    Rave: Went on WebMD for the hell of it to see what the symptom checker thinks is causing a few nagging pains. First time in ages I haven't come back positive with AIDS or Lyme Disease.

    Rant: Apparently I'm having a stroke right now. Not. Cool.

    Rant: BAH!!! Fucking women. I swear to God, this is the last time I date a chick coming out of relationship. Fucking nuts they are....

    Rave: At this point, not a fucking thing. Except, maybe I am not dead. There is always that.

    Landed a new full time job today that doesn't involve sweating on the line in a kitchen or burning some asshole on the base of his neck with a sizzle platter because he refuses to move. Back in the office baby, with the benefits and paycheck to boot. As much fun as it was trying to stretch $13 in loose change over the course of two months, it'll be nice to "treat" myself to things such as rent and bills.

    Rant: One of my two roommates likes to think he runs the fucking show around here, the selfish hypocritical asshole he's turned out to be.

    Half tempted to just throw down and show him his first rodeo. Too bad his name's on the lease.

    His "i'm a pro wakeboarder & too cool for everybody" attitude is starting to boil my blood.

    Gym time.

    Rant: I fucking hate cleaning
    Rave: It's fucking over and the house is probably respectable enough that the girl coming around later won't flee in revulsion.

    Rave: Best Buy Reward Zone certificates. The only reason that I still shop at Best Buy. I love saving money on something that I was going to buy anyway.

    Rant: Fuck the moronic coworkers who decided that their huge year-end mailing jobs, a total of approximately 25,000 letters that absolutely have to be postmarked by Monday, didn't have to be brought to my attention until yesterday evening. Very considerate, you fucking cocksuckers.

    Rave: I never get to say/type cocksucker. Such a great word.

    Rave:
    Finally got with the times and bought a smart phone--an HTC Incredible. I've got some reading to do in the smart phone thread and many other places. I haven't even begun to scratch the surface of what this thing can do.

    Rave:
    Upon telling my little sister that I just got what is essentially a small computer with limitless productive possibilities, she (who owns a first-gen Motorola Droid) tells me to immediately get Angry Birds--a game that, from my understanding, involves shooting birds at other birds. Oh, the technological revolution we live in (sidenote: by tonight, I'll probably have it).

    Rant:
    This weekly dose of morning commute snow is really pissing me off. It took me two and a half hours to get into work today. Thursday morning looks to be way worse, and I wouldn't be surprised if I hear about some other bullshit coming our way next week as well.

    Rant: I'm exhausted. 4 hours of class, then 12 hours of duty with only 2 hours of sleep, followed by 4 hours of class again.

    Rant: I still don't understand Aerodynamics.

    Rave: I could sleep for 15 hours tonight. Well needed rest.

    Rave: Just got the treasure chest of gouge for all of flight school from a buddy of mine. This will help A LOT.

    Rant: I don't get paid enough to try and convince a handicap lady that she is too drunk to be driving to the casino at three in the afternoon. I'm fairly certain that she doesn't have enough control over her legs to drive sober anyway.

    Rant: Work in general. I have so much to say about this shit, but I figure if I start bitching now I will just call it quits early today and I need to put in 4 maybe 5 more hours. And I'm still classified as part time. Fuckers.

    Rant: I feel a pretty nasty soar throat coming on. Went from the slightest difficulty swallowing this morning to hurting like a bitch right now. I really don't want to get sick again.

    Rant: One of my girlfriends subordinates at work died unexpectedly from a blood clot last week. 20 years old and a single mother of a 3 month old baby. Pretty sad deal, but I didn't know the girl so it doesn't really affect me. My girlfriend wasn't close to her or anything, but I feel pretty bad for her having to deal with this and an entire team of people that were close to the girl.

    The funeral is Saturday, and like I said I didn't even know the girl so I really don't want to go. At the same time though I feel like I should suck it up, be the good boyfriend and go. Not sure what to do about that one.

    RAVE: Tonka's limp has gone down by 90%, and he's actually up and wrestling with our Corgi. Nice to see the antibiotics are working as fast as the vet said.

    RAVE: It actually warmed all the way up to 20 today, after yesterday's bullshit 12 degree high, -10 low.

    RANT: More fucking snow today, 3 inches. More fucking snow tomorrow afternoon into Thursday morning, 8 to 12 inches. My kids are going to have another snow day on Thursday. That's the 6th snow day since January 3rd.

    Apparently, according to some of yall after reading this post, my wife and I are very similar to the TV couple on "Modern Family", which I have never seen.

    I might have to after today, after this exchange just occurred:

    Wife: [Blue Dog], please rub my back for me- PLEEEEASE!
    Me: Yeah, no problem baby....... *Proceeds to rub back*
    Wife: .... Oooooo... That's nice... Arriba...
    Me: *Rubs a little faster*
    Wife: Please... Arriba...
    Me: *Rubs even faster*
    Wife: Arriba, baby! Arriba!
    Me: *Rubs as fast as I can*
    Wife: AAAARRRRRIIIIIIBAAAAAAA!!!
    Me: THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT! WHAT THE HELL DOES "ARRIBA" MEAN?!?!?
    Wife: "ARRIBA" MEANS "UP"! WHAT DEED YOU THINK IT MEAN?!
    Me: I THOUGHT IT MEANT "FASTER" 'CAUSE SPEEDY GONZALES YELLED IT ALL THE TIME!
    Wife: .............. BWWWWWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

    Rant: 3 fucking hours of microeconomics tonight. We're supposed to take 2 classes to get through chapter 2, but he's half way through and we're only an hour and a half into the first class. He gave us a break because he was getting visibly annoyed (see below). This means he'll get through the rest of the chapter fast and probably move the exam up by at least a week. I wish he'd have just stayed and kept going so we could finish earlier.

    Rant: he gave us the break because one kid, who has him last semester, isn't even TRYING to hide his contempt for the teacher. He is making constant asshole remarks, and playing on his iPod touch, clearly not paying attention or giving a fuck. This has led the teacher to rant about no one paying attention a few times, and led to him getting frustrated and needing a break. I can't figure out why the fuck that kid even came to class today, unless it was to piss off the professor and fuck us over by proxy when the professor can't get through shut so we can leave early.

    Three things:

    1) John Boehner looks like Brad Wesley from Road House.

    2) Joe Biden looks perpetually sauced.

    3) They're all so completely full of crap.

    Rant/Rave- Joe Biden always reminded me of the fun uncle type. The kind that lets you ride in the back of his truck while he goes on a beer run.

    If they want to improve ratings, BRING BACK THE WIGS


    I like how Kathy decided to tell the people next to her that Obama was talking about her.

    Rant Come on, did he really just talk about cutting taxes right after he said we're going to boost our transportation infrastructure?

    In the long run, the numbers don't lie.

    Nerdy Rant: Got assigned an internal ticket by my manager to take care of some SharePoint database shit that appeared to not have gotten fixed in our migration to SBS2008. One hour and a dismounted and re-mounted site later, I determined that the fucking site my boss said was in the wrong location was the old internal SharePoint site. Way to fucking have me waste an hour of my night, since I'm on call and am responsible for after hours work. God damn you, manager... I hate you so much.

    Rave: My fiancee that I proposed to is going to be here tomorrow from Germany for a month! Woo sexy time!
