Day
Last night I headed over for the Texas Holdem game at a buddy's place.
It is always fun. Fortunately, we are all broke so we only play for a
$10 buy in. I lost $20 (two rounds) and ended up listening to one of
the other guys tel stories about his work experiences. He is an old oil
field pipe-fitter construction worker. He had us rolling out on the
patio. I cannot do the stories justice. He mentioned how he got in
fights on the job, and how his crew was one of the first drug tested in
the early eighties. "... The guy got out of his car and a plumb of
smoke rose when he opened the door. ..." He told a story of getting mad
at a boss and chasing him through the plant in a truck with huge steel
booms banging around behind him. I nearly split my side. He is off to
Iraq after a back surgery. He said he might pull down some really good
money.
This morning I had the nasties hang over. I had been having problems
with my ears and nearly toppled over a bunch of times at the card game.
I drank one of those things
these guys made and I nearly passed out. One of the guys had three of
them.
I'm about to order some Wal-itin online. I've heard some people say to
take two of the damn things in the beginning to get rid of the
allergies. Then , drop back to one a day after a week or two.
I broke down and ordered some sandwiches from a pizza place. I know I
complain allot about being chubby, but I am dreadfully lazy.
No one told me it was the day to switch your clocks forward. I nearly
missed it. I still have a couple of clocks to go.
Blog Surfing
You know you enjoy doing something when you say "Just one more." and
you find yourself still doing it after ten or fifteen more. I catch
myself doing this with blogs. I have motivated myself to read and
comment on a bunch of blogs when I can. This is really just to bring
traffic to my site, or at least, it started out that way. I will sit
down at the computer and say "I don't feel like it." and before I know
it, I've done it for three hours. I'm getting more picky who's blog I
leave comments on. I get plenty of hits this way, but I've noticed my
number of comments has dropped since I set it to ignore anonymous
posts. I don't really care about that. I would rather have quality than
quantity.
I've been doing the rounds of Blogger and Bloglines. The trouble is, as
I mentioned in an earlier post, that nearly every post is about the
Pope. I just can't bring myself to scream at people on the subject, so
I'll keep my mouth shut.
It wasn't me. You can't prove anything.
