It’s Been Too Long
Hello there. Remember me? Good. Let’s chat, I’ll get you all caught up.
The past eight days have been crazier than a sack of weasels, what with that 71 hour road trip to Denver and back (and trying to get my sleep schedule back to normal afterwards), work has been absolutely nuts (what with the Econopocalypse and all), The Benders had their final game of the season this week (we got trounced 2-6 but we had fun and looked good doing it), and finally, I hate to admit this, but I’ve been using any free time I have for writing to get the Columbus Offside back to a reputable place in the blogosphere.
I know, hard life, right?
I must admit, I’ve been having a lot of fun. But it’s not like I’ve been living in a cave either. I’ve been keeping an eye on the news. Like Slick Willy going to North Korea and convincing Kim Jong Ill to release a couple of female journalists. The potential for jokes here is huge, but I think Jon Stewart beat me to them all so I’ll skip it.
I think I heard somewhere that Billy Mays’ autopsy revealed cocaine use. Not to be too callous here, but come on, is anyone really surprised? All you have to do is watch the Slap Chop Rap to realize that these guys are all hopped up on the Bolivian Marching Powder.
At the forefront of my attention (yes, in front of The Crew) this weekend was the Sox/Yanks series. But, alas, it wasn’t really worth any attention since my Sawx got swept oin the Bronx and are now 6.5 games behind in the AL East and tied with Texas for the Wild Card. This is where I link to the Wall Street Journal Article that says the Yankees are still annoying. If the WSJ says it it must be true, right?
At least my other favorite sports team is tearing it up like piranha’s going at a cow. If I could just get Houston to stop winning we could hold onto first place in the league.
Here’s a perfect example of why it’s best not to friend co-workers on Facebook.
And, as a parting shot, here’s a trailer for a kid’s movie that I’m probably going to see at a midnight showing and if not that soon than as soon as I get off work on October 16th:
