November 26th

Turns out that I took like...14 days off. A fortnight if you will. Back to it.

  • My computer is on the 30 day DL retroactive to the 16th. Three weeks basically. Some bullshit about a piece of solder and the motherboard. Turns out I might lose everything too. Which is only mildly depressing. It isn't depressing because I have a lot of important stuff. Everything that I had on there I was done with and had been turned in. It is depressing because I am in season two of a Madden Franchise that I am 7-5 in and fighting for a playoff spot. Again, not a big deal, just a little irritating.
  • I am not in the Christmas Spirit and refuse to be until something important happens. Like December first, that would work. Plus, Christmas commercials blow. Really, let's do something creative. And as soon as I see one of those wackass Kleenex commercials with the claymation-esque noseblowers, I'm going to blow a gasket.
  • If Ohio State goes to the National Championship game, I am going to watch the game with Geoff. Drunk. That's the only way to watch OSU football, or any other Big 10 team for that matter. Plus, we will have a bet if they play West Virginia. For each point that WV wins by, I get one dollar. For every point OSU wins by (not bloody likely) I he gets a dollar. I have complete faith I will win at least $14 in this scenario.
  • How good is home? I mean honestly. I like it here at school but home is where it is at. Watching the Cavaliers at the Q or at home with my Dad, talking literature with my mother, hanging out with my brother when he is around and not at work...it's fantastic. I just had a week at home. Good Lord, how hard is it to come back to school after that? Damn near impossible. And the thing is, I know people who miss school when they are at home. How? I miss home when I am at school and I am counting the days until I get to go home for winter break.
  • Turns out that my knee is OK. I know that you were worried. No big deal. Just a little twisty, that's all.
  • If Anderson Varejao doesn't want to play in Cleveland anymore, that makes two of us. He isn't going to get his money regardless. I'm just irritated that we didn't trade him last season to get Mike Bibby like I was saying we should have...on my other blog. I called all of this. Once I figure out how to link, I'm going to link to that. Fuck him. And fuck his brother and his agent. They can all go to Brazil and hang out and wait for nobody to want to pay them.
  • Today I began a diet. Workout and or racquetball four days a week, Slimfast for at least one meal a day, cut down on fat, increase proteins and fruits and veggies. I will let you know how it works. This came about because I'm bigger than I ought to be and need to drop about 15 or 20 pounds. It can be done. I just have to make it happen. One thing is for certain, around Christmastime and New Years, fuck the diet. I am pulling out all the stops. As my friend J-Cro would say "To hell with health right now. Eat. Drink. And for God's sake, be merry. It's a celebration bitches". Amen to that. And by the way, if over break you see me eating leftover beans, ham, cookies, and potato salad and drinking a beer or a glass of wine...don't you dare say anything, if I respond, you will be sad about yourself.

Donnage out.

1. Remember how computers make our lives so much easier and better. Sigh.

2. I'm holding out for a C-mas Viagra or Cialis commercial to really drive home what the holiday means. Not really. No.

3. If I comment about that, I'll be acknowledging something that I believe is beneath my notice. What game? Who? Exactly.

4. Speaking of literature, when you read Ethan Frome, just take a real good look at that pickle dish. It's so much more than a pickle dish.

5. What's this about your knee, now? LOL.

6. Someone needs to tell Anderson that he's not going to get paid for his looks. "Hey Anderson! Shut up, you big whiner, and fire your money-grubbing, golddigger of an agent, remember you're not a franchise player, listen to the silence coming from your telephone from other teams NOT calling you, and sign your freaking contract!"

7. Is Slimfast on your mealplan? And remember, "eat less/move more." Diets are a bitch if you deprive yourself too much. Use moderation, not deprivation. Wow. I just sounded like Jesse Jackson. I feel like that's never a good thing.

There are lots of empty calories in alcohol. I'm just saying.

1. Yeah, most of the time...except the other 40% of the time when people tell you it's easier but it's not.

2. If there is an ED commercial, I'll take a bottle of Viagra and go Christmas shopping in a pair of 501's.That's the bet.

3. You would.

4. Ethan Frome is a bitch.

5. Knee is solid now. No worries.

6. Same as four.

7. Yes, actually. $13 for a 12 pack. It works out, no worries.

If calories from alcohol are empty, why do they make people gain weight? I HATE the term "empty calories" they really aren't empty...if they are...all calories are.
