Wow I’m really going to be struggling for material this week.\u00a0 Too cold to go outside, I don’t feel very well, and we’re flat broke.\u00a0 Those pretty much add up to a very uneventful weekend.<\/p>\n
Friday Donette had to go out of town, leaving me home alone to watch the pups.\u00a0 After she left, it occurred to me that I really felt quite poorly;\u00a0 Feverish, achy, the whole bit.\u00a0 So, I threw down some NyQuil, put on a blanket, and thus ended Friday.<\/p>\n
Saturday brought moderately more entertainment.\u00a0 I met up with a bunch of guys down at the Brooksider to A) attend their post-Fantasy-Football-season party and B) watch the MU game.\u00a0 It’s possible that sitting in a smoky building all afternoon wasn’t the ideal environment for somebody feeling half-sick, but it was fun anyway.<\/p>\n
Sunday the “highlight” of our day was a trip to the dreaded Nebraska Furniture Mart.\u00a0 That place really wears me out for some reason.\u00a0 But, I agreed to go, because they had a pair of headphones that I wanted to pick up.\u00a0 After enduring roughly six hours of looking at furniture, I rushed down to the electronics department to get my headphones.\u00a0 Wouldn’t you know, they were out of them.\u00a0 Boy we got some super-duper furniture though.\u00a0 Tedious shopping experience aside, the trip was made somewhat more interesting by our new GPS.\u00a0 Those things are pretty fun toys.\u00a0 I’m not convinced it was the most practical purchase for a person that rarely goes over 5 miles from home, but it’s still fun.\u00a0 Heck I turned it on this morning to see how to get to the office that I’ve been driving to for 15 years.\u00a0 Can’t be too careful you know.<\/p>\n
That’s it, that’s all I got.\u00a0 Let the work week begin.\u00a0 I will add that, after the enthusiastic response to last week’s “helmet” poll, I have become convinced that I need an entire suit of armor.\u00a0 I could wear it for added protection when riding the scooter, or I may decide to go to the Renaissance Festival some year;\u00a0 The possibilities are endless.\u00a0 And, while searching the ‘Net for armor for myself, I even came across a guy that makes armor for dogs.\u00a0 Man, would I be cool walking the dogs in armor or what???\u00a0 Come on now, who looks cooler:\u00a0 These dogs<\/a> or this dog<\/a>?\u00a0 These dogs<\/a> or this dog<\/a>?\u00a0 No contest!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Wow I’m really going to be struggling for material this week.\u00a0 Too cold to go outside, I don’t feel very well, and we’re flat broke.\u00a0 Those pretty much add up to a very uneventful weekend.
