Getting Out of The Funk . . .

One hour and fifty minutes past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM) . . .

Well, I was in a bit of a depression the last couple of weeks, and I'm coming out of it. Strangely, the motivation to go to jury duty this Tuesday may have been part of what helped me.

Oh, and this funny commercial helped; the end not only reveals the product, but is a great payoff!:

Lazy Recovery . . .

Two hours and twenty minutes past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM) . . .

After a rather messy week, a messy weekend, and a messy Monday, today turned out surprisingly good.

Not much more to say about today . . .

Facebook: Good Riddance

I kept hearing about it; I heard it started in Yale, or Harvard, or one of the big colleges; so I figure, maybe I should try Facebook.

Well, I end up finding my posts are tightly limited; I find lots of "networking" with either people I already know, or people I once knew and could not care less about; I find lots of inane requests of bizarre games; basically one big, waste, of, time.

Anyway, last night, I finally cut my losses, and deactivated my account. Oh, and a great "they're really that stupid" moment: hours after an e-mail confirmation of my account deactivation, an e-mail reminding me of "Facebook Birthdays," and links to sends "gifts," or post on "walls." Utter, morons.

In other news, my left ear's infected again, as it was just after Comic-Con. Early treatment has it in flux, so I'm not sure if it'll intensify or fade away. Either way, I won't let it affect my walking.

Messy Messy . . .

One hour and forty minutes past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM).

Not much to say; a lot of missed opportunities, a few to many obligations that popped up, too many f'ups on my part. The best I can say is that I can see things working well if I fall into line. The catching up continues.

Oh yeah, my Tweets.

So Much for "Groove" . . .

Three hours past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM) . . .

So, it's been a month; well, I try to catch up, and that takes up time.

Anyway, not much to talk about here . . .

Oh, and yes, I'm aware of what happened eight years ago, quite an intense day for me and way too many people. An eventful week this year as well, but I'm just not in the mood to write about it here; mostly I just have no time, there's a lot I'd love to talk about; maybe next week.

Quickly: I keep thinking I have diabetes, maybe pancreatic cancer, maybe something in between, maybe both; oh well. "After Sports"; following the lives of athletes after they retire; I keep thinking of Bernie Williams (Baseball ------> Jazz Musician), Magic Johnson (Basketball ---------> Businessman), and Lenny Dykstra (Baseball --------> Investor/Investment Advisor).

Gettin' Back in the Groove . . .

Two and a half hours past Ideal Time (out of the shower by 8 AM).

Still recovering from the big cons, though this feels like the week where things really return to normal.

Honestly, not that much more to say, as I still have some major internet catching up to do. That big TV list is coming, along with the others, and a few more updates to that movie list.
