In the words of the immortal Ice Cube
"It's Friday and you ain't got sh*t to do."
Word to that!
The world according to, as it pertains to and how it revolves around me.
Alright, Boston's day in the sun is almost over and hopefully we can get back to some sort of normalcy. Lot's of protests and celeb sightings have been going down but unfortunetly I have not been able to check any of them out.
Ride uneventful and I have ceased caring.
Son, let me tell you something about life and women:
I shouldn't even be here today.
Hey guys, this is a very special week. The DNC is in town for the next 4 days and I'll be coming at you as often as I can with my nonpartisan take on things.
Saw I, Robot this weekend. And much to everyone else's disagreement I thought it was a pretty good movie. Quite frankly I think the movie was marketed all wrong. This wasn't your typical Will Smith summer blockbuster fare. There was no comedic cornball angle, no one getting jiggy with it and we are still waiting on the Pepsi/Taco Bell tie-ins. Instead it was a psychological thriller with Smith flexing his acting chops just as much as his still Ali-esque muscles.
My commuter rail was delayed for an hour today. One freaking hour. And this had absolutely nothing to do with the DNC traffic snarls. This was a simple old-fashioned case "engine trouble"... or so they tell us.
Well it's Friday morning and the WillStock has come and gone. I HAVE A SPLITTING HEADACHE. God does this feel anticlimactic. And for one very good reason: Will is sitting across from me right now. Still at work. Hey you got to give it to the guy he is a trooper. He took his licks like a champ last night and made it in to work at 8:30 (lucky for him Kerry got him home in once piece).
Let the games begin!
Dear Ron,
Have been living at home for the past two years and there's only so many movies to watch and if you go to the Orchid more than once a month you can really sign up for full-fledged townie status (shudder). So when the chance to do something fun arises, I jump at the opportunity... and jump I did.
The lovable, slimmed and trim Jared Fogle has returned once again to tout Subway, in the fight against... childhood obesity?
No decision is completely arbitrary. Roll a die, pick a card – some unarticulated motive will affect the outcome. Nothing is pure chance.
When all of a sudden you realize how hot one of your acquaintances, friend or even coworkers are. BAM! It just hits you. Wow, she is really hot. A girl that I know has just returned from an extended hiatus and for whatever reason... I'm totally digging her this morning. Maybe it's the fact that I haven't seen her in a while? Maybe it's that freshly bronzed tan that she is sporting from a week away on holiday? Or perhaps, it's that snug black cotton/lycra top she is wearing. Yeah, it's definitely the top. Sweater kittens are a glorious thing ladies. :)
I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes
I am writing this because I know that you will be reading this. I hope that the old saying is true and that the third time is the charm. Of all the people I have given my heart to, you are the one I want to continue having in my life. Whatever silly, beautiful, ugly thing that we had for the past year was a part of me. That is why it hurts so much; you were a part of my life and now that you are gone, a part of me has gone too. The finality of this is really quite sobering. Like I said I never want things to go back the way they were because the way things were, was not letting you be happy. I wish things could be that unique, special thing that we once shared. However brief and fleeting that special time was, it was worth it.
Well, the streak is finally over. Eric Gagne's streak of 84 straight saves ended Monday night when the Arizona Diamondbacks scored a run in the ninth. 84 saves over the course of two-seasons. Amazing.
Last night was a pretty tough pill to swallow. I was supposed to pick up my cousin Jon at Logan last night after work. His plane should have arrived shortly before six which would have been perfect for me. Leave work the normal time and swing by. Pick him up, grab some drink and food, watch the game. For some weather related reason his plane did not come in until almost 8. Fine I'll just wander around the city for a bit. And then the beauty of airport traffic and believing Massport. Exits changed, roads closed. There's a reason I always fly out of Providence. And if anyone wants to visit me, I advise you flying into T.F. Greene.
Just sitting here quietly at work doing BzzReports and all of a sudden Tim freaks out. Something from the ceiling has been dripping on him and he just now realized what it was: urine. The company above us has a dog and it seems that they forgot to take him for a walk today. Tim is not amused. He is covered in dog piss. So is his desk, his laptop, and his mouse pad. I'm sorry I can't stop laughing, Tim.
