My Canadian friends would be proud.

Bowling is out…Hockey is in. And I’ll tell you, it was easy to get good Bruins seats, which doesn’t surprise me because I guess they suck. I’m not a huge Hockey guy but I figure if I don’t see a Hockey game at least once in my life then I can’t really make an informed decision, so Hockey it is. I’ll tell you what’s harder than finding good Bruins seats…is finding a Ladies Bruins Hat. I went to the mall during lunch and wouldn’t you know it…those Pink Bruins hats I always see don’t exist within a 10 mile radius …

Careful of the bones…

February 5, 2008

Due to complications beyond my control Bowling is out of the question. I’m actually kind of glad, because I’m not known for my bowling skills but it would have been fun. We’re still hanging out tonight but now it’s up to me to come up with something new…should be interesting. Another accomplishment of note, it’s been 23 days since I’ve smoked. Although it’s been tough and I’ve really wanted to smoke…I haven’t. That’s not to say I won’t in the future, but wouldn’t have been surprised if I had slipped. Breathing is definitely better and I’m looking forward to working …

Which Version do you like?

February 5, 2008

If you cue them both up just right you can play them simultaneously…it’s pretty neat to alternate volumes. Shows the true differences in the songs. The Original… [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDAaevTq51I] Or the Travis Barker Version… [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnzXTGn3i58] I’m not generally a fan of hip-hop but I really liked the Travis Barker version more. It almost sounds like a different song…pretty cool…and creative. Kudos Travis.

Pondering beyond my capacity.

I’m not sure if the caption on the photo above, is correct…do you know? What is the spark that connects people together? What is that bond that, once established, forms a connection that transcends words and actions? Every time I seem to get close I realize how far away I am. I used to think it was a singular reaction of self, but I now believe it’s really much more than that. It has to be more than being dazzled by a smile or a flirtive look. It’s got to more than spending time with someone or going through something …

Autostitch Tests!

This is a panoramic view of my office. Click to see the full view. It’s pretty good how it autostitches right on the camera itself. In case you’re wondering I sit at the only open desk with the monitor on.

Fuck it Dude, let’s go bowling.

February 4, 2008

I’m refusing to think or talk about the Patriots for the time being. It’s part of the first stage of tragic loss, Denial. Instead, I’m concentrating on bowling. I’m no bowler mind you, but I’ve tossed the ol’ball before. I’m actually thinking about wearing pajama bottoms just like “The Dude.” I’m not sure where we’re going but I know there’s going to be a throwdown. In one corner a 105lb luscious lane lounger, Laurie. In the other corner, the wiley and resourceful Mookie. I think the higher your score the better? I’ll need to remember how to keep score. While …

I’m completely shocked.

Giants 17 Patriots 14

It’s Superbowl Sunday.

February 3, 2008

The game is about to start and I’m sitting here getting comfy, ready to watch the game alone. I’ve got the steak tips marinating for halftime and I’m going to get drunk on Sprite Zero. The joys of being single… I went out to dinner with my old friend last night and we had a great time. I was introduced to the magic of Merlot, which went beautifully with my steak. My date was beautiful and we had great chemistry talking the evening away. After dinner she drove my car believe it or not. You’ve got to know she is …

21 Days…

February 2, 2008

Smoke free for 3 weeks…how much longer can this madness continue? It seems that the longer I’ve not been smoking the stronger the cravings are. The smoking dreams kill me…I wake up dying for a cig. It’ll get better I hope, I’m sure it will…right?

Bold Prediction…ok maybe not so bold.

February 1, 2008

There are a lot of things you need to consider when coming up with a score for the upcoming Superbowl. There has been so much talk over the last two weeks that a lot of people, including many sportscasters have the game as a ‘pick’em’ which I find incredibly difficult to believe. Most people bring up the last regular season game where the action was competitive but you’ve got to remember the whole right side of the offensive line and TWO tight ends weren’t playing that day. /whatever [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEAP8OeT718] I’m not worried and I’m sure the Pats will continue to …
