I haven’t done laundry since the first week of this month. I am starting to wear all the xmas stuff I got that I don’t like since it is clean.
All with one day to spare
I’m the bad ass that finished his xmas shopping and wrapping with one whole day to spare. It is a record for me. I have been treating myself to some midweek bourbon as a reward. I am so ready to get the holidays over with and start the new year. Let the fun begin!!!!
WatchI have C-SPAN on now while I am getting a bit of writing in and they are showing “A Tour of the White House with Mrs. John F. Kennedy”. It first aired on Valentine’s Day 1962. The things that strikes me the most more than the poor picture quality is Jackie O’s delivery of the tour, or better stated her vocal delivery. She seems to be pilled up. I use to get the same...
I just witnessed someone eat 3 breakfast tacos and a muffin the size of my 2 fist put together in a span of about 10 minutes.

This morning
I scraped ice of my windshield for the first time since the 90’s. It still sucks and my hands were just as cold as I remembered.
WatchI have had this song stuck in my head all day long. My parents had the record this song came out on. They would listen and dance to it a lot in the way early 80’s. There are a bunch of good songs on that album including “I Feel For You” which Chaka Khan had a hit with years later. I remember thinking he has naked on the cover of the album when I was little.
When did Heroes start sucking
I have no patience to go week by week with serialized television so I usually catch a bunch of episodes online at one time or wait till the series eventually hits DVD. I just caught up on this season of Heroes and man is it sucking. Not sure if it always sucked and I am just realizing it or it was a gradual thing. I remember being really disappointed in the season 1 ending and season 2 was...
The restrooms at work
Make me just want to bring a coffee can or kitty litter box to my desk to avoid them. It is the sounds more than the smell. Disgusting I know but there should be no need to grunt while pissing.
I need some competition
My competition bone(it’s next to the funny bone) has been aching big time lately. This is the longest I have gone without being in a league, work out group or club of some sort. The most I have been doing is trying to beat my own personal best times in running, bike riding and weight lifts reps. It just quite isn’t the same. I don’t know why I but I have always loved to mix...
I miss
A real winter every now and then. I grew up getting real winters most of my life. Watching the film Let The Right One In which is set in Sweden in the winter time really took me back. I forgot about the layers that have to be worn and the almost constant runny noses that you get as a little kid running around in the cold. But overall I guess it is really more of a hassle. I will not be...
