Well ... I suffered through a long hot weekend ... right now, as I enjoy sitting in my office building, it is 92 outside, but feels like 106 ! I hate the dew point ! I hate humidity ! URGH ! That is how the weekend went ... lucky for me I have central air at home ... but I pity those poor bastards 20 miles away who were without power for 20 hours on Saturday ! The hottest damn day and a squirrel was playing with the transformer, causing it to blow ! I pity them !

Someone brought cake to work today ! Damn them ! Cake ! Well, I had a piece, and it made me feel better.

I am getting my hair highlighted tonight ... something for me, for once.

Update: MG - I think I have convinced him it's not a good idea to come here. I told him I cannot take any time off of work to spend with him and he would be alone all day, fending for himself. He had the nerve to ask me if I would at least do the shopping for him and make him lunch before I go to work ... I don't even make the ds cold lunch for school, why would it be any different for you ? I then advised him of my upcoming trip, and he said it's a waste to come all that way for only a week or 2 and then have to leave, unless I will let him stay at my house while I am gone.

ARE YOU NUTS ???? ARE YOU CRAZY ???? No, you are not staying at my house while I am gone for a week, by yourself. I couldn't trust you to keep it in your pants before, and now you want me to give you an opportunity to invite women into my home while I am gone ????

What is wrong with people ? What has the world come to ? There was a time when I would have trusted someone to stay in my home while I was gone ... but that doesn't happen anymore ... I haven't been burned, per say ... but I have heard bad stories from friends who let someone housesit ... and I just can't deal with that.

sorry ... this is a frustrated ranting of sorts.

- Sick -

Well, I am getting a visitor, I think. MG is coming to town. I am scared of him, in a way that is hard to explain. I am afraid that if I don't give him what he wants or do what he wants, he will punish me, not physically, but he will make my life hell. He is good at that. I like this guy ... except when he gets mean.

Well, I am still going off to Boston in a month. We are counting down to game day, right peoples ? 38 days ! WOW ! I am so thrilled. As I type this, we are sitting at 916 hours until game time ! (I know, I think it's a sickness to know this !)

Otherwise, life is dull. Been keeping busy - am going to the movies tomorrow, am going to see "The Devil Wears Prada" with some friends. We are going to have dinner ... and some, uh ... drinks ?!

Well, we have an All Star Game to watch tonight ... GOOD LUCK AMERICAN LEAGUE ! And EXTRA good luck to the Red Sox boys !

- Hangover from Hell -

I am sick. I have a hangover. That is what happens when you party on a Monday & a Tuesday on a early week holiday from work. I want to crawl in a hole, and bury myself. My head is pounding. My stomach is churning. I am burping up Rum. Please, make the headache go away.

Happy Birthday to my beautiful son ! I love you ! Enjoy your youth. Enjoy yourself. Being a kid doesn't last forever, and you deserve so much. I am so blessed to have a child like you ... I really am ... You are my everything. You made me into who I am today.
