News And Packing

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

A few mini-rants are in order here.

First, hockey is boring. It’s not coming back (actually that would give the presumption that it was ever “here.”) I don’t care if 20 million canucks watched one olympic game, after that one is done the viewers are going to drop to 20,000. Hockey sucks, period. This coming from someone that would rather watch golf or tennis. Heck, NBA basketball where defense seems to be a myth is better to watch. At least we can watch the likes of LeBron and a host of other incredible players show off. So ESPN do us all a favor and stop hyping hockey and for the love of everything hockey should NEVER have a spot in the top 10. You assholes usually plug 2-3 plays in there because of your agenda… is the NHL paying y’all for this press?

Dubai needs to stop being little bitches. Same goes for Britain. Yes, I’d be pissed if someone stole my passport and used it. If they’re just fakes then who gives a crap? There is no victim unless you count the state of the UK but let’s face it… the backroom politics will have swept it under the rug in no time anyways. Plausible deniability and all that. Spy games happen all over and it just so happens to lead back to a country (implicit or not) and now they’re covering their asses. Whatever. I don’t care for the fact that the US is supporting Israel. Let them do their own religious wars with their own money instead of us sending untold amounts of money over there. They’ll just attack our ship and deny it anyways. And Dubai is cowering for what? A Hamas idiot was killed, these people knew they were harboring an evil man. Now Israel made them look bad by getting the job done so now they’re trying to make Israel look bad. Ahhh, politics. Fucking annoying. Sack up. “Yep, we killed him, fuck you.”

Sony in all their wisdom somehow fucked up and let a little glitch take down their PS3s yesterday. How do you forget to include leap year or put it in the wrong year, whichever it was? Seriously, it’s a basic clock function. The more disturbing thing is it affecting games even in offline mode. Why is that happening? People are suggesting DRM via trophies. Sounds like bullshit but I don’t know enough about that to form a better opinion.

I shouldn’t be reading and writing. I need to get back to packing. The day is coming soon. :-)

Oh and here’s an excellent article or Q&A I guess.

I Wanted Something Better Man

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

What a rollercoaster of a day. I started off by waking up throughout the night. I took a Percocet sometime and managed to get some more sleep. Then I had to get to my doctor’s office but not before taking a careful bath and cleaning up. Something ripe was hitting my nose and I didn’t understand, the wrap on my arm didn’t really smell at all. I finally figured out it was my shirt I wore yesterday and the night before. I guess my body sweated those chemicals out because it wasn’t pleasant. So I threw those clothes into the wash and then washed my sheets right after. Yuck.

Some nasty ass snow storm is blowing all across the US and of course we get dumped on. I fucking hate the cold and I hate the snow. Fuck this shit. I get to the appointment where I get to wait around for 50 minutes when I am literally the ONLY patient in the fucking waiting room. What the hell? I couldn’t believe no one was there, usually it is pretty packed. They cut the dressing off and we talk and go over the stuff, pretty normal. I get a scrip for physical therapy which I go over and do. Now with this storm blowing in I guess most of the PT staff decided to vacate. Whatever. I had to fill out a long ass sheet with one arm and wait some more. Finally a therapist saw me and we took a good hour. She had some students she was teaching so I didn’t mind since I was bored. Granted, I wanted to get home and take some meds and eat but it could wait. Most of this stuff was review for me since I did this two years ago but I thought it was fun having the kids watch and learn.

The drive home wasn’t so pleasant. The roads were shit and the drivers were worse. I just took it slow, I ain’t in no rush and I have one arm. Fuck getting into a wreck. I had to turn off my radio, my thoughts were wandering. They still are. I took a pain pill and now I’m euphoric. I’m about to give my exercises another go. I can’t stop thinking and I don’t know if it’s a side effect or just me but I’m sad. I can’t shake this feeling. I so desperately want to talk to her but I can’t.

Here’s what’s bothering me as well: some idiot goes nuts and shoots up a place in St. Louis. Do us all a favor and throw yourself off a goddamned cliff instead of taking others with you, you selfish piece of shit. Another thing: fuck this extra security at airports. If a terrorist gets through and blows shit up oh well. It’s bound to happen again no matter what precautions we take. You’re letting the terrorists win with all this extra shit. If my plane got hijacked I’m going after the goatfucker. If he blows us up well I guess that was my time to die. No need to make everyone suffer. This nanny state is getting too large. The past few days have had airports shutdown due to someone walking in the wrong way or a suspicious fucking ornament… are you serious? Good game, we now have a piece of plastic shutting down an entire airport. Way to show them terrorists! I’d touch on healthcare but I’m damned tired of typing and thinking.

I’m going to go sulk.
