I Hate Winter
« on: November 30, 2006, 11:16:47 am »
Temperature just dropped 24 fucking degrees at my office in the last 20 minutes.

Is it Spring yet?

Oh, also, I had another Astros dream last night.  For some reason, the Astros were playing the Twins for Opening Day 2007.  Oswalt vs. Santana.  We lost 11-4.  Luke Scott hit a grand slam.  Lane DNP.

In a somewhat related story, I've been having nightmares about beerpong lately.

I won't get in to detail, but they're really strange.

Perhaps "Alkie's Toteboard" should become "Alkie's Dream Sequences" for the off-season.

Well, since I only seem to have Astros-related dreams like once a month, that wouldn't be such a great idea.

But if you really want to hear about the fruit stand I opened up with my ex-girlfriend from HS last night while waiting for the game to start, I'll tell you all about it.

Also, I had a nightmare two nights ago about trying to join a gym, but thank god, I woke up and it was all over.

Was it a banana stand? I hear those do well.

No, strawberries and oranges, which that dumb bitch thought would sell.  Sort of like the time, freshman year of college when she thought it would be a good idea to fuck just about every guy in Canyon, Texas, not to mention, probably a number of women.  Oh, and then she lied about it, telling me she was just going to her "gramas" for the weekend, when in fact she was going to some place called Liberal, Kansas where her new "other" boyfriend lived.  Sure, he had her class ring for some reason, but I had her sports bra.  I'm still not sure why I put up with that shit.  Fucking cunt.  WHO WANTS STRAWBERRIES AND ORANGES???

There's always money in the banana stand.

I went and saw George-Michael and Maeby at the Drafthouse a few months back. They were pimping the season 3 DVD release. George-Michael was hilarious and told some very funny stories about a creepy Scott Baio giving relationship advice to him. I wish I could translate the story to you guys, but it was simply something that has to be acted out by George-Michael.

Side note, one of the best Brit-coms I?ve seen this year, The Thick of It, has been picked up by the producers of Arrested Development to do an American translation. If The Office is any indication, it should be one of the best comedies on television. Also, tonight's Office is written by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, the shows British creators. Should be excellent.

At first, i thought you were suggesting me for the position.  My hand jumped back off my mouse like a 3 year old touching a hot stove for the first time.  I want no part of that, the job is all yours.

Last night I had to go out to watch the football game because both the NFL and Time Warner suck and I noticed one thing I love about the cold weather.  Women in sweaters.  Man, there were some beauties out last night!
