So this weekend has been lousy, to say the least. Come to think of it, I can’t remember the last time I could say I had a great weekend. I’m going to try and work on that I’m due for one.
Anyway, reason why this weekend sucked is because I’m not feeling well. Headache, sore throat, chills, etc. And what makes it suck even more is that I just got my flu shot last Wednesday. I guess I got it too late. Damn. But today I spent most of the afternoon/early evening sleeping off the pain. And that leads to me not being able to sleep right now. So that is why I’m up posting this. Because I’m tired of sleeping. Yeah, I guess it is possible to be tired of sleeping. And the other thing is that me being sick is cutting into my preperation for the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. Man, I need all the training I can do for that.
I’m hoping to get my week going on the right foot tomorrow. Maybe that will lead to a great weekend. I never thought about it like that. Well, I guess I’m going to down a couple of NyQuil to help me go back to sleep. I hope all of you out there are feeling better than I am. And hopefully you’re looking better than I am, too. Trust me. It ain’t pretty.

Seriously. I am witnessing this phenomenon. I see it happening everywhere. From my roommate, to co-workers, to my neighbors. My heart goes out to them.

I made it clear to anyone that would listen (mostly my dogs) that there was no way I would ever buy or play Guitar Hero World Tour. Why, you may wonder? How can I support a product that is endorsed by a rapist (Kobe), a first-class prick (A-Rod), a first-class dork (Michael Phelps), and Tony Hawk, whom I have absolutely nothing against? Seriously, when I saw this commercial, I almost puked. I feel bad for Tony Hawk for having to be associated with these shmucks. And I just pity Michael Phelps and his stupid “I’m just happy to be here” grin. I do feel I should be more specific when referring to A-Rod as a prick, because I know that could be applied to Kobe as well.
Anyway, I guess the jokers promoting Guitar Zero got enough complaints, because they came out with a much better version of the commercial featuring Heidi Klum! Yes! I like it. Will I buy or play the game now? Absolutely! I lie. Of course I won’t. But I forgive them. And now I have a new video to watch.

Today I turn 33 years old. But I will always be a kid at heart, as evident by some of the pics below. And I know a couple of you think 33 isn’t that bad, but in the mornings it feels more like 53.
Anyway, I know this is kind of late since everyone now has ditched their costumes and now have Turkey on the mind, but here are some pics from my Halloween 2008 experience. Pretty good costumes! I wish I were that creative.
And the following pics are from my blogging brothers and sisters listed on my blogroll. Thanks to all of you that got into the spirit Halloween! Click on the pic to go to their respective blogs. I encourage you to ask them to explain their costumes, because a couple of them are head-scratchers.

So Barack Obama is the newly elected President of the United States. And although I don’t trust the guy, he is my nation’s leader. And I will support him for as long as his decisions allow me.
For the record, I’m glad Obama is a snob. I expect the leader of the greatest country on Earth to be pretty cocky. So at least he’s got that down. And now he’s got 4 years to convince me he is worthy of my vote next time. But the one thing I truly look forward to in an Obama presidency is that all my liberal friends will finally stop whining about everything. In that case, silence is golden. Thanks, Barry!

My buddy Jason sent this to me. Pretty funny! Especially that sweet old lady. I wonder if she kisses her grandchildren with that mouth.
At least I know that I would be a hero to a good chunk of the country. But on the flip side, I guess I would be hated by quite a few. Nothing new there.

So I am going to start training for the Turkey Trot, which is a 4 mile run that takes place Thanksgiving morning (Procrastination, I know). I guess they started doing this so that people don’t feel so bad after eating so much Thanksgiving dinner because they already had a morning workout. I’m not going to lie. I’m doing it so that I can eat more pumpkin pie.
Anyway, so as I start this training, I feel the need to bust out the Nike Plus gear. I haven’t used it in quite a while, so I’ll have to make sure it is all working properly. I’ll be going for a run later this evening and you’ll be able to track my progress on the sidebar of the blog. I know you will be scratching your collective heads after looking at my numbers, but don’t worry, they will be correct. I am just in that bad of shape.
