I just have this feeling that I have to be real honest in this diary.  Problem is that I think it may have been a little rude to my current girlfriend by doing so.
Sue really is the most supportive and understanding girl I have ever been with in my life.  She gives me the space that I need to do this job, that right now is taking up a massive amount of time.  I have been so busy in the past couple of weeks that it's been hard to make time to see each other.  I think it may be starting to wear on her nerves.  Anyway babe, I'm sorry.

I just got back from editing.  It's actually 2:20 a.m. on the 6th of Feb...  I still think that this is a diary entry for the fifth however.  I hope nobody gets pissed off that I'm writing this entry for the 5th, on the morning of the 6th.  I don't want anybody to be pissed off about that.  I hate when people get pissed off about diary entries that are made on the morning 6th's, but are actually talking about 5th's.  I hate when people get pissed off about that kind of stuff.

I talked to a woman in Winnipeg today, she is a reporter from The Winnipeg Sun.  She wanted to know all about me and the show that I do.  I talked about myself for about an hour with her.  I am starting to get pretty good at talking about myself.  I find that this diary is helping me prepare for these crazy interviews.  It is talking-about-self preparation.  I am really starting to get in to talking about myself.  I guess you could say that I am becoming a self-centered person.  This talking about self thing is making me feel quite self centered.  In other words... I'm becoming a complete asshole.

Hey, don't get mad at me for being a complete asshole... okay?

I'm not 100 percent sure that this Mike Bullard thing is on Tuesday... It may be being moved to Wednesday.
I will find out for sure as soon as I can.  It's definitely next week.

(added Feb 6th -- Mike Bullard appearance now confirmed for Thursday...  Hope to see ya... Tom)

I'm basically just gonna go on and talk about our show, should be interesting though.  Interesting for me at least.  I think it's gonna be kind of neat.  Wow, that was neat.  I'll probably say that to myself after the show ends.  Wow!  That was neat!  That thing that just happened to me.... It sure was neat!

If you want tickets to the Mike Bullard show, you can call this number (416) 599-9654

I have to get some sleep now... I'm real tired.
See ya tomorrow.

Tom
