Last night I played pool, and brought my shitty mood with me. I was so excited to get home and take some kind of asprin, advil, 3/4 hole saw bit to the skull... anything to get rid of my headache, and there was nothing. I contemplated a kitchen knife to dig out the painful part of my brain but I couldn't even find that! I woke up this morning... and what do you know... still have a headache. I ran into work this morning and moved in to what I sometimes call "The Hangover Cabinet". This morning it was strictly medicinal. Pain-Aid to the rescue. Finally after 15 hours with a headache it seems to have subsided. Take that, brain...
I played pool last night against a girl who was completely awful. I should have won bigger than I did but I was really stumbling through the first game. It shouldn't have lasted as long as it did, and to be honest I was a little pissed off at myself for letting it go on. I just couldn't get it right during the first game. Oh well, I ended up winning 13-7, and our team won big. We were in 6th place last night, but gained 80 points. Depending on how we do next week we could be playoff bound. That would be fun. We might not play very well, and we might not bring A+ level pool etiquette to the game but we're a charismatic group of jerks, and I think we have a pretty good time. I can see myself doing this again in the summer. I like the people I play with, and I like knowing that I have sometime to do on Thursdays.
I didn't get the Swine Flu yesterday. I also didn't get the fallout bunker set up. We installed additional locks on the doors, and bought cupcake mix and DVDs. We're close to being ready for the Swine Flu Zombie Apocalypse. Just a few more clutch items and I think we'll be in business.
Today should be ok. I got a bunch of work done in the past few days, and it sets me up for a timely departure from this decrepit hellhole today. Just 7 more hours of sitting in the basement by myself and it'll be Friday time. I haven't talked to anyone about possible plans for the evening, but if it were up to me there would be the following:
1) Happy hour
2) A game of pool or two
3) Something awesome for dinner
4) Fall asleep watching terrible TV
The following is a list of things I don't want to do tonight:
1) Be alone
2) Not get the Swine Flu
Well, I'm gonna let this all go for the time being. Hopefully I can be in a better mood today, because I feel like I was a really anti-social miserable piece of shit yesterday. The best days are the days when someone says "What's wrong?" and the only response you have is "I don't know". Coffee is settling everything this morning, and NOFX's acoustic version of "My Orphan Year" could probably make me cry right now. Preparation for the inevitable is a really terrifying prospect, and you can never prepare yourself for total destruction, and the rearrangement of your life. Have fun out there in the blogosphere, I'll be basementing, and hopefully having a nice day... do the same... after all, it is Friday. I hear that not enjoying a Friday is the first sign of the Swine Flu. That and developing a short curly tail, and rolling around in as much crap as you can muster up. Swine Flu. What's next? Good gravy...
