give me a “who-haw, two-times-Tuesday!”

Tuesday, November 13th, 2007

so…I want to be so wrong on this, but, the Red Sox are going to screw this whole deal with Mike Lowell, all on the grounds of a fucking year — but, they’ll contemplate giving a 10-year, $300+ million offer to Arod?
2008 might be the year of the idiot all over again…

the one where the Red Sox win and I become a grumpy old man

Tuesday, October 30th, 2007

so…the Red Sox won the World Series — yay!
so…the City of Boston is having a “rolling rally” for the Red Sox today — boo!
large crowds stress me out. I don’t get stressed out at the game — those people belong there — but the thousands of extra people standing outside my office building, and taking […]

good morning, part 2

Monday, October 22nd, 2007

so…two posts in one morning…some strange is afoot…
actually, nothing strange, just three more things…
to counter the effects of the 5 people in the office that MUST turn on ALL of the overhead lights in the office WITHOUT warning, I need to invent a “cone of darkness.” It would be like the “cone of silence” on […]

we have a neighborhood skunk, and on occasion I’ll see him in the morning. We exchange civil looks and the occasional grunt — mine saying “dude! We’re cool, I’m just moving sllllooooowwwwly to my car” and his saying “hey, you allllmmmooost scared me, but I’m too tired to spray you, so I’ll let […]

so…it’s been almost two years since I’ve worked in a building where I’ve needed a key to get into the Men’s room, yet I still reach for my keys almost every single time.

There’s a guy at work that I like to call Dick Butkus, for obvious reasons, and he NEVER wears socks! Ever! Even in […]

so…Ant Invasion 2007 has commenced in our kitchen, and I’ll go on the record as saying I support a reduction in troops immediately!
Fucking ants!
I thought we were going to luck out this year, because the invasion usually occurs in the spring, but nooooooo, we’ve got to be in some bizarre El NiƱo con mi primo […]

Call it direct. Call it collect. But, call it TODAY!!

Monday, September 10th, 2007

so…I got to bed an hour earlier last night, and I overslept by an hour this morning. For all the extra sleep, I feel like crap!
I’ve been fight a sinus headache for about a week, and I think without the normal fog that I’m in during the early morning hours the headache is taking every […]

kinda yeti-ish

Friday, September 7th, 2007

so…when you were in, oh, maybe, kindergarten, or first grade, were you taught to always walk on the right when on the stairs or in a hallway?
well, nobody that I work with was EVER taught that!
AND they like to walk side-by-side down the hallway that only has room for two people…and look at you […]

dang! Which one is Pink?

Friday, August 31st, 2007

so…yesterday turned out to be the longest work day I’ve had in 6-7 years: 6am - 9 pm.
True, there was a quarterly business meeting last night that might have involved some drinks, but seriously, how relaxing is a drink if you’re talking about work?

Yesterday, being Thursday, the local Classic Rock station was pulling off a […]
