A Couple Days in the Life...

All of the following things happened to me in a recent 48 hour span.


- Got pulled over, was given a warning

- Drove 200 miles, the last 35 was bumper to bumper and took me 2 hours, thanks shoobies…

- Worked 17 of those hours

- Took a shot of something at 5 am, then had a peach with some girl while discussing a threesome

- Took some big gulpsss…

- Sucked at thumper

- Made fun of Christie lol

- Heard the following line from Rich's gay neighbor: "Dude stay with her cuz she is hott! Look at her! I'd tear that skirt she's wearing off in a second!" (laughter and utter shock) "What? I mean so I can wear it!"

- Showed up an hour late for work stuck in traffic with no phone to alert the boss I’d be late

- Had some lady from PA tell me as she pulled into a parking space in front of me that the space was only room for one car, while I, who live in NJ and work half a block away from said parking space, routinely park/drive by there if it’s taken and see 2 cars parked there easily, then gave her the finger and drove off.

- Walked into work still hungover/buzzed (at 430pm)

- Talked to 3 different cops – one pulled me over, one called me a dumbass, one said he could smell that I came from work

- Ended the night with a delish cake

Rapid Fire: Things On My Mind 8/6

I feel like all of you feel that you should be feelin what I’m feelin on some of the most recent topics. Due to the economy, I can only write one or two lines about how I feel about each issue. Thus, here’s a rapid fire edition of Things on My Mind:


1. The Cliff Lee trade: It’s definitely the smartest move the Phils could have made. No need to give up Happ and Drabek for a horse.

2. Not getting Halladay: He’s great and all, but I still don’t think it’s smart to give up Drabek

3. Funny People: Adam Sandler’s best film in a long time, and shows that Apatow doesn’t just grind the same formula into every movie

4. Serving mornings: It’s nice not to be in the kitchen, but honestly, making like, what 25 bucks on average? I’d rather just sleep in…

5. Pearl Jam – The Fixer: Very cool track, and pretty catchy. Lyrics written by their drummer so they’re not too impressive but they are still cool.

6. The amount of Yankee shirts that Klein has: Well, the amount of Phillies shirts I own is steadily increasing… I think at a higher rate too. I got three in the span of a week during the All-Star game so if I keep that average up, I’ll have one for every Phillie that ever played by 2011.

7. Panic at the Disco losing 2 members: Hahahahhaha like I actually am going to waste your time…

8. Me saying that I won’t waste your time, even though I have possibly the worst blog since Rob Manning’s “You Know What Really Grinds My Gears”: Umm, ok… you win.

9. The ‘stache: Yes, I still have it. No, you can’t touch it… unless you ask nicely. No, if you’re one of the people who read this blog, no mustache ride for you…

Things I’d Rather Do than Go to Work

Well I have to leave for work in about an hour, and I really REALLY do not feel like going. Since I REALLY don’t feel like going and/or moving from my computer, I will now come up with 20 random things that I would rather do than go to work tonight. And if you know me at all, you’ll know that these things that I will come up with are already things I try to avoid on a daily basis... but hey, I’d take them all over going to work…


1. Intentionally fall down the stairs

2. Look at my fantasy baseball standings

3. Hit up redtube and search “guy on guy”

4. Watch Ryan Howard strike out 4 times in a game

5. Drive all the way to work, fake an injury as soon as I get there, leave to go to the hospital, and drive back home

6. Hump a midget

7. Duct tape my feet together, walk/hop 1.5 miles to Wawa, order a turkey shorti, and hop back

8. Purchase something from the Loyola Bookstore

9. Watch a Dancing with the Stars marathon

10. Get hit in the nuts by Sarah Reback or Brett Biggs

11. Deal with a 3 hour hangover

12. Deal with a 3 hour class taught by Rockefeller

20. Think of 20 things that I’d rather do than go to work and write about it in my blog.

Scavenger Hunt

So for my final St. Louis blog post, I thought i'd let you know how good I did on my journey to get a picture of a fan of every team...

This was actually a lot harder than I imagined it would be, plus at times when I saw someone with apparel of some of the more uncommon teams, it would be at a very inconvenient time to take a picture. Well, let's see how i did..

Cardinals

Braves

Royals

Dodgers (he did roids)

Astros (hard to see but there's a hat in the middle)

Marlins

Rays (so he must have been a fan for a little over a year now...)

Red Sawks

Pirates

Holy Cow! lolz! Expos!

Yeah Baltimore!

Mets

Nationals (Yes folks, that's a Ryan Zimmerman jersey.)

Reds

Rockies

Hehe, White Sox

A's

Mariners (kid with black hat and black shirt on the left... hard to see, but its a Mariners hat)

Cubs (hat)

Phillies and Yankees (i'm told he is a Yankees fan, despite the completely neutral attire)

Not pictured but seen: Angels, Giants, Padres, Brewers, (other Phillies/Yankees fans), Twins, Tigers.

That means, I saw every team except: Diamondbacks, Blue Jays, and Indians. 27/30 ain't bad.

St. Louis Trip - More Vids

Well apparently you can't put too many videos on one blog post... Here's a few more academy award nominees, including All Star lineup intros...

- Prince wins Derby

They should not let me hold a video camera

ALL STAR VIDS

St. Louis Road Trip - The Adventures of White Akon and Mustache Boy Tell 'Em

How about some videos from the St. Louis trip, huh kids? I don't know what else could be better and make you feel like you all were actually with us... We could have smuggled you in the trunk in a overly embellished suitcase like a Mexican sneaking into the border, but that seems a little dangerous. Plus one of us already has a record. Though we thought about it...

HR DERBY VIDS!

- Prince Fielder HR Derby Rd. 1

- Ryan Howard rd 1

- Joe Mauer rd 1

- Albert Pujols Rd 1

- N Cruz finals

St. Louis Road Trip - Day 3

A picture captures a thousand words I hear, so today’s blog entry is like 150 x 1000 words…
