Just an area for what I’m doing on an everyday basis.

Lazy & Unmotivated Day

After fixating on the brain numbing projects that I had, I am totally unmotivated today.  I usually have one these type of days once every week or two, so I don’t think that is too bad.  Not like I do it all the time.

We watched Purdue Men’s Basketball win over Illinois.  Been a long time since I actually paid attention to a BB game…..since the Pacers lost it after Reggie retired and the goofy decisions Purdue made with the men’s & women’s BB teams….I actually felt a little lost.

I’m actually trying to get my gumption up to go to the store.  I have a list going and most things can wait, but the milk can’t and if I go out for that I should get everything else and not waste a trip.  I’m also not going anywhere tomorrow…….can’t miss the Packers/Giants & the Patriots/Chargers.  So odds are that I’m getting off my ass in few and heading to the store.

I’m debating on whether I want to chill out and do some reading, I haven’t done that this week, or work on a few things……like emails and messages….when I get back.  I guess I have time to decide that. =)

Time Has Flown

Damn, my brain is fried….I spent so much time in the office working on bank reconciliations for last year the last few days.  I would print out transactions from each statement time period and compare them.  It took forever, but it made it easier when I went into quickbooks to do the reconciliation.  Found a few mistakes, about 90% of them happened in July & Aug when we were packing, moving and I was working outside of the house.  All the other changes were just adjusting for the bank accounting and my accounting.  But know that I know the system, it will be much easier to maintain.

Wow, between the all that and the normal 15th bills that I take care of I totally lost track of time.  I didn’t realize that I hadn’t posted since the 10th.

Huck’s Army: Young, Eager and Evangelical 

Speaking about the need for a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between one man and one woman this week, Huckabee said, “What we need to do is to amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards rather than try to change God’s standards so it lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and how we treat the family.” 

**This is scary as hell.   James Madison, one of the main the writers of the Constitution, would be rolling in his grave.  You can also add John Adams, George Washington & Thomas Jefferson.  I so hope that Huckabee falls on his face in SC.  We don’t need some one making this country into a theocracy, just like the taliban.

Stand-Up Guy: John McCain’s Campaign Trail Comedy

**I like it when they give a little insight into the candidates.

Mitt Romney vs Glen Johnson aka Lies vs Truth 

**I love this!  Calling him out!  Can someone explain how this journalist was being unprofessional?  As far as I can tell he was actually doing his JOB!  There are so many of them that don’t………remember the bullshit we have forced to believe from Bush and lying cronies?

Estranged husband is freed, then kills wife

**This is screwed up in so many ways!

Purdue Drum

Stupid Colts

What is with the Colts when they play the Bolts? They just seem to have our number; the Chargers are 9-3 all time in the RCA dome vs Indy…. WHAT THE FUCK?????

I am actually ok with today’s loss, I said the day the Raiders made the worse trade in NFL (and in all other sports) history when they GAVE Moss to the Pats for a 4th round draft pick, that the Pats would win it all this year so I have had almost a year to prepare for this. I really wanted to see a rematch of Indy vs the Pats, but it was not meant to be.

I will not be sad to see the Pats win, they have so many good players and to see someone like Junior Seau get a ring makes me all warm and fuzzy and there are a few ‘Boilers on that team as well as the Bolts and Cowboys, but I so despise TO so I just cannot root for the ‘Boys and I would LOVE to see the Packers make the Super Bowl which I think will happen if the Giants win today.

Go Giants! (Today only)
Go Packers! (Next Week and why not for the Super Bowl as well)
Go Pats! (Do what is expected)

Fear the Colts next year… WE WILL BE BACK!

How Do I Feel?: hopeful

The future is now…. We now have Hope….

Coach Hope that is.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/ncaa/01/11/bc.fbc.purdue.tiller.ap/index.html

Purdue coach Joe Tiller will retire after next season and be replaced by new associate head coach Danny Hope.

Hope was 35-22 in five winning seasons at Eastern Kentucky. He was an offensive line coach on Tiller’s staffs at Wyoming and then Purdue, before leaving the Boilermakers after the 2001 season. In 2007, Hope led the Colonels to a 9-3 record and the Ohio Valley Conference title and was a Football Championship Subdivision Regional Coach of the Year.
_______________________

Pauline and I actually meet Coach Hope while he was still an assistant; she has met him many times when she worked near campus. We were flying to Dallas for a porn party and he sat next to us while he was on a recruiting trip. Real laid back and cool guy.

Rumors started last week that Purdue was looking at the offensive coordinator from Wisconsin and he would be the next coach, so all week long I have been thinking… what kind of team will he bring since his teams are not spread offense like Purdue has ran since 1997. Which, I couldn’t decide if that was good or bad. Purdue was the first in the Big Ten to run the spread, but we never got the real players we needed to make it work as it should. Brees was good at it, but still not the “ideal” Spread QB while someone like Tim Tebow of Florida is that kind of player…. but fuck I hate that guy.

So I think this is good. I am not sure if Tiller really wanted to retire, or if he was asked to retire, but it is time, but I just hope I don’t regret losing Tiller which will happen the first time we miss a bowl game under Hope.

How Do I Feel?: optimistic

Nothing much …….NewsFlash

I thought that I just did a blog post 2 days ago and it has actually been since Sunday.  Time kind of flew…..wacky.

I’m trying to remember what I did Monday and I’m totally blank………

Tuesday was an attempt to get some house work done and with my online work……..didn’t work as well.  But I made some progress.

Tuesday night was a horrible night for sleep for both Harold and myself.  We don’t know what happened but when we went to bed we were wide awake. Laid in bed for hours and looked at each other at 2 am and found that we were in the same boat.  It was horrible…….

So Wednesday, we didn’t try to do too much, way too out of it.  Harold caught up on some sleep, I did somewhat, but not as much as I would have liked.  Didn’t help that Reggie decided to put his nose in my face at 1am and meow at me purring.  I go to pet him and he decides he wants to bite my finger……he seems to like playing my nails.  Strange cat……..lol……but a cutie.

I use quickbooks for my accounting of receipts but there is a lot of it that I don’t use.  I discovered the reconcile part of it so I’ve been going over bank statements for this past years (because the bank always seems to be off from me) and trying to work it.  I actually got a few months done, but my brain fried on July with the $90 difference……

I have a few other things I need to catch up before I really divide back into it.

Tomorrow I’ve got to get my nails done, a week late.  Then I need to some more work done.

Richardson Ends Campaign Bid

**I’ve always liked him and his experience.  But he just doesn’t seem to have the presence for a national campaign, sadly.  I just hope that who ever gets in office (Dem, of course) that they utilize his know how.

Tiger OK with ‘lynch’ remark, but Sharpton ready for battle

**Why is when Sharpton gets involved in something I totally turn out and become a skeptic?  He becomes such a drama queen that I can’t take him serious.  Even when it is a serious issue……..which is sad….  He has marched with Martin Luther King, Jr but he doesn’t bring people together with actually dialogs like King did.  I think that is why I don’t care for him, how can this country have serious conversations and work to improving racial relations when all you do is divide people?

Caretaker Caught On Video Repeatedly Hitting Disabled Man

**How screw are people that you have to hit a helpless person?  That woman needs to been slapped & hit just like she did to them…..g.gggrrrrr
