So, no kids....

I had kind of forgotten how nice it is when the golden children are not in the house. They are staying with their grandparents for a week or so, and man, but it's nice. My honey misses them, but I think she's getting over that...

Getting old sucks. Got a dr. appt tomorrow to have my shoulder looked at. Pretty sure it's a torn rotator cuff because I looked it up on the internet. And we all know that the internet is revolutionizing medicine (high five). Seriously, how bad does webmd and all the other medical sites where people can look up their real/imagined ailments piss off doctors? I mean, there is definitely something wrong with my shoulder, and it wouldn't surprise me to need surgery of some sort. But my honey, and a bunch of other people I know have diagnosed the wierdest shit on the webz. Must be irritating to spend approximately 1,000 years in med school only to have some nimrod with access to google tell you what's wrong and how to treat it.

I would love to post about how much work I've gotten done since my last post, and how the new house is totally cleaned up, all boxes put away, pictures hung etc.....but I would be lying out my ass. My shoulder has prevented a lot of this work, and even though I've gotten some stuff done, there is still a lot to do. Need to finish getting rid of the crap the PO (previous owners) left at the house, and get some raking/mowing/digging/trimming/cleaning gutters done.

New Jersey, actually

So, not actually New York, but New Jersey....aka New York's armpit (so I'm told). I really shouldn't judge, since I live in S. La, which has it's fair share of armpits. But, NJ is someone else's armpit, and I felt like piling on...

Honestly, I didn't see a lot of the state. Flew into Neward, stayed at a hotel out by the airport and then drove to Jersey City, at least that's the way I remember it, to do the webcast. Then back out to Neward to haul ass, thus completing my (not quite) 24 hours in the area. Next time, if there is a next time, I might have to leave some extra time and try to at least go see Central park or some such shit.

On to other rants and things though, so as not to bore the both of you who look to see new posts..

Read the SI article about Jim Tressel finally. Sorry OSU fans, but he's a sleaze. Never again let your criticissm of the SEC darken my f-ing day. Don't bother me about oversigning either and quit being so self-righteous (high fives self!). Also, if any of the watch "Robot Chicken", the robot humping the sweater if VERY amusing. If you don't watch, well, sorry. You are missing a twisted, but very funny show.

My shoulder hurts like a bitch. In fact, if it keeps this up, I may cry like one. Pretty sure I have a seriously sprained, or possibly torn rotator cuff. All I know is that it hurts. Going to try and get it looked at this week, now that things have slowed down with moving and work. Getting old sucks!

New York

So, yeah, heading to NY for the first time ever. I'm a little excited, although I think I'd be more excited if I was staying long enough to actually see something. I did the math, and I'll be in the NY area for almost exactly 24 hours. Too bad I couldn't con the people paying into paying for a couple of extra nights.....
