I'm meeting my wife and daughter for lunch, then going home to watch Baseball Tonight and then throwup.

You guys?

Trying to fend off the case of the nervous sugar-shits.
How can you ask me a question like that?  Do you ask The Beatles that??

I've got about an hour and a half till beer-thirty.  That should leave me with enough time for the alcohol to kick in and calm my nerves before game time.  

They gotta win...I frick'n hate catching shit from people in the Ted after we lose.  It's worse than say STL.  At least there you know that the guys giving you shit actually have invested a little time in the team....here you know there's a better than 75% chance that the fan giving you shit can't even name a player on the team that isn't named, Jones, Jones or Smoltz...that shit just burns me up!

Last year was great though....late at the end of game one, as people were filing out of the stadium...I picked up an old foam tomahawk off the ground and started chopping at those idiots as they left in defeat.  Hope to do it again too, Lidge'm all!

OK, we really don't need play by play of your bowel movements.

I guess there never really is a genteel way to announce a "dump" is there (compliments of George Carlin)?  Sorry about that.

Sucks for me. 3 hours of classes, hour and a half of tutoring (I'm the tutorer), then who knows how long on a group project starting 5:15, and then an hour drive home. Thank goodness for DVRs. Nobody email me the game results, please... I'm going to refrain from even tuning in to 740 on the drive.

Our receptionist is out on vacation this week, so I'm lucky enough to fill in for her today.  No tv, no radio, no getting up to check the tv in the kitchen/break room...I'm hoping to find an internet stream somewhere.  At worst is Gameday.
How can you ask me a question like that?  Do you ask The Beatles that??

Stoopid Tammy has rearranged my work schedule.  I'm driving the guys towards a 4pm (eastern) deadline while discreetly peeking at OWA.  I've heard two of them mutter, "what's gotten into him, what's so special about 4pm today?"...  I feel a little bad.  But only a little.
Another trenchant comment by a jealous lesser intellect.

Work. Setting up the last batches that lock up the system and make it look like things are being accomplished.

Gameday for the first hour or so with a slim chance of radio, then home by 4 to catch the exciting conclusion.
It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of 'em was one kinda sombitch or another.

Trying to wrap up all the shit I need to get done today so I can pay as much attention to the game.  It's not looking good though so I may have half a mind on the game and take care of the simple tasks at work so I don't screw up anything important.  I don't know how anyone gets anthing done without multi-tasking anyway.  It just so happens one of those multiple tasks will be Astros/Braves starting at 3pm.... too bad it's on ESPN.  Anyone know who's doing the tv coverage?  Please let it be anyone but Joe Morgan or The Swammi.  The Swammi will figure out some way to throw in a Barry Bonds figurative blow job as usual....
Apathy, Apathy, Apathy ... ahh screw it...

Done:
- Left class early
- Took off work
- Dug Astros jersey out of closet

Left to do:
- Feed the john.  Glad I'm not the only one.

1. Working
2. Prepping for Milo-based confusion
3. Trying not to throw up

Gorget:  an ornamental collar

So you don't want him to wear an ornamental collar.  Are you expecting he can give himself a pearl necklace?
Goin' for a bus ride.

I used to work in an office with two secretaries, Lynn and Vicky.  Lynn was super-hot and rude, but totally flat-chested, while Vicky was pretty and sweet with humongous milk jugs.  Us lads were joking around about a "pearl necklace" and were overheard by Lynn.  She had no idea what we were talking about, so I told her to go and ask Vicky.

Two minutes later I got a stapler thrown at my head.
Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

I took a sick day yesterday.  In between my bouts of sleep and delirium, I watched the better parts of all 3 games.  Unfortunately, I'm better today which means I'm back at work. I'll have to listen to the first part of the game on the radio and watch the remainder on the DVR after I get home from class tonight.  It might be late tonight cause the wife will want me to watch Lost with her when I get home from class.  Damn the suspense.
Oh God, I wish I was a loofah!

It's almost checkout time.  I'm heading to the school to pick up my sons so we can watch the game at the house.  60" HD turning down the center speaker (Milo) and cranking up all the field and croud noise.  A little popcorn, peanuts, rootbeer and cold cerveza make for a great opening day of the playoffs with the kiddos!  If the little one gets away when it's diaper changing time we even have our own streaker!

Well, whatever you did TODAY, you're doin' tomorrow.  So everyone remember where you were sitting and who you were talking to.

Listen, I have every intention of wearing the same beat-to-shit Astros T that I had on today (unlaundered, of course), but I am NOT staying 4 hours late at work just to keep the routine intact.
