Alright people I got some issues I need to discuss:
1) I was out sick yesterday. Yep, I woke up with a bad sore throat, stuffed up, and felt like a giant assbag. So I called in and laid in bed all day like a lazy bastard. I still feel like shit but I came to work today. Just call me dedicated. I attribute my frequent illnesses and colds to the fact that I now have a young child who plays with other children all the time. Between them, they're a giant germ farm and she's always bringing something home. When I get sick I take a bell into the bedroom with me and when I need something I ring the bell and my wife brings it to me.....she's the best.
2) I went to put my pants on this morning and I needed to bust out a couple yoga moves to get into them! Now I know I sound like a chick saying this but am I getting fat?!?! Fuck yeah I am and I gots to do something about it. I needed a crowbar, pliers and vaseline to get the button snapped this morning. I felt like MacGyver! I thought my mountain biking, hiking and golfing would be enough to keep me a skinny ass but I guess not. Gots to add situps to my exercise regimen.
3) Really pisses me off when people say that you get sick if you're not dressed warm enough, or your feet are cold, or you go outside and your hair is still wet from the shower. No. WRONG! These things may make you more susceptible however, you get sick from germs and/or virus! THAT'S IT!!!!!
4) When I was down in Tampa over the weekend we were talking to a group of chicks at a table next to us in the bar. They were really cool and seemed pretty intelligent. Anyhow, one of them started talking politics so I thought to myself, "Here we go, she's gonna ruin it by saying what a lib she is and how she hates the President". Imagine my surprise when she, and her friends started talking about how conservative they are and why and all these other things. I was pleasantly surprised.....then they brought up the North Korean's having nukes. That's where I had to put my foot down and correct them. The funniest part was when one chick said, "what are you a nuclear engineer?" And I was like, "yes, as a matter of fact I am....not by profession but that's what my degreee is". Anyway, the point is, they bought all of us guys a drink. Hows about that? THEY bought US a drink. Some of the coolest chicks I have ever met....down to earth, logical, rational, fair and fun. Why the hell can't more chicks be like that?!?!?! Well at least American chicks....there's a lot of European chicks like that.
5) Why in the fuck do people drink decaffeinated coffee?
6) You know the whole weekend I was in Tampa I had to continually harass, annoy and chastise my friends for carrying around their cell phones, blackberries, huckleberries, doodads, and whatever other fucking gizmos they had hanging off their belts. COME ON!!!! Two things: 1) you're not THAT important....believe it or not when we're not at work....work goes on without us!!! Imagine that?!?!? That's why you always place someone in charge if you're not gonna be there! 2) How the fuck can you relax and have fun when your shit's going off beeping every 5 minutes?!?! Screw that noise. I called my wife to let her know I got there okay and then I turned my phone off and threw it in my bag for the weekend. We're out 13 miles offshore on a boat and everyone's trying to get a fucking signal!!!!!
7) I started bringing my own toilet paper to work. I am sick of using the sandpaper they have in all these government facilities. Plus they probably pay $92.87 per roll as it is! I can't help it if I have a fragile bunghole!
8) I am starting to get real mad about all these fucking ZEROS that drive around in their Tercels and Civics with the bass on their radio turned all the way up and their spoilers on the back and no fucking muffler and they constantly rev their engines. I have made it a point to point at them and laugh at them so they can clearly see me. Calm down Dickey.....you ain't that much of a badass.....it's a fucking Tercel dude....calm down!
9) Sascha Cohen (I think that's his name)....the guy who does Ali G and Borat? He might be the funniest dude on the fucking planet. I was watching some of his interviews he's done from the "It's Da Ali G Show" and that shit had me rolling.
10) I'd like to publicly congratulate my friends Jody and Melissa for their brand new bouncing baby girl. Congrats guys and all our best. Thank God she looks like Melissa!!
11) Lastly...the last time my wife and I went to a place that had dancing (our 10 year reunion tailgate party) I did the nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, diarreah dance.
