I find myself in a particularly foul temperament this morning, even for a Monday.\u00a0 It’s only 9:30, and the day is already heading south rapidly, possibly setting the tone for an entire week of foul-ness.\u00a0 I woke up entirely too early for one thing.\u00a0 That’s not so unusual an occurrence, and generally easily overcome by the newspaper and a pot of coffee, but my paper didn’t even show up today.\u00a0 Yep gonna be one of those weeks.\u00a0 Another contributing factor is my less-than-brilliant decision to get braces several weeks ago.\u00a0 I guess it’s been about six weeks now, and they are still nothing less than miserable.\u00a0 Granted, I seem to make more than my share of poor decisions, but I’d rank this one right up there with joining the Army, or working for Saga.<\/p>\n
I suppose I am obligated to recap our weekend, although it may have a rather negative slant to it.\u00a0 It probably usually does anyway.\u00a0 Friday was no doubt the highlight of the weekend.\u00a0 For one thing, I had the day off, which always makes for a solid day.\u00a0 We puttered around the city not doing a whole lot all afternoon, then met up with the regular gang down at the Brooksider around 3:00.\u00a0 Later in the day a veritable horde of co-workers showed up to join us, and we ended up staying the dreaded way-too-long.<\/p>\n
Saturday didn’t bring much in the way of entertainment, for me at least.\u00a0 I ran the dogs for a bit to wear them out, watched the MU game, and that’s about it.\u00a0 Meanwhile, Donette attended various “girls-only” activities.\u00a0 Her social engagements went well into the evening, leaving me and the mutts alone to play Doom III and watch movies.\u00a0 I bought that Doom game several weeks ago (yeah I know it’s like a 5 year old game) in my ongoing attempt to enjoy computer games.\u00a0 At this point I have to think I am never going to figure out those stupid games.\u00a0 I pretty much just run around lost, running into walls and getting beat up by random creatures.\u00a0 Sort of like a virtual version of my actual day;\u00a0 At least I can turn the game off.<\/p>\n
Sunday, of course, was the big Superbowl game, woo-hoo.\u00a0 We went to a party, so that ain’t all bad.\u00a0 These stupid braces cut into my enjoyment something fierce though.\u00a0 They had a huge BBQ spread out for the game;\u00a0 Ribs, brisket, burnt ends, pork, and sausage.\u00a0 Hmmm, where to start?\u00a0 I ended up with a double serving of macaroni.\u00a0 I tried to gnaw through a few chunks of pork but they just tasted like pain.\u00a0 Hey, only 18 months to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
