      <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.williamsledd.com/William_L._Sledd/William_Yack/Entries/2007/12/15_OMG_I_AM_UN-DATEABLE__files/Photo%20638.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.williamsledd.com/William_L._Sledd/William_Yack/Media/Photo%20638_1.jpg&quot; style=&quot;float:left; padding-right:10px; padding-bottom:10px; width:189px; height:142px;&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Well I guess most of you know that I am Single, and sorta loving it.....  I had been in a relationship for the last five years, and life after that has been hard. I guess I really didn't think what it would be like to date other people, or if it was going to be a challenge.   But guess what! It SUCKS! I don't necessarily want a bf, I mean gezz, This kid has been wearing his chastity belt for way too long. But once you have been with someone for that long, and then you wake up and no longer have that, its frankly depressing. Not having anyone to hold you, kiss you, hug you, NOTHING!  So I have been dealing with a lack of affection which has made dating hard, cause I go straight for affection which makes me in the long run look like a total CREEPER! I go straight into the hugging, kissing, cuddling mode and cant stop. (I am such a cuddlier)  I don't know how to date! I have lost all game I once had, I am such a sweet guy not to toot my own horn but, toot toot bitches! Im the kind of guy that likes to wow people. When I meet someone and we both start liking each other I am the person that goes and puts a rose on their car the next day. That sends the super sweet text messages, wants to watch them sleep, that would bend backwards for the relatively complete stranger.   So I have went the total WRONG direction in dating, I have been throwing myself out there, like a whale on pavement just flopping around. There is no chase, no thrill, just creeper me. Not that I want to play games, but there is a certain level of desire that makes dating what it is. With me there is no desire, cause I am all over you like woah!   I have a frankly different life then most, due to the industry that I am in, I have to be available 24/7 which I am. I am so connected it's sicking, email, text, voicemail, phone calls. So when normal people don't text, email, or call back I sorta freak out, cause I am SO connected. I still don't know how people live without getting email on their phones, I would die.   So its time to start in a new direction I have made 3 steps to meet new people are try to be normal.   1. I am going to Paducah's 20/30 Group to mingle and meet new people (boys). Lindsey &amp;amp; I are going tonight, so well see how that turns out.   2. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ilistpaducah.com/&quot;&gt;www.ilistpaducah.com&lt;/a&gt; has this thing called the idate of the week. I asked if Lindsey could do it with me, since we are both single. We are going to be the first ever joint idate! It makes sense cause any guy I meet she has to approve of, and same goes with her with the boys she meets. We are going to be interviewed for that Thursday, It will go up December 19th as I am told.   3. Date William Sledd the video, I believe love is out there somewhere, So why not put myself out there in a video! There will be more details on this later.  That is my plan, lets hope this bitch can find her game again!  xoxo  W</description>

It's a nasty day outside with the dark clouds rolling in from the west the sky is black, the rain falls down, you hear thunder in the distance. I pull into my driveway after getting my mail. I grab my murse, the mail, and my iPhone, walking up to the front door I stop and feel the rain hit my face for a second thinking what a dreadful day.   I approach the door, put one hand in my bag searching for my house keys, the other holding the mail and iPhone. Lighting strikes and a brief flash fills the black sky. Still searching for the keys I sift my hand to prop up my murse within a flash I hear my beloved iPhone fall to the ground, I don't immediately panic as this has happened a few other times. I reach down no longer searching for the keys and pick up my iPhone, I flip it around and see that the glass is cracked everywhere, It could be described as a baseball bat to a windshield. I fall to my knees in grief and let out a tearful moan, as the rain pours down I hear my cry echo throughout the neighborhood. I collect myself off my front step, find the keys and left myself inside. I rush in at such a panic, quickly disregarding my murse and make my way to a light to see the damaged that has occurred. I find out the beloved iPhone is still working fine, nothing is wrong, besides the disturbing, repulsive broken glass that is looking up at me.  Now I sit here, with my jacked iPhone feeling all alone in the world. AT&amp;amp;T nor Apple provided any assistance since you can not place a warranty on the iPhone. They can replace the glass for $250 + tax + shipping. I don't even want to do that, why not just buy a brand new phone? Im not sure what I will do, until then me and what I use to refer to as my child will sit and try to mange life even with a broke iPhone. I do not even see the point in living anymore.   xoxo  W</description>

Let’s take a look day by day want too?&lt;br/&gt;Tuesday - &lt;br/&gt;6:00 a.m. - Woke up&lt;br/&gt;6:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. - After I awoke I immediately started working, check emails, printing out itineraries, returning phone calls, planned out outfits, went to have my oil changed, making dinner plans, and anything else you can think of.&lt;br/&gt;1:30 p.m. - Get in my car and leave for Nashville, TN.&lt;br/&gt;2:30 p.m. - Stop at Clarksville, TN to run into Gap, (I just cant get enough).&lt;br/&gt;4:15 p.m. - I make it to Nashville, park my car, check-in and go sit at my terminal.&lt;br/&gt;5:00 p.m. - We take off for New York, (I watch Kathy Griffin on bravo the entire flight).&lt;br/&gt;8:25 p.m. - We land at JFK (now in a different time zone) The flight is only 2hrs 25min. I get off the plane go find my driver, which takes about 15 minutes! The airport was insane and i was starting to loose it.&lt;br/&gt;9:00 p.m. - I check into my hotel in midtown, freshen up (cause I am already looking adorable). &lt;br/&gt;9:30p.m. - I meet my friends Jill, John, &amp;amp; Jared, wow that is a lot of “J”. We walk to Times Square to have dinner (I was starving). Then we talk around Times Square for a bit being silly, honestly its the BEST place in the world to act crazy!&lt;br/&gt;1:30 a.m - We get back to my hotel, we sit around and talk for a little while then John &amp;amp; Jared leave, Jill is staying the night with me.&lt;br/&gt;2:30 a.m. - I go to sleep! (THANK GOD)&lt;br/&gt;Wednesday -&lt;br/&gt;9:30 a.m. - I awake to the sounds of the city, Jill is still asleep I lay there for a little while thinking, if I lived here would I get use to the noise?&lt;br/&gt;10:00 a.m. - Jill is awake we order room service. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.&lt;br/&gt;11:30 a.m. - We take a over priced cab to 5th (they went on strike, the cabbies). I go to Louis Vuitton on 5th because i hear they have the monogram canvas iPhone case. (This is a lie, they are the only store with the case on display, not for sale). &lt;br/&gt;    Stricken with grief (iPhone case), We go to Tiffany’s cause I am at the point where we have 2 hours on 5th Avenue in NYC and i want to shop dammit! Tiffany’s made things worst, because either I owned it or didn’t want it. Running out of time I go to H&amp;amp;M which is a favorite of mine, I go every time I am in the city. I buy several pairs of underwear (I do not need). &lt;br/&gt;12:45 p.m. - We walk back to the hotel, I am on the phone the entire time trying to push my flight home back another day so I can go to the Tim Gunn launch party.&lt;br/&gt;1:00 p.m. - I get into the shower and start getting ready, this is not a easy process, I need to look amazing simply because I am going to be on television. &lt;br/&gt;2:00 p.m. - Find out that the Tim Gunn launch party is not going to happen for me, I was sad but relieved. Changing plans last minute is such a bitch.&lt;br/&gt;2:15 p.m. - I finish packing, getting ready, and check out of the hotel. Downstairs I meet two very important ladies, Cynthia - Bravo PR &amp;amp; Donna - NBC they are my escorts. Love both of them. We meet someone from the Rachael Ray show which takes us to the studio.&lt;br/&gt;2:30 p.m. - Myself and the other three Youtube “experts” meet with producers to go over what is going to happen on the show and etc. &lt;br/&gt;4:30 p.m. - We tape a small piece on what we all do on Youtube, Rachael ask everyone a question. I really think I did a great job on my question, but I am sure i will end up looking like a crazy bitch somehow. The show was REALLY fun, the producers &amp;amp; Rachael where beyond nice and fun!&lt;br/&gt;5:30 p.m. - We leave the studio, We taped for about 15 minutes, said our goodbye’s, and I changed into Jeans &amp;amp; a t-shirt. My car arrives at the studio to take me back to JFK.&lt;br/&gt;6:30 p.m. - I arrive at JFK airport, I start feeling really bad, traveling takes so much out of me (Drama Queen)! I sit around the airport, check out all the new iPods online and reading everything i can find out about them (Deep down, I am the biggest geek ever).&lt;br/&gt;8:55 p.m. -  Boarding flight 1047, I am so tired that when I try to read a magazine (Macworld) waiting to take off, I literally start falling asleep reading. I wait till we take off and reach cruising altitude to get my bag down, so I can use it as a pillow and go to sleep. (No one was sitting next to me, so I made a bed. I pass out.&lt;br/&gt;10:15 p.m. - I wake up as the captain announces that we are going to make our final decent down to Nashville. My head hurts so bad, I have the worst ear ache ever, and I am so bitchy its scary.&lt;br/&gt;10:45 p.m. - We land, by this point I am half out of my mind. I go directly to my car, get in, and leave.&lt;br/&gt;1:15 a.m. - I get back home to Paducah, KY! I come inside and my dog Verdell is overly excited to see his daddy is home. I spend some time with him, bring my bags in, check my mail, check my e-mail, find something to wear for thursday.&lt;br/&gt;3:30 a.m. - I finally go to sleep after laying in my bed and watching the Apple Keynote about the new iPods &amp;amp; other announcements they made. I told you I was a geek.&lt;br/&gt;Thursday -&lt;br/&gt;5:50 a.m. - I have a horrid dream and I wake up literally crying, Honestly my entire life I have never woke up crying before. I was traumatized but so tired, I went back to sleep.&lt;br/&gt;8:00 a.m. - My cell phone rings, my wake up call. I get out of bed and start getting ready, because I still work two - three days a week at Gap. Just part-time, I can’t just quit, I’ve been there too long. Working a few days a week gets me out of the house its nice.&lt;br/&gt;9:15 a.m. - I get to work, usually I love work, not today. I look as bad as Britney when she shaved her head. Basically I worked from 9-5, took a lunch from 1-2 with my manager Michele and that is about it.&lt;br/&gt;5:00 p.m. - Finally getting off work, I have to go get some things in the mall. I go buy shampoo and other various hair products, Facial lotion at Clinique, and then I go to Best Buy.&lt;br/&gt;6:30 p.m. - I come home eat dinner, check e-mails, and sit around and try to relax.&lt;br/&gt;8:30 p.m. - My ass gets in bed. I pass out cold.&lt;br/&gt;Friday -&lt;br/&gt;2:00 a.m - I wake up for what reason there is no answer. Return some phone calls (Yes at 2:00 a.m.), check my email, and starting working on my computer and that takes us to this moment here at 5:30 a.m.&lt;br/&gt;I have been writing this blog forever, I just wanted to say that Rachael Ray airs on ABC September 11th! Set the Tivo, I’m really excited to see the show.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;xoxo  W&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;</description>
