Good morning everyone. Welcome back to the work week for those of you that had the weekend off.
Yesterday after work I vegged like a man that deserved it. First I made some pasta with tuna and brewed some tomato sauce with onion and mushrooms and peas and spices. The sauce wasn’t as fantastic as it could have been… but next time I’ll have an idea of what I want to do to play with it.
After dinner I crashed on the floor to watch some TV with pillows under my head. The MLB Network has a show this season called The Pen where they have a camera crew following the Phillies relief pitchers and documenting the season from their perspective. It’s a pretty cool show for a guy like me who can’t get enough of everything baseball.
After it ended I watched Chris Rock: Kill The Messenger on TMN and laughed along while I checked the Twitter feed and sent some texts from the BB. I was tempted to put in the Evening With Kevin Smith 2 discs after Chris Rock, but I opted for disc 5 of Veronica Mars season 1. And wouldn’t you know it, my timing was perfect in that as the 2nd episode ended I was able to switch the feed back to TMN see the episode of Entourage. The boys are back, as the ads will tell you, and the season looks to be in full swing. After the episode ended I hit play on the V. Mars again and watched that til the end of the disc.
In between I got to chit chat with E-ve and rehash our days and her night out with old friends and other such things that make me smile when I’m chatting with her.
It’s Mommy Z’s birthday today. It’s easy to remember the 2 birthdays because they are the day after each other. I’ll give her a call later. Remind me if you have the chance.
It’s the last day of the month which means that it’s the last day that I’ve paid rent for the old apartment. There is one more load of things to be pulled out of there and then I’m done. It won’t be pretty and I may be there for a few hours trying to get things cleaned up, but I’ll try not to leave too big of a mess. The way I figure it though, I don’t owe that landlord anything. He never did anything for me, ever…
This eating breakfast before leaving for work thing could turn into an awesome trend. Big thanks to E-ve for turning me onto the idea. I know it’s not ground breaking, but it’s a tough thing to talk me into changing my morning routine.
Weekend box office numbers are in. The Final Destination finished in the top spot with Inglorious Basterds coming in second and Halloween 2 rounding out the top 3. No big surprises I guess, but it does seem kind of early for 2 horror/ slasher flicks to end up in the top 3.
2 mornings in a row I have woken up a little chilly thanks to the turn in the weather. I think it may be time to officially call the end of summer here. I’m not looking forward to bigger blankets quite yet. I was just getting used to being comfortable instead of crazy hot and sweaty in my sleep.
Congrats to the kids from California as they knocked off Chinese Taipei to win the Little League World Series yesterday. It would have been the 18th title for Chinese Taipei, but they’ll have to wait another year. Now we just wait to see if there is any crazy controversy upcoming with ages and such.
And thoughts and prayers go out to the people in B.C. and California and every where else that is being hit with forest fires right out. Thanks and prayers and praise goes out to the firefighters who are braver than I ever dream of being.
With that we’ll call it a day for now.
Like wham!
