This from CNN: Mercedes’ Fish-Inspired Car

Two words: Holy shit.

Those of you who know me also know of a particular thoery I espouse in regards to weekends and Mondays.

Typically, when I have a good weekend, history reflects that I pay for it with an equally bad Monday. If my weekend is so-so, Monday isn’t so bad. It’s been a while since I’ve had a particularly bad weekend, so I can’t fill in the blank there.

Well, Christmas was pretty good, the day-after party was better, and the rest of my time off from work was pretty quiet and relaxing for the most part.

This morning I rolled into work to discover, as the wife was driving away with the car, that I have only two cigarettes.

. . .

It’s already begun.

This morning, at its outset, looked like it was going to be a routine Friday.

I walked in, took off my boots and hung up my coat. I got my workstation running, and then went to the kitchenette to see about coffee. You know, filters, grinds, get a pitcher of water from the cooler, that sort of thing.

That was about when Friday started looking a whole lot like a Monday.

To filch, or not to filch.  Sometimes, the right choice is not the sweet one.

I did both a good thing and a bad thing this evening.

The good thing was that I walked 3 or 4 miles (round-trip) to my favorite restaurant for dinner. Hello, excercise. I even brought the wife with me!

The bad thing was that, after eating a plate of pasta, I had a hot fudge sundae.

So, while I’m working on this big long rant about the real meaning of heaven and hell for all 4 of my fans to read, I’m feeling very sleepy.

Today sucked my ass.

Today’s my birthday.

I’m not normally the sort of person who walks around reminding people that he’s got a birthday’s coming up, but I figured I could say it here.

I was driving home from an after-work ST meeting with my fellow ninjas, and as I often do during late-night drives I was listening to Coast to Coast AM. The topic of discussion, RFID chips and how we’ll all be forced to have one in order to live and work in America, gave me some great material for a blog post.

Then, when I arrived home at 2:30am in the morning, I made the mistake of checking out my favorite forum in the universe, Eris’ Bar and Grill.

By the time I remembered I was going to write a new entry, it took me 5 minutes of staring at the screen to remember that it had “something” to do with RFID chips.

By the time it all came back to me, I was too tired to care.

That is all.

This is just a list of things I’d like to get done sometime in the next 100 years.

1. Wish Ma a happy.
2. Resume disagreement with Ben and Mary over the inclusion of materials about homosexuals in public school textbooks.
3. Find articles about Mexican military incursions on our southern border for disagreement about our border security telling the Mexican government where the Minutemen are.
4. Pick up some butane for that nifty knife-looking lighter Mary gifted me with.
5. Buy the next winning Mega Millions lotto ticket.
6. Get some sleep.
