The Summer of George…err, Scott

So, as many of you know, I will be leaving my job at the Starlight Children’s Foundation on Dec. 23 in preparation of going back to school to receive my MBA.  Being that school does not start until August, I will be devoting this extra time towards self-enlightenment, volunteering and learning a foreign language.  This blog will be a document of my self improvement.

Say it with me now…

BULLSHIT!

In reality, I don’t even know what self-enlightenment means.  There was an episode of Seinfeld in which George received three months of severance pay after being laid off by the New York Yankees and instead of searching for a new job, he takes the summer off and declares it the “Summer of George”.  While George had good intentions at the start, according to wikipedia, his “summer” consisted of:

  1. Reading a book, from beginning to end and in that order.
  2. Playing frolf. He plays at least once.
  3. Watching television programming, like The White Shadow and the Tony Awards.
  4. At least in the first couple days, he intended to relax or as he termed it, de-compress. Jerry derogatorily refers to this period as decomposing.
  5. Purchasing a new recliner with a refrigerator in it, stocked with soda.
  6. Mid-morning naps.
  7. Insignificant telephone conversations.
  8. Banging his head on tables.
  9. Assisting Jerry in maintaining his relationship with Lanette (Amanda Peet), a younger woman Jerry is dating. He acts as Jerry’s relationship intern, ex, making dinner reservations on Jerry’s behalf, coordinating Jerry’s outfits, suggesting compliments, purchasing invitations for a party that Lanette is throwing, etc.
  10. Growing a mustache.

While I too have good intentions with my time off, and yes, I do plan on doing some volunteering and using Rosetta Stone to brush up on my Spanish, I could easily see my “summer” going the way of George’s.  This blog will chronical the “Summer of Scott” and exactly what I do during my days.

And for you drinkers out there, do not worry…a blog drinking game will be coming in the near future, as I have a feeling this blog will be a better read when drunk.

Stay tuned!
