Patience Is Not My Virtue Today

July 9th, 2009

My last 24 hours have comprised of this:

A super cool thing gets planned that I cannot talk about yet but a few minor (read: could be potentially HUGE) details need to be worked out first.

E-mail a couple of people to see if they can help work them out.

Try to sleep.

Wake up and check e-mail.

Try to distract myself.

Talk more about this super awesome thing with those that are in the know at this moment.

Check e-mail.

Try to distract myself.

Check e-mail.

Look at clock and realize I just checked e-mail 30 seconds ago.

Check e-mail.

Curse myself out for checking e-mail once again.

Look at pictures.

Check e-mail.

Curse myself out yet again for being obsessive/compulsive.

Check e-mail.

Tweet too much at yet another failed attempt to distract myself.

Check e-mail.

Refresh, refresh, refresh.

DAMN IT I AM DOING IT AGAIN!

Look at pictures.

Get frustrated and walk away from computer to take a nap and try to clear my head.

Wake up 45 minutes later after dreaming about what is being planned, e-mail and Twitter.

Check e-mail, refresh, refresh, GAH!

Tweet excessively.

Check e-mail.

Write blog while checking e-mail.

Get frustrated with myself some more and wish I could share what is going on.

Check e-mail.

Looks at clock and grumbles that time is passing way too slowly today.

Check e-mail.

Publish blog.

About
- Confirmed to be a “Geek God” by some online quiz and dubbed “The Queen of Geek” by many of her fans, Julia “Jules” Sherred is a mother, writer, author, radio personality, blogger, gamer, tech enthusiast, science nerd, sci-fi and fantasy freak, hard core Trekker, has an unnatural obsession with Optimus Prime and so much more. She emerged from the womb fully embracing her geeky tendencies, with a book on Astrophysics in one hand and a deck of cards in the other. Growing up, games were always an important part of her family, including family board game nights, Christmas family poker games and trying to pry the ColecoVision® and later NES controllers from her mother’s hands. She has now passed on this tradition to her own children and is raising the next generation of geeks and gamers.
  
  In early 2008, she was hired by Party 934 as their Program Director. When the station finally hit the airwaves in September 2008, that is when she began to host her Geeky Pleasures radio show. Once a week for 2 hours, she played a wide variety of music including many geeky songs and discussed with her listeners some geek topic of the week. She has had some pretty well-known geeks sit across from her during her shows, including interviews with: The King of Geek Wil Wheaton, MTV Executive Producer Shane Nickerson, Bad Astronomer Phil Plait PhD and geek music sensation Jonathan Coulton. In 2009, she also took on the additional duties of Assistant General Manager of the station and launched her Geeky Pleasures website when her show and blog could no longer adequately fill the demand she was receiving to share her “unique brand of geekiness”. Due to a change in circumstances, she stepped away from her radio show, her AGM and PD duties at the station.
  
  After helping to create and build another radio station in 2010, she decided it was time for her to move on and do her own thing, enabling her to make a specific vision a reality. With a passion for music, entertaining the world and helping others to realise their same dreams, she is extremely happy to be launching The Look 24/7, where the Geeky Pleasures Radio show, plus more, will continue to live.
  
  With a soft-launch in May 2011 and full launch on June 1, 2011, and with an emphasis on independent musicians, The Look promises to bring a wide variety of programs to fit anyone's needs. From Talk and Comedy, Hip Hop and R&B, Alternative and Rock, Dance and Electronic to everything in between.
  
  Other places you can find her online are becoming a fan of Geeky Pleasures on Facebook, her personal blog http://blog.juliasherred.com, check out the Lupus Awareness Virtual Art Gallery at http://lupus.juliasherred.com and by following her on Twitter @GeekyJules.
  
  Other sites and publications which she contributes to are: Star Wars Vs Star Trek, The Lupus Magazine, Nerds in Babeland, GeekMom and she is the Layout and Design Editor of The Vaccine Times.
