26
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Yeah, I never thought i'd see
the day where my kid he was clear

27
00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:25,240
he's he's clearly sick. Last night
he's coughing up a storm. There's a

28
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:30,240
cough going around, okay, because
I took Natalia to urgent care. Oh

29
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:34,319
you did with it? How long? Has she had it. She's had

30
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:38,520
this cough for like it's going on
like three weeks. It just keeps lingering

31
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:42,120
and it wakes her up in the
middle of the night and blah blah blah,

32
00:02:42,159 --> 00:02:44,240
and I'm like, all right,
let's just go to urgent care and

33
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,680
get some shit. Yeah. So
ever, they they said, there's a

34
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:53,759
there is a viral cough that's lingering
and it is going around, especially in

35
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:59,479
teens, she said. So they
gave her a butter al in Hailer and

36
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:05,319
haler and then they gave her like
cough syrup, dessorup something, but no

37
00:03:05,439 --> 00:03:08,439
antibiotic. Nope, it's a viral. I don't think it's a secondary infection.

38
00:03:10,439 --> 00:03:15,080
I don't. I don't that.
She didn't say no anyway. Yeah,

39
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:20,560
well, Xander's been coughing, but
he was also he was at a

40
00:03:20,599 --> 00:03:23,840
speech and debate. He got very
worn out because Friday, he went to

41
00:03:23,879 --> 00:03:27,199
school Friday, which I'll get to
this later, but we had a speech

42
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:34,080
and debate, yeah, competition straight
from school that went kind of late Kraka

43
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:37,599
dawn Saturday morning. We were on
the road. We went to the all

44
00:03:37,719 --> 00:03:40,960
day there. So he was so
tired. Yeah, you know, but

45
00:03:42,599 --> 00:03:46,120
yesterday like I would say, by
afternoon, he just basically slept on it

46
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:51,719
off all day. At night that
he was just constantly coughing. I'm like,

47
00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:53,680
I think you're sick. He goes, no, it's just I have

48
00:03:53,719 --> 00:03:57,759
some like flem in my throat.
I was like, no, you don't,

49
00:03:57,879 --> 00:04:00,840
I think you're sick, and he's
like, no, I think I'm

50
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:04,479
fine. So then this morning he's
coughing and has a sore throat an had

51
00:04:04,479 --> 00:04:09,719
a headache, no fever though.
I was like, I think you need

52
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,319
to stay home, and he was
like, oh no, I can't stay

53
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,560
home. Wow, because Mondays are
a big day at their school. They

54
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,439
have all their classes Monday, right, they do a block schedule, but

55
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,000
Monday they have all their classes.
He's like, oh no, I can't

56
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:29,480
miss Mondays are hard? This who
kids right now? What is happening when

57
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,160
kids want to go to school.
I know Natalia she went to she's been

58
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:38,879
worn down, like not, she's
working and she's just running herself ragged.

59
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:45,879
Yeah. She Saturday, her friend
that she grew up with had her debutante

60
00:04:45,879 --> 00:04:49,720
ball thing at her school or something, and her parents got Natalia ticket,

61
00:04:50,199 --> 00:04:54,879
so she was gone. She definitely
was going to that. And then it's

62
00:04:54,920 --> 00:05:00,040
her best friend's birthday and they were
having like a Manhattan Beach get together what

63
00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:04,319
ever, and spend the night at
her at her at her her grandparents house

64
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:09,439
down in Manhattan Beach on Saturday.
On Saturday, so she got up early,

65
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:13,519
drove down to Manhattan, hung out
with the girls down there, then

66
00:05:13,639 --> 00:05:17,319
drove to Bourbank Saturday night to go
to this thing. And remember the little

67
00:05:17,319 --> 00:05:20,240
girl that she used to be friends
with that's going to be like a CEO,

68
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:25,879
She's going to run a company someday. She her name was Cammy and

69
00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:30,160
she was so move though, yeah
she moved, but she came for this.

70
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,800
Their their friends. She flew in
for it. Yeah, her and

71
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,759
her mom, okay, And so
she got to see her. She was

72
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,839
so excited to see her. So
she was not missing that, but yet

73
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:45,000
I'm like, and then she goes
to Olivia. Yeah Olivia, okay,

74
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,079
yes, since they were like the
threesome. The threesome exactly. So Olivia

75
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:53,560
and Natya don't go to school together
either, But so anyway, this was

76
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,160
a big deal, you know.
So she and all of Olivia's family was

77
00:05:57,199 --> 00:06:00,720
there and so she's like, I'm
not missing that, and and then I

78
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:02,079
was like, Okay, go to
Manhattan Beach during the day and then come

79
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,680
back. And then she's like no, But then I'm driving back to Manhattan

80
00:06:05,759 --> 00:06:10,879
Beach to spend the night with her
friends, and I'm like that's a bit

81
00:06:10,959 --> 00:06:15,759
too much. And then Sunday she's
coming home early Sunday morning, getting up

82
00:06:15,759 --> 00:06:18,839
at like the krack of dawn to
come home because she was going to the

83
00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:24,360
Oscars. Her dad got her an
extra ticket and he didn't even go,

84
00:06:24,519 --> 00:06:27,279
I guess, and he gave her
the ticket. So it's like last year,

85
00:06:27,439 --> 00:06:30,759
just like last year, so he
got it at last minute. So

86
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,120
she got to go, which was
really nice, but she don't want to

87
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,879
go now he gave it to her. Yeah, oh he only got one

88
00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:41,519
ticket. He got an extra ticket. Well he got he got a ticket

89
00:06:41,639 --> 00:06:44,879
like to the as he wasn't supposed
to then, or at first he was.

90
00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:47,480
Then he was, I don't know
something, and then he did at

91
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,120
the last minute get a ticket and
he was like do you know, Taler,

92
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,439
do you want to go? And
she's like hell yes, so she

93
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,800
went. So then so on Sunday
she had to come back. So my

94
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,560
point is is that she had a
jam pack weekend, and I said,

95
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,560
why are you going all the way
back to Manhattan Beach. Why not just

96
00:07:03,639 --> 00:07:09,240
go to the debutante ball and then
come home and go to fucking bed in

97
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:15,120
your bed. Yeah? Why?
Because her she's with three friends, two

98
00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:18,480
of them so the one girl's birthday. The other two friends that was with

99
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:24,920
her the birthday girl are not very
close with the birthday girls as Natalia is,

100
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:30,720
so she feels like she's the glue
for this group of friends. So

101
00:07:30,759 --> 00:07:33,680
she feels like she has to go
back. So she went back, and

102
00:07:34,079 --> 00:07:38,279
she drove back, and then of
course she didn't get barely night a good

103
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,839
night's sleep because the girls were up
late and she went to bed early and

104
00:07:41,879 --> 00:07:45,000
they're waking her up and she couldn't
fall asleep, and of course, so

105
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,639
then you know, and then she's
like, all these bitches get to sleep

106
00:07:46,639 --> 00:07:49,240
in Sunday morning, She's like,
yeah, I know, I'm lucky to

107
00:07:49,279 --> 00:07:53,720
go to the oscars, but still
it's like, you know, I didn't

108
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,480
sleep good, and I go,
why I could have told you that,

109
00:07:55,639 --> 00:07:58,199
you know, you should have just
came home. But so she went to

110
00:07:58,319 --> 00:08:03,240
Olivia's debutante ball thing, and she
came they announced her name and she came

111
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:09,319
out to Here Comes the Sun by
the Beatles, and Natalia bursted into tears.

112
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,639
She goes, I couldn't control myself. I just burst it into She's

113
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:15,800
not a crier in Natalia. It's
kind of like elbe'. So this wasn't

114
00:08:15,839 --> 00:08:20,439
like a debutante theme, like she
literally had a debutante ball. I guess.

115
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,959
I don't know, because she does
go to an all girls school.

116
00:08:22,959 --> 00:08:28,560
I don't know that is weird.
Isn't a weird archaic That's what I think,

117
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,799
But like, you know, a
debutante is like you're presenting right your

118
00:08:31,919 --> 00:08:35,320
child. I think it's more modern. I think they modern it up.

119
00:08:35,399 --> 00:08:39,919
I don't know. I don't know, but I guess it's a tradition at

120
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:45,240
her school. I guess. Okay. So yeah, So she's sitting at

121
00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:50,000
the thing at the table with her
family and nobody else is crying but her,

122
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,240
and she's like I felt so stupid. I couldn't help, but she's

123
00:08:52,279 --> 00:08:56,360
like really, like that's my friend, Like I love her so much and

124
00:08:56,399 --> 00:09:00,240
we're gonna always be friends and blah
blah blah. And I'm like, I

125
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,960
know. Natalia was getting really sappy
and I was like this is really a

126
00:09:03,039 --> 00:09:07,480
nice sight of you. Natalia,
Is she drunk though, No, she

127
00:09:07,519 --> 00:09:13,399
had a drive. She was dry
now she was driving, and then I

128
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,200
think, I don't know, but
like then she went back and then she

129
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:20,639
went back to Manon Beach and then
she came back anyway. And then Jody

130
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,720
came over yesterday and we got her
Natalia dressed and she did her makeup,

131
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,399
her hair and went to the oscars. Would she wear? She got this

132
00:09:28,519 --> 00:09:33,279
dress like on sale, I don't
know, by the mall, by the

133
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,000
whatever, but it was gold.
It was really pretty. It was really

134
00:09:37,039 --> 00:09:41,200
pretty, and it was like stretchy
material, strapless, really pretty. And

135
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:45,840
she does her makeup like on fleek
or whatever. That's still a word.

136
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,080
But she does her makeup really well. So so who is she hanging out

137
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,600
with there? So she went by
herself. But then when she got there,

138
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:56,799
because she saw like Jimmy, this
year was nice and he got everybody

139
00:09:56,799 --> 00:10:01,840
in his family tickets like usually every
year. Melissa was like, we all

140
00:10:01,879 --> 00:10:03,879
feel like assholes because half the family
gets to go and the other you know,

141
00:10:03,919 --> 00:10:07,960
he's got a big family, he's
got cousins. Right, this year,

142
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,799
every he got like everybody a ticket. So the whole family. So

143
00:10:11,799 --> 00:10:15,120
as soon as she got there,
she ran into like one of them,

144
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,960
and then she sat with all of
them. And then she went to the

145
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:22,440
Governor's ball and she took a picture
with Chris and Elmsworth Endsworth, she took

146
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,320
a selfie with him. He was
really nice, and she hung out with

147
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,960
his family and James Baby, all
Dixon and everybody. You know, she

148
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,360
it's I think it was. You
know, it's good for her, Like,

149
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,799
you know, she loves Dixon.
She loves talking to him. She

150
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,639
talked to Jimmy for a long time. She said, Yeah, she took

151
00:10:37,639 --> 00:10:41,840
a selfie with Jimmy. Yeah,
she talked to him for a long time.

152
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,360
And then they all get on a
shuttle to go get the Uber,

153
00:10:48,879 --> 00:10:52,039
but instead I guess they all got
a shuttle just like a sprinter van to

154
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,000
take everybody home. So they were
like, we're kidnapping your daughter. She's

155
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,960
coming with us, she's gonna get
in the right she's getting a ride home,

156
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,480
but it's gonna be a while because
we have to go to like drop

157
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:05,000
everybody off. So Natalie was like
one of the last to get dropped off.

158
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:09,679
But they're her cousin, Jimmy's cousin
Anne and Josh, who are the

159
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,200
sweetest. They're all so sweet,
who are so sweet. They were like,

160
00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:18,399
we're gonna take her. She's gonna
go with us last because her because

161
00:11:18,519 --> 00:11:20,200
our house is kind of out of
the way. Everybody else lives by each

162
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,879
other. So anyway, so she
got home at like midnight, and it

163
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,799
was you know, it was I
stayed up waited for her, and she

164
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:30,519
had a great time. Yeah,
did she go to school today? Yes?

165
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,039
That was my point. So she
got I'm like, you're gonna I

166
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,360
could not believe, I said,
because I make her breakfast every morning.

167
00:11:37,639 --> 00:11:39,919
And I sent her a text.
I'm like, are you up? And

168
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:41,799
she's like yep. I'm like,
wow, I'm very proud of you.

169
00:11:41,879 --> 00:11:46,960
She was up and dressed and music
on and going to school. Yeah.

170
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,279
I mean, she's a kid.
She can handle it. I know.

171
00:11:50,519 --> 00:11:54,919
It's just funny for me. I'm
exhausted. I know. Well, I

172
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,000
feel like Elbie was like that a
lot senior year. I'm pretty sure she

173
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,600
was constantly instantly on the guy.
I mean she was working like Ilbi was

174
00:12:01,639 --> 00:12:05,840
working like twenty hours a week all
through her senior year. I was just

175
00:12:05,879 --> 00:12:09,559
like, is this crazy? Yeah? And her junior year. But yeah,

176
00:12:09,639 --> 00:12:15,279
constantly doing so many things and like
running herself completely ragged, right,

177
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,200
And I tell her, like,
you're gonna exhaust yourself. Thank god,

178
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,360
she doesn't have to go to work
tonight, but she does. Yeah,

179
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:24,600
she's been working a bunch of week
a bunch of nights. She works like

180
00:12:24,639 --> 00:12:26,840
three or four days a week.
She had to go in one day when

181
00:12:26,879 --> 00:12:31,240
it was her off day to cover
for the girl that got sick or I

182
00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:35,919
don't know. So she likes it. She's loving it. Yeah, And

183
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,559
but yeah, she's she's gonna run
herself ragged, but I guess it is.

184
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,360
It's senior year. Making herself a
little money. Though. Does she

185
00:12:43,399 --> 00:12:46,519
get tipped? Thank god? Yes, No, she doesn't get tips.

186
00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:50,279
Oh no, they don't have to
give give any they don't have to tip

187
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,879
out the hostess. No, but
somebody gave her a twenty dollars bill because

188
00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:58,440
she got them a table. Oh
yeah. She was like, She's like,

189
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,759
I didn't really do anything, but
we were packed and they didn't have

190
00:13:01,799 --> 00:13:03,799
reservations, and she's like, let
me see what I can do. And

191
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,360
then she went and talked to the
to the whatever and they made a table

192
00:13:07,399 --> 00:13:11,679
for them and the guy gave her
like a twenty buck here you go on

193
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,399
his way out. Thank you for
that. Yeah, And she's like wow,

194
00:13:13,639 --> 00:13:18,480
thanks, Like she was like,
yeah, it's nice that they're making

195
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,000
their own you know, they can
make their own money. Oh yeah,

196
00:13:20,039 --> 00:13:24,559
it's great. Yeah, I'll be
I mean I haven't had to. I

197
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,720
don't support anything outside of like I
mean, we still pay her insurance and

198
00:13:28,759 --> 00:13:33,840
pay her phone, right stuff like
that. Yeah, she doesn't pay rent

199
00:13:33,919 --> 00:13:39,080
or anything. But yeah, I
mean she all of her mostly eats meals

200
00:13:39,159 --> 00:13:43,080
out of the house. I mean, yeah, she eats food in the

201
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,159
house, don't get me wrong.
But my point is, most stuff she

202
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,519
just pays for herself. I don't
give her money anywhere for anything. That's

203
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:54,200
awesome. Yeah. Yeah. The
other thing too, is Natalia eats at

204
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,679
home all the time. Now she
used to like order this and that.

205
00:13:58,039 --> 00:14:01,080
She eats lunch. Oh shit,
I forgot to make her lunch. Fuck

206
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:05,159
well, she's got leftovers in the
fridge. But she comes home every day

207
00:14:05,159 --> 00:14:09,519
at lunch and eats lunch at home, and then of course I make her

208
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,440
lunch. But whatever, it's easy. You know, throw some chicken,

209
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,120
you know, and some salad together, and that's it, but she could

210
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,399
probably do that. She can do
that. Yeah, But and then she

211
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,840
eats breakfast every morning. She eats
breakfast, She eats eggs and avocado toast,

212
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,399
which I make for her, and
then she eats dinner at home.

213
00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:33,240
Yeah, so she changed. Yeah, she used to eat out all the

214
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:37,519
time and now she doesn't want to. She likes coming home at lunch.

215
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:43,240
Interesting, what about our boyfriend?
What about him? Aren't they are they

216
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:46,480
in school together? They are in
school. He comes home, he comes

217
00:14:46,519 --> 00:14:48,279
with her. Sometimes she comes with
her friends or him. She doesn't go

218
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,559
out to eat with him at night. They do you know what they do?

219
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:58,639
They do a monthly anniversary where it's
like it's our seventh month together,

220
00:14:58,759 --> 00:15:01,399
so we're going for sushi. You
know. They do that kind of shit

221
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,360
right during the week, No,
you know, No, Like he usually

222
00:15:05,399 --> 00:15:07,440
just comes over in the evenings and
hangs out with us, hangs out with

223
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,159
her, and then goes home.
She's in bed by nine thirty. She

224
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,960
has to. She's like, I'm
in bed at ninth lights out at nine

225
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:22,399
thirty. That's yeah, I'm wild. I know. She's she's changed,

226
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,919
Like and then she works out like
six to seven days a week, she's

227
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:28,320
got to get her work out in
and she tells me, so, yeah,

228
00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:33,720
she's she's I'm pretty proud of her. It's still good, very different

229
00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:37,720
than my kids. But she was
the same way. Like I think in

230
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:43,759
senior year something changed, like some
She's just motivated, you know. I

231
00:15:43,799 --> 00:15:50,120
mean Elbie gets no exercise whatsoever.
Uh, Xander is more of the like

232
00:15:50,279 --> 00:15:52,559
he gets out, he walks a
lot. He used to go to the

233
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:56,960
gym with John, but he doesn't. He told me he just doesn't like

234
00:15:58,039 --> 00:16:00,600
the gym. Yeah, but he
likes he has like a pull up bar

235
00:16:02,039 --> 00:16:04,360
and he's been doing his pull up
bar and he does push ups at home.

236
00:16:04,399 --> 00:16:07,879
And then he tries to like get
out and he goes like skateboarding every

237
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:14,840
evening and you know, yeah,
stuff like that. Sadie does nothing.

238
00:16:15,159 --> 00:16:22,279
They eat, I mean they eat
kind of junkie. Xander eats more healthy

239
00:16:22,559 --> 00:16:29,720
and like limits himself with sweets and
but you know they eat like five I

240
00:16:29,759 --> 00:16:33,879
mean the teenagers. Yeah, you
know, yeah, it's just still weird,

241
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,159
like just watching them change, you
know. And like Sonny goes for

242
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,559
a walk every night. He loves
to go for his walks. Yeah,

243
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:49,639
every night after dinner and listening to
his corn. That's right, walking around

244
00:16:49,679 --> 00:16:55,360
the neighborhood listening to porn. So
that he's doing. I tell you that.

245
00:16:55,559 --> 00:16:59,679
The other night, I woke up
at like I think this was last

246
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,600
month. I woke up at like
four thirty four forty five in the morning.

247
00:17:03,919 --> 00:17:07,039
It was pitch black outside, and
I took Phil to go to the

248
00:17:07,039 --> 00:17:11,759
bathroom, and as I was walking
into the living room, Sonny just comes

249
00:17:11,759 --> 00:17:15,640
walking down the hall dressed with his
earbuds on him, like, good morning,

250
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,839
what do you what are you?
Where are you going? He goes,

251
00:17:18,839 --> 00:17:23,160
I'm going on a walk. Excuse
me, I go now, and

252
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,480
he goes, yeah, I couldn't
sleep at all to last He's got really

253
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:32,039
bad insomnia, and I'm taking him
to a doctor in like two weeks.

254
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:37,839
Oh, actually next week. I'm
like okay. So he yeah, he

255
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:41,039
but but because he took a nap
earlier in the day, he took a

256
00:17:41,039 --> 00:17:45,279
lot and he usually does it,
so he fell asleep. He woke I

257
00:17:45,319 --> 00:17:48,000
woke him up for dinner. It
was like six thirty and he goes like

258
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,279
that nap was like three hours and
I was like oh, and he goes,

259
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,400
yeah, so I didn't sleep.
So he's like if I go for

260
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,519
a walk right now, tire myself
out, and I'm like, it's pitch

261
00:17:56,559 --> 00:18:00,279
black out, and he goes,
so what, I go for a walk

262
00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:03,079
at night and it's pitch black and
there's not a lot of lights in our

263
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,079
neighborhood either, which is just weird. At three o'clock in the morning.

264
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,279
No, this was like five five
in the morning. Oh okay, it

265
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,640
was like four or forty five.
And yeah, I ran into him at

266
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,839
like five in the morning. But
then was he going to go back to

267
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:21,599
sleep after his walk? Yes,
and like sleep till what eight or he

268
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,680
doesn't have first period. He doesn't
have first period, so he can see.

269
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,920
Yeah, so he came back like
an hour later, and then he

270
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:33,720
went to sleep like six forty five
seven, and then got up at like

271
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:37,480
nine and then went to bed at
a good time that night. And now

272
00:18:37,519 --> 00:18:41,839
he's back on track. Okay,
he will have once in a while like

273
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:44,880
nights, but he did again take
a nap. But he does have these

274
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,440
nights where I mean Adam was like
that. Adam's like that, like just

275
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,839
up in the middle of the night, can't sleep. I guess it's hereditary.

276
00:18:55,559 --> 00:18:59,480
Yeah, maybe, so I think
it is John used to be like

277
00:18:59,559 --> 00:19:06,519
that, but he's normal now.
Yeah, But I think and I think

278
00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:11,599
with John, I was the one
I got up every morning and did everything,

279
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,920
and I think that he would sleep
in every morning, so it's harder

280
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:17,319
for him to get to sleep at
night. But now he gets up when

281
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:22,400
I get up because I'm not sure
why. But the way it works is

282
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,319
that I take the dog out in
the morning and he takes the kids.

283
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,480
He drives the kids to school.
Oh okay, and then it's good.

284
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:33,680
Yeah, I'll pick them up in
the afternoon. But yeah, so he

285
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,119
goes to bed at night at a
decent time. Yeah. We go to

286
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,599
bed at like midnight, yeah,
I mean, and then get up at

287
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:48,200
seven five, Yeah, which is
fine that the kids also go to bed

288
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,119
at like midnight. And I've always
thought the kids need, you know,

289
00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,839
like ten hours of sleep or something, but my kids do not. They

290
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,119
are wide awake at midnight. A
lot of times. I'm just like,

291
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,400
I can't outlast them. I know, I know, I'm in bed usually

292
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,880
by eleven, but sometimes I'm not
asleep till twelve. But then I'll put

293
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:12,480
on a podcast and then I'm like
out darted bear, How do you do

294
00:20:12,519 --> 00:20:18,720
you fall asleep. I was listening
to a court thing in my earbuds,

295
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,319
and I went to sleep. And
then I wake up and I'm like,

296
00:20:22,319 --> 00:20:26,079
how do people do this? I
can't find my earbuds now they're gone.

297
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,079
They're all like tangled up in my
sheets. I then call one of them

298
00:20:30,079 --> 00:20:33,599
to find I don't listen on my
earbuds. I just put the podcast on

299
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,240
and I set it to go off. I said it. I set a

300
00:20:37,279 --> 00:20:41,440
timer. The timers right on the
podcast app. I see that. Yeah,

301
00:20:41,559 --> 00:20:44,640
it just has a little moon,
and you just hit that and I'll

302
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:45,480
say when do you want it to
go off? And I'll say after the

303
00:20:45,559 --> 00:20:49,599
end of the episode. Oh,
And then I just we put it kind

304
00:20:49,599 --> 00:20:52,599
of we put the one of our
phones like between us, and then we

305
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,519
so you both listen. Yeah,
we both listen. Okay, Yeah,

306
00:20:57,759 --> 00:21:02,079
well that's a good idea. Yeah. Should we talk about Quints. Let's

307
00:21:02,079 --> 00:21:06,839
talk about Quints. I love I'm
wearing Quint's pants. Oh, those are

308
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,440
so key. I love them.
Those are the ones that I have Right

309
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:17,519
now, we're both wearing Quints.
Which pants those are? Oh? I

310
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:22,519
forget them. I think they're called
the blue ones. I love them.

311
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,680
I bought them for sunny and they
were too short, so I took them,

312
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:27,720
so now I wear them. I've
been raving about them for a long

313
00:21:27,759 --> 00:21:32,119
long time and was I wrong?
Oh, you're right, You're so right.

314
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,720
And the pockets are deep and they're
so soft. And I also have

315
00:21:34,799 --> 00:21:40,160

330
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,079
tournament. I say tournament, you
guys say tournament. That just sounds

331
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:56,559
so wrong. It sounds like I'm
being Chicago, like, yeah, turnament.

332
00:22:56,599 --> 00:23:00,720
I went to the tournament anyway,
went to the turnament. I think

333
00:23:00,799 --> 00:23:06,039
that you say it the proper way. Tournament. No, it is tournament.

334
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:11,839
What do you think tournament? Tournament? Yeah, it seems like it

335
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,240
should be tournament, though. I
don't want to get into a whole argument

336
00:23:15,319 --> 00:23:18,680
with our listeners, you know,
and get a bunch of hate mail,

337
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,680
because you guys are haters. You
guys drink the hater aide and are so

338
00:23:22,799 --> 00:23:26,519
mad at me right now. So
I'm gonna please you guys. Tournament,

339
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:33,359
God, there's better things to cancel
us over. Trust me. Tournament anyway,

340
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,359
tournament, Uh, tournament. There
was a speech in another Speech and

341
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,759
debate, tournament. It's the state
qualifiers. Wow. Yeah, and Xander

342
00:23:41,559 --> 00:23:48,160
was in it along with his team
and the people's on his team. I

343
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,559
don't know. Is it small?
Say they were like fifteen, that's a

344
00:23:52,599 --> 00:23:56,480
big team. Yeah, I mean
there's there are more than that, but

345
00:23:56,559 --> 00:24:00,720
I don't know where the I don't
know. Okay, yeah, so they

346
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:06,400
like them and all the grades.
Okay, yeah, so but it's a

347
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,680
small school, right, so okay, but for such a small school,

348
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,599
they won. They won quite a
few things. That's awesome. Yeah,

349
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:19,880
yeah, Xander did not win.
Spoiler alert. Okay, but you had

350
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:26,599
so much fun. Yeah yeah,
so but I I'm gonna I get to

351
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,119
complain about this one. Oh now, why so? I was so excited.

352
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,559
I was so excited. I when
I got the email from the teacher

353
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,400
asking for judges, I was like
the first one. I was like,

354
00:24:38,519 --> 00:24:41,880
I'm in, I'm in. And
she was like, listen, I don't

355
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,640
want to have to have people have
to work both days, so we really

356
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:45,680
need people to step up. I
was like, no, you don't,

357
00:24:45,799 --> 00:24:49,680
I'll work both days. I got
you. I'm your girl on Friday and

358
00:24:49,759 --> 00:24:55,279
Saturday, right, And she was
you know, so their coach. I

359
00:24:55,319 --> 00:25:00,240
love her so much. She's like, she's so nice. Yeah, she's

360
00:25:00,319 --> 00:25:06,559
also the uh English, the honors
English teacher. Yeah, the kids love

361
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:11,039
her. She's just funny. She's
got like a nose ring and she's like

362
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,640
she's young and you know, she's
just cool. But she also was she

363
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,440
competed in speech and debate when she
was young, and she's really good and

364
00:25:21,759 --> 00:25:25,400
so had equality to have. I
think it's a good skill. Yeah,

365
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:30,480
really good skills to have learned that
skill. I meann't have any speech and

366
00:25:30,519 --> 00:25:33,559
debate at my school. Did they
have it at year school? I don't

367
00:25:33,599 --> 00:25:36,680
remember, I don't. I don't
think so. I mean I went to

368
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:41,960
that small magnet right right, hippy
dippy school. But okay, okay,

369
00:25:41,079 --> 00:25:45,599
okay, yeah, I don't know, but it's so good for these kids,

370
00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:51,200
it is. It's a great se
great skill. Yeah. So anyway,

371
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,680
I agreed to do it. Went
there on Friday, so there was

372
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:59,839
a one round, two rounds to
be judged on Friday, and I did

373
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,359
get to judge around I'm trying to
think of how many there were. Well

374
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:06,640
I only got to judge one.
But I was like, that's okay,

375
00:26:07,519 --> 00:26:11,079
you know, but you got all
day tomorrow, Yes exactly. I'm like

376
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,880
tomorrow I was gonna be crazy,
right. A couple of the people though,

377
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,720
on Friday night. The other judges
had like back to back rounds and

378
00:26:18,759 --> 00:26:22,240
were already like sweating it a little
bit, like so here's how it goes,

379
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:27,720
and you know me, I get
my brain, I'm like fucked up.

380
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:36,880
I'm not trying to ever claim that
I'm super like mentally healthy. I'm

381
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,400
just saying I'm just being I'm just
being honest with everybody about my own things

382
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:45,799
that make me. I'm a planner, and not in a good way,

383
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,319
not in the way of like,
oh I like to be organized and plan

384
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,480
things out, more like I like
to constantly my brain is constantly going like

385
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:57,720
what could go wrong? And it's
not even catastrophizing. It's more like,

386
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:00,960
oh no, but if I can't
figure out where the parking lot is,

387
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,559
you know, because anytime I have
to follow, you know how we both

388
00:27:04,559 --> 00:27:10,279
are like this about like a lot
of instructions. I can't take so much

389
00:27:10,279 --> 00:27:15,079
information in my BRAIND right, maybe
this is an ADHD thing. But once

390
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,279
there's a second page of instructions for
anything I lost the first, Yeah,

391
00:27:19,319 --> 00:27:22,880
I know, me too, And
then I have to print it out and

392
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,240
I'm like, oh, what if
I am out of service and I'm not

393
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,680
gonna be able to see where to
go, and you know, and how

394
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,799
long is it going to take me
to get there? And it's a Friday

395
00:27:30,839 --> 00:27:34,759
and Friday traffic and I need to
leave right after school. But then Xander

396
00:27:34,799 --> 00:27:38,920
has to change first, so I'm
like okay, then one of the roads

397
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:44,880
is closed. Suffice it to say, I was late. I had to

398
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:48,599
find this parking lot. So I'm
already like anxious. Yeah right, And

399
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,519
it's not like I'm I'm not totally
nuts. It's like I'm anxious, but

400
00:27:53,599 --> 00:27:57,440
I'm like it's fine. I tell
myself like whatever, hey, I got

401
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:03,319
here. They're not going to kick
me out of it. And of course

402
00:28:03,519 --> 00:28:06,799
a lot of people other people were
late. You know, it's Friday traffic

403
00:28:06,839 --> 00:28:11,200
in Los Angeles. Yeah. So
but then you get all these judging instructions,

404
00:28:11,599 --> 00:28:15,960
so it's like every beat of this
is a lot of instructions. Okay,

405
00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:22,400
right, so you're constantly going like
okay, I'm gonna forget this,

406
00:28:22,799 --> 00:28:26,000
Like how much of this do I
really need to talk me? Do it?

407
00:28:26,079 --> 00:28:27,480
Like? So, yeah, I
did it before. I did it

408
00:28:27,519 --> 00:28:32,359
before, so I wasn't that nervous
about that. But you could get a

409
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:37,480
different thing to judge, and they
act like there's new rules like for instance,

410
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:44,920
for instance, in this one,
you're supposed to give the kids a

411
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:48,079
rating. Remember I described this to
you last time, between seventy and one

412
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,720
hundred, but nobody really tells you
what to exactly base your rating on.

413
00:28:52,119 --> 00:28:55,559
So some people are giving kids like
a hundred, like I gave kids a

414
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,839
hundred, But other people are like, well a ninety is really generous,

415
00:29:00,279 --> 00:29:03,160
Like you don't know. Everybody treats
it like we're like we're judging the Olympics,

416
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,079
you know, right, and you're
like, well, I got to

417
00:29:06,079 --> 00:29:10,119
take off a tenth of a point
for posture. Hey, you don't know

418
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:15,319
who's doing what or And also it's
just super subjective, right, like what

419
00:29:15,039 --> 00:29:18,559
you think is good and what other
people think is good. But anyway,

420
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:23,240
and it's mostly speech, right,
no debate, right, there's no debate.

421
00:29:23,359 --> 00:29:29,440
No. So in this one though, So in the last one that

422
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,720
I judged, you give them you
rank them, Like let's say you have

423
00:29:32,759 --> 00:29:37,640
seven kids competing in year round.
You rank them one through four, and

424
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:41,119
then the rest of them are all
tied for fourth place. So really what

425
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:45,279
you care about is one through three. Well, in this one, because

426
00:29:45,279 --> 00:29:49,279
it's a state qualifier for whatever reason, there were no speaker points involved,

427
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:55,000
but our in when they're giving you
the instructions, there's a lot of talk

428
00:29:55,039 --> 00:29:57,559
about the speaker points and how many
speaker points to give. Then when we

429
00:29:57,599 --> 00:30:00,680
looked at our ballot, there's no
no place for speaker points. So then

430
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:04,119
you have to bring your computer over
and show it to them and go,

431
00:30:04,599 --> 00:30:07,880
hey, I don't know there's no
speaker points, and they're like, oh,

432
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,599
yeah, we're not doing speaker points. Okay, so just do your

433
00:30:11,079 --> 00:30:17,079
ranking. Okay. Also, this
is gonna this is gonna seem like too

434
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:21,880
much information. But so my computer
at home, the battery doesn't work.

435
00:30:22,079 --> 00:30:26,960
Like, if you unplug my computer, you're gonna have no battery in fifteen

436
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,920
minutes. Right, Well, you
have to have some kind of a laptop.

437
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:37,880
So I borrowed Xander's computer. Well, Xander never failed to mention that

438
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:42,359
the space bar is really sticky,
so you can't tight. I don't know

439
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,559
what he freaking uses it for.
I mean, I think I have to

440
00:30:45,599 --> 00:30:48,160
get this fixed, right, I
don't really know how to get it fixed,

441
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,440
because I think he just deals with
it. But you cannot. You

442
00:30:52,519 --> 00:30:56,759
have to you can't use your thumb. You can't tight normally you have to

443
00:30:56,799 --> 00:31:00,039
like specifically hit the space bar and
if you hit it to and he gives

444
00:31:00,039 --> 00:31:06,759
you a period. Oh god,
it's so ridiculous. Also, I can't

445
00:31:06,799 --> 00:31:08,720
use a track pad, I'm too
young. Can I have to use a

446
00:31:08,759 --> 00:31:14,480
mouse? So now I'm like,
well, I gotta connect my wireless mouse,

447
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:18,440
you know, to his computer.
Well, so Friday I go and

448
00:31:18,519 --> 00:31:22,640
Xander's like, mom, I need
you to bring my clothes, don't forget

449
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,319
the computer. I'm like, of
course, I'm not going to forget.

450
00:31:25,359 --> 00:31:27,599
I'm anxious. I've got a list
of everything I need. Well, I

451
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:33,160
get to the school and I forgot
the mouse. So now I'm like,

452
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,839
can't you plug in your laptop though, and use it like that? Like

453
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,279
plug it in? And just because
if you if there's a lot of people

454
00:31:40,319 --> 00:31:42,920
there, and there are probably like
a couple of outlets in the whole place,

455
00:31:44,079 --> 00:31:48,519
So the main place where you're sitting
around tables and there's no outlet there,

456
00:31:48,559 --> 00:31:51,440
I'd have to go off by myself
and find an outlet. It's like,

457
00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:53,920
would be a pain. It was
fine to use Xander's computer, battery

458
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,359
lasted all day. The problem was
I had to use a track pad and

459
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,279
a sticky space par key, which
I didn't know I was going to be

460
00:32:00,359 --> 00:32:07,200
dealing with. Anyway, I get
one round. I judged the round,

461
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,279
it was totally funk, and I
don't get the next round. Then I'm

462
00:32:10,279 --> 00:32:14,640
sitting around this Friday night. This
is Friday night, okay, yeah,

463
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:19,119
but I'm like, oh, Saturday, They're going to exhaust me all the

464
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,519
judging I'm going to be doing.
Yeah, no, now what? So

465
00:32:22,559 --> 00:32:27,000
I get there, so I'm with
I have a friend of mine meets me

466
00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:30,440
there who I really like, So
that part was fun. And we were

467
00:32:30,559 --> 00:32:34,920
meeting another friend whose kid goes to
the school, who was going to be

468
00:32:35,039 --> 00:32:37,920
judging. So I'm like, well, at the very least, I'm going

469
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,400
to have fun with some mother mom
your friend. Yeah. So we get

470
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:45,480
there. They made this big deal
about getting there by eight o'clock, and

471
00:32:45,559 --> 00:32:49,039
I asked, well, can we
get there a little late since we heard

472
00:32:49,079 --> 00:32:52,759
the judging instructions already. He's like, you need to be in this room

473
00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:54,920
by eight thirty in the morning,
Saturday, the morning, Saturday morning.

474
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:59,279
So I was like, okay,
So now I'm anxious about it. So

475
00:32:59,319 --> 00:33:01,599
I make sure, as you're gonna
hear in my Patreon story, I make

476
00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:06,079
sure that the girl that's I'm driving
is dropped off at our house at seven

477
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,079
thirty because it's a little bit far. I've got to pick up another girl.

478
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:14,240
Then I got a Then I'm like
gonna be taking kind of a long

479
00:33:14,279 --> 00:33:16,920
way anyway, long story short,
I was. I was there by like

480
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:21,519
ten after eight, OK, but
you're supposed to be there at eight.

481
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,119
My deadline. My thing was like, Okay, yeah, you don't have

482
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,319
to be here right at eight,
but if you're no later than eight,

483
00:33:28,319 --> 00:33:30,440
pty, Well I there at like
ten after a quarter after eight? No

484
00:33:30,519 --> 00:33:37,200
one there. Don't I know what
happens? Like, don't you? This

485
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,079
is full on early bird. This
happens. It seems like it happens with

486
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,720
these kinds of events, like with
track and field and stuff. It's like,

487
00:33:44,839 --> 00:33:46,920
you got to be there at seven
fifteen am on the dot, blah

488
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:50,799
blah blah. We get there and
like nobody's there. Yeah, where is

489
00:33:50,839 --> 00:33:53,279
everybody? Right? And why are
we the only rule followers? I'm not

490
00:33:53,359 --> 00:33:58,039
even a rule follower, Like that's
what's so ridiculous. And it's like I'm

491
00:33:58,079 --> 00:34:00,359
the last person who's really trying to
follow rule. I was just anxious,

492
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:04,200
right and got there on wanted to
make sure I was there on time,

493
00:34:04,359 --> 00:34:07,759
so got there a little early.
But yeah, not even early though.

494
00:34:07,159 --> 00:34:09,760
It was supposed to be there at
eight, right, So like where it

495
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:14,920
is now, it's like eight thirty. People are like wandering in. People

496
00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:21,559
were wandering until fucking nine o'clock.
Oh god, my then nine o'clock.

497
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:25,519
So so ballots go out, don't
get one and neither does neither does my

498
00:34:25,559 --> 00:34:29,800
friend though, so I'm not feeling
that bad. Okay, then the next

499
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:35,440
ballots go out. Nothing. Basically
I didn't get anything all day. I'm

500
00:34:35,559 --> 00:34:38,400
sitting in a room. But every
time they're like, okay, they're starting

501
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,960
around. These rounds go an hour
and a half every time, though,

502
00:34:43,079 --> 00:34:46,519
I'm like scared to leave because a
where am I going? Right? Like

503
00:34:46,599 --> 00:34:51,519
I could go like walk around.
We were in Burbank, so I could

504
00:34:51,559 --> 00:34:54,960
go to like the Burbank mall,
but like and then I'm gonna have to

505
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:59,159
walk back to my school, and
you know, so I was like I

506
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:00,800
kept thinking, like, well,
they're about to give me something to do.

507
00:35:01,679 --> 00:35:06,159
All day long, I had nothing
to do except for I ate too

508
00:35:06,199 --> 00:35:09,199
much because they were like munchies,
you know, so I ate food and

509
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:15,400
then I sat around and then this
is where this is where my personality is,

510
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:20,000
Like, this is where I run
into issues. This is why I

511
00:35:20,039 --> 00:35:23,079
never was able to keep jobs for
too long, you know, Because then

512
00:35:23,119 --> 00:35:25,639
I'm starting to take it a little
bit personally, like I'm like, why,

513
00:35:25,639 --> 00:35:28,880
don't know what's going on? Like
I was gonna say, like,

514
00:35:29,599 --> 00:35:32,079
doesn't it make you feel there's this
such a little twinge of jealousy when they

515
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,280
get the ballots go out and you
don't have one. I was feeling bad

516
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,880
for you. Yes, yes,
And also I'm starting to get annoyed because

517
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:45,639
other people are getting overworked. So
like the coach's sister had to come because

518
00:35:45,639 --> 00:35:50,719
we were short a judge, and
she got every ballot and she was like,

519
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,800
I don't know what's going on.
I just keep getting ballot. I'm

520
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:57,880
having to judge every round like I
can't get a break. And I said,

521
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,760
well I'll do I would be happily
do your round. I wish I

522
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:06,480
was getting every round. I would
have been thrilled. I was. I'm

523
00:36:06,519 --> 00:36:08,599
like, this is what I'm here
for. Yes, this is where I've

524
00:36:08,599 --> 00:36:15,599
come alive. I was meant to
do this shit, this is I would

525
00:36:15,599 --> 00:36:21,280
do this for a Do you have
an opening for speeching to bage coaches because

526
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,239
put me in. I want to
do it. How do I apply?

527
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:28,719
Like, I got a new this
is my new goal in life is to

528
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,199
be a speech to debag coach.
You know, I'm like overly into it.

529
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,639
Yes, these assholes are like,
oh, I'm too overworked. I

530
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,639
kind of how do I you know, have to blow to get a break

531
00:36:37,679 --> 00:36:45,039
around here? So I'm just getting
annoyed. So now the people, Okay,

532
00:36:45,119 --> 00:36:49,559
So there's sort of like administrators.
One of them is a speeching debach

533
00:36:49,679 --> 00:36:52,400
coach for like a very big school, and I befriended her at the last

534
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:57,800
one. So first I start with
like a little like amn, like hey,

535
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,760
like how come I haven't gotten any
ballots? Like I could really use

536
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,320
a ballot And she's like, oh
yeah, it's like totally random. And

537
00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:10,079
so it is. There's something called
the tab room. Okay. The tab

538
00:37:10,159 --> 00:37:15,760
room is where they is the app
that they use to do all of the

539
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:20,480
ballots. That's who they send all
the ballots out and they organize everything and

540
00:37:20,519 --> 00:37:23,440
then they tally up people's scores.
Is this an actual room or is this

541
00:37:23,519 --> 00:37:27,840
an app? Well, it's a
room where tab room is. It's an

542
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,280
actual room. But it's it's like
a it's an app. It's like a

543
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:35,119
website, Like you sign up on
tab room and that's how you get your

544
00:37:35,119 --> 00:37:39,599
ballots, and then that's how you
write your comments directly into this website basically.

545
00:37:40,119 --> 00:37:45,559
And then the people who run tab
room, it's they're sitting in another

546
00:37:45,679 --> 00:37:50,360
room. Okay, tabulating. Wow, this is really like yes, oh

547
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:53,920
it's it's like crazy, it's serious
business. Yeah, it's serious. So

548
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:59,400
she's like, oh that the tab
room does everything. But so I'm like,

549
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,199
oh, she's you'll get one.
Then she starts telling me like,

550
00:38:02,639 --> 00:38:07,320
don't worry if you don't get them
early in the day. They're trying to

551
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,679
So this is like, this is
gonna be in the weeds. But they

552
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:15,320
they call it keeping you clean because
if you haven't, if you've judged some

553
00:38:15,599 --> 00:38:20,400
kids, then you can't judge them
in later rounds. You've already judge them.

554
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,960
So they're like, oh, she's
they're probably saving you for the important

555
00:38:23,039 --> 00:38:30,480
rounds. Oh. I'm like,
oh, okay, well of course they

556
00:38:30,519 --> 00:38:34,519
are. Now that makes sense,
right, They probably got a load of

557
00:38:34,559 --> 00:38:37,119
my judging abilities from the last one. And they're like, this girl knows

558
00:38:37,119 --> 00:38:43,480
how to judge. Gotta save her
right, right. Also, if any

559
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,039
of these schools are looking for a
coach, we got this, we got

560
00:38:45,039 --> 00:38:49,320
this judge. You did like a
fabulous job, right, So I'm like

561
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,440
okay, so same with my friends. She hasn't judged any rounds either.

562
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:58,480
So then now it's after lunch and
we're in the semi finals. We're in.

563
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:04,079
We're now into the rounds where like
these me clean, these clean,

564
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,199
amazing judges. Yes, no,
I get nothing. So now I'm getting

565
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:13,320
mad and now I'm being there's a
difference between the squeaky wheel and like the

566
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,239
wheel that's falling off the heart that
people should not have to be paying attention

567
00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:22,719
touse, Like I'm just a judge, and now I'm just like I just

568
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:24,880
don't understand what's going on, and
I can't help myself. Like I'm like,

569
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:30,199
Stephanie, do not say anything.
Nobody cares about you. It is

570
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:35,679
like very crazy that you're obsessed with
why you haven't gotten ballots. But I'm

571
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,280
like, hey, you are wasting
a Saturday. Yes, yes, And

572
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,719
I'm sure that some of these people
don't, like don't they need to go

573
00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:45,360
somewhere? It's in It is like
doesn't somebody need to leave after lunch,

574
00:39:45,559 --> 00:39:49,079
one of the judges from our school
was like, had injured her back and

575
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,280
was like, I came, but
I really would rather not be here.

576
00:39:52,559 --> 00:39:57,119
They kept giving her ballots and she
was like, dude. Finally she went

577
00:39:57,159 --> 00:39:59,960
in and told them, like,
is if there's any way that I could

578
00:40:00,079 --> 00:40:05,400
go home? We got other judges
that are like not doing anything my school,

579
00:40:05,519 --> 00:40:07,639
right, Yeah, she went and
told them, and they told her

580
00:40:07,679 --> 00:40:10,039
she could go. Still didn't give
me a ballot. Oh my god.

581
00:40:10,119 --> 00:40:14,719
Now I'm just getting mad. It's
getting rigged or something. Yes, And

582
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:19,360
now I'm of course starting to take
it personally. Now I'm like, did

583
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:23,480
I do something wrong? So I
do say, hey, like I I

584
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:28,840
would really like to get a ballot. And now this woman from the big

585
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,039
the coach who has the big school, who's not in charge, is feeling

586
00:40:32,079 --> 00:40:37,880
bad for me, but also probably
annoyed by how much I'm complaining. Now

587
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,639
I've turned into a full on complainer, and I'm just like, I just

588
00:40:39,679 --> 00:40:44,760
don't understand. I just don't know
why I'm not getting any ballots. Like,

589
00:40:45,159 --> 00:40:47,320
and then of course when I every
time there's a new round and I

590
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:59,079
don't get one, I'm like and
I'm trying not to Lynette. I'm like

591
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:02,440
in my mind, like this is
why you got fired from Burger King when

592
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:07,920
you were sixteen, and nothing has
changed, like Stephanie sitting there and breaking

593
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:13,320
a pencil every time they call other
people. Let's take a quick break and

594
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,280
I'll tell what happens. Okay,
Hey, let's talk about Honey Love.

595
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:23,239
Guys. I absolutely love my It's
it's like a brief. Yes. It

596
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:30,400
normally shapewear. Honey Love is shapewear
ras that keep the side boob together.

597
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:35,440
Yeah, I'm gonna say I discovered
them before they were a sponsor on our

598
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:40,320
show. I bought a bra from
them online and it smooths out the back,

599
00:41:40,519 --> 00:41:45,000
the sides and it doesn't have underwires, so I love it. It's

600
00:41:45,039 --> 00:41:51,119
really comfortable and it's pretty. Yes, I have the Superpower short that is

601
00:41:51,159 --> 00:41:55,039
the that's like one of their best
sellers. And normally I can't stand the

602
00:41:55,079 --> 00:42:00,119
fact that it can feel so tight
and constricted and you just want to I

603
00:42:00,159 --> 00:42:04,360
talked you about the time I cut
one off with a scissors to old brand.

604
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,639
You do not feel like that with
Honeylob. Well, that's why I

605
00:42:07,679 --> 00:42:09,840
found them. Yeah, and I
love that. Yes, it also had.

606
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:15,599
It's also a booty lifter, so
like the bottom gets a very amazing

607
00:42:15,679 --> 00:42:21,199
shape. And you know, I
love the fact that they have openings in

608
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:25,199
the panty area for super easy bathroom
breaks. Yeah, it's great. I

609
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:30,559
really love it. It's super comfortable. So treat yourself to the best bras

616
00:43:01,679 --> 00:43:06,679
and they love it. They're on
zoom. It's very The thing about Better

617
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:10,280
Help is great. It's therapy that
you can get. You can go online

618
00:43:10,679 --> 00:43:14,840
and you fill out a brief questionnaire
and then you get matched with a licensed

619
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,920
therapist and you can switch therapists anytime
for no additional charge. The thing that

620
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:22,440
it's great with kids is you don't
have to take them and drive them and

621
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:27,559
park and it's all right there in
their bedroom. It's super easy because everybody

622
00:43:27,639 --> 00:43:32,440
could use therapy and zoom therapy is
really just so convenient because it makes it

623
00:43:32,519 --> 00:43:37,880
more accessible because we're all busy,
you know. And I would say that

624
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:44,559
before COVID, the idea of doing
things online and on zoom was not as

625
00:43:44,559 --> 00:43:49,199
attractive. But now that we've all
experienced being home and how convenient it is,

626
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,559
I think it's really nice. I
think it's really nice and sometimes it

627
00:43:52,559 --> 00:43:57,719
helps you be more open. So

sitting around trying not to be as as

631
00:44:16,599 --> 00:44:22,480
loudly like, but I can't help
myself. I'm just like, I just

632
00:44:22,519 --> 00:44:28,480
don't understand why I haven't gotten one. So finally, because I'm being so

633
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:35,159
pushy, she goes the So the
coach's sister gets yet another one. She's

634
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,519
like another, She's she's done like
six or seven rounds at this point,

635
00:44:38,599 --> 00:44:44,239
I've met none. All of a
sudden, she's like, we gave you

636
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,280
a ballot, but they'd already sent
out the ballots for this round. This

637
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,480
is like late in the game,
so I wasn't gonna get one, but

638
00:44:51,519 --> 00:44:53,639
then because I was being kind of
pushy about it, I got one and

639
00:44:53,679 --> 00:44:58,400
my friend got one and we got
to do the same one. And the

640
00:44:58,639 --> 00:45:02,800
round is called impromptu. And it's
where this is really hard. So kudos

641
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:07,880
to these kids. They have to
they get a topic. You give them

642
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:12,280
one word. Okay, they get
a choice of three words and they could

643
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:17,840
be like like meditation, board games, optimism. So they pick one,

644
00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:23,559
right, they sit down, they
get two minutes to come up with a

645
00:45:23,599 --> 00:45:28,719
speech. They get two minutes to
come up with something, and then they

646
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,519
have to speak for five minutes.
Wow, it's impressive on the topic.

647
00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:37,920
Yeah, And so we were and
you have to time them and you have

648
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:40,880
to so in this one, because
it's the semi finals, there's three judges,

649
00:45:42,119 --> 00:45:45,800
right, so it was me and
my friend and then another judge and

650
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,119
you don't get to confer with each
other. And anyway, so we watch

651
00:45:49,199 --> 00:45:52,920
these kids. We got like seven
kids. They were all adorable, so

652
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:58,119
good, and that's where we were
like, God, what a skill this

653
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:01,840
is. And they have to be
really presentational, like you can't just be

654
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:07,880
like, so okay board games.
Like when I was a kid, I

655
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,920
really liked board games, but now
I don't like them as much, but

656
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,239
I still like scrabble. Like,
you can't do that. It has to

657
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:20,440
be What they have to do is
they have to go. As a child,

658
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,559
my favorite game was blah blah blah. But then as I got older,

659
00:46:24,599 --> 00:46:29,119
I really wanted a cell phone,
and then soon after that, I

660
00:46:29,159 --> 00:46:32,239
was always on my phone, and
I lost my appreciation for the simple things

661
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:38,039
in life. Now I'm going to
be talking about uh, Julius Caesar and

662
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:42,840
blah blah blah and blah blah blah, all to make my point of why

663
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,639
we need to appreciate the simple things
like board games. So you have to

664
00:46:45,679 --> 00:46:52,159
make these connections in your head and
then use literature or movies or whatever to

665
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:57,280
make your examples. So I was
just like, holy fucking shit, I

666
00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,360
could never do this. I was. It's nervous. For each one of

667
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:04,280
them, I was like, and
they were all cool as a cucumber.

668
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,559
None of them seemed like really freaked
out. They were all amazing. That's

669
00:47:07,679 --> 00:47:14,000
crazy, that's such a good skill. Yeah. One girl did hers about

670
00:47:14,119 --> 00:47:17,760
the word was loneliness, and her
thing was so beautiful, and she talked

671
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:24,199
about this poet that was an introvert
and that was wrote these would go out

672
00:47:24,199 --> 00:47:31,320
into nature and turned her being an
introvert and loneliness into these beautiful poems and

673
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:35,960
how and the end of the thing
was like, try to if you feel

674
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:44,199
lonely, try to find connection through
turning your whatever sadness into art and therefore

675
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,559
connecting with other people who also feel
lonely. I was like, holy shit,

676
00:47:46,679 --> 00:47:51,159
this girl's number one. I gave
her number one. But it was

677
00:47:51,159 --> 00:47:54,039
so interesting because after we all submitted
our ballots, me and the other two

678
00:47:54,159 --> 00:48:00,599
judges conferred like yeah, we you
know, we compared notes and it was

679
00:48:00,639 --> 00:48:05,000
so interesting because like the person who
was like my number two was this person's

680
00:48:05,119 --> 00:48:07,800
last one. Like we all appreciated
different things. Yeah, you know,

681
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:12,360
that's so it's really really fun.
So then I was on a high.

682
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,079
I'm like, well here we go, baby, Like she's back. The

683
00:48:16,119 --> 00:48:19,960
coach is bad and you're like,
what time is it? How much time

684
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,519
do I have left? I still
hope, like there's more to go.

685
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,239
Two more rounds, yes, So
so there, and then I promptly did

686
00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:30,639
not get the next round and then
did not get the final round. So

687
00:48:30,679 --> 00:48:35,320
then I'm like deflated. Also in
my mind, I'm like, so basically

688
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,440
I wasn't going to get any except
that I pushed the one that I got

689
00:48:38,599 --> 00:48:44,599
I hadn't gotten originally because I complained. And then they took the coach's sister

690
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,079
off of that round, and I
think, put me on it. Do

691
00:48:47,159 --> 00:48:52,719
you think you're not clean? I'm
a dirty bird. You're a dirty bird.

692
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:58,480
Well, so here's what happened.
So I'm like having a complete internal

693
00:48:58,559 --> 00:49:05,440
battle with myself. I'm just like, I just feel like something's weird,

694
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:09,199
you know, right, But it
is ridiculous to be thinking about myself.

695
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:12,639
I mean there's like forty judges in
that room, like, you know.

696
00:49:13,519 --> 00:49:17,840
But I so I'm walking out and
the one coach from the other team who

697
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:22,159
I'd befriended was like, I'm so
sorry you didn't get like more rounds,

698
00:49:22,679 --> 00:49:25,840
and I was like, yeah,
me too. I was told myself I

699
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,719
wasn't going to complain, and then
I was like, yeah, it was

700
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,480
really weird, Like I don't understand, and she was like, oh,

701
00:49:31,679 --> 00:49:37,760
next time, you know. So
then I see my coach, the coach,

702
00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:39,960
Yeah, my coach see this is
how narcissistic I've gotten about this,

703
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:45,000
like it's all about me. My
kid's coach, I see her. Yeah.

704
00:49:45,039 --> 00:49:47,559
Meanwhile, my poor kid did not
make it even to semifinals, like

705
00:49:47,719 --> 00:49:53,079
he was eliminated early. I'm like, yeah, whatever, anyway, Sorry,

706
00:49:53,079 --> 00:50:00,480
you're stuck here because I'm judging very
important. Quit crying. I'm thinking

707
00:50:00,519 --> 00:50:02,639
about me right now. Did I
judge? Yeah, he was fine,

708
00:50:02,679 --> 00:50:07,079
by the way, he didn't care. Yeah, anyway, So I see

709
00:50:07,119 --> 00:50:10,480
our coach, the coach, and
I was like, yeah. So I

710
00:50:10,559 --> 00:50:15,039
was like, and I'm in my
mind, I'm like, don't don't say

711
00:50:15,079 --> 00:50:16,840
it. Don't say anything. And
I'm like, do you think there was

712
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:21,840
any like reason why I didn't get
round? I would like to l too.

713
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:24,280
I would ask, well, guess
what mystery is solved? She said,

714
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:29,679
you know what. She's like,
I she goes, I haven't really

715
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:31,719
seen this so much. She goes, but I have to give all of

716
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:37,239
my judges a rating. And she
goes, and you're low. You're rated

717
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:40,400
low right now. And she goes, not for any other reason besides that,

718
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:45,480
your Brett, you're new to it. She's like, so you happen

719
00:50:45,559 --> 00:50:49,119
to be on a day that I
had she goes, the last one that

720
00:50:49,199 --> 00:50:52,800
you did was a kind of lower
stakes, and she goes, and most

721
00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:54,639
of you guys were new, she
goes, but this one, I've got

722
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:59,280
my sister who's been doing it for
ten years. And then she mentioned the

723
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:05,639
other two people from our school's team
and did it all last year. So

724
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:09,000
she's like, you were my newest
judge. So you on our team of

725
00:51:09,119 --> 00:51:14,119
judges, you were rated the lowest
list. She's like, because and she

726
00:51:14,159 --> 00:51:17,119
goes, and because it's like a
high stakes, because it's this this determined

727
00:51:17,119 --> 00:51:21,400
who was going to final. She's
like, because it was high stakes.

728
00:51:22,119 --> 00:51:25,000
If I have judges here who are
higher rated than you, she goes,

729
00:51:25,119 --> 00:51:30,960
every coach has to rate their judges, she goes, So, because you

730
00:51:30,039 --> 00:51:36,880
are the lowest rated in my group
of judges who are also available, they're

731
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,719
going to go to them first.
She goes, But like next year,

732
00:51:40,199 --> 00:51:44,800
because there's no more, we're done
for the year because now the kids go

733
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,280
to states and then some kids go
to final go to state. Do not

734
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:52,639
if my kid's not there? That's
a little crazy. No, can you

735
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,719
imagine? I just I drive,
I drive to Fresno. I'm like,

736
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:59,000
Sander's like, where are you going, I'm like to the state, you

you a lot, especially in the
early realms, right right, she's but

742
00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:25,440
I was like, okay, like
I just did nothing all day. Yeah,

743
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:30,199
and then I had to stay the
whole time because they want all the

744
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:34,079
kids to stay to be good sports
for the awards ceremony, so we all

745
00:52:34,119 --> 00:52:37,440
had to sit and watch all the
kids that were going to the finals.

746
00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:42,679
And so yeah, wow, kind
of disappointing, but yeah, but you

you know, and you'll be ready for
