My dog did the nastiest thing today. While he was poop marking his territory, on the sidewalk near a light post, after the brown marbles rolled a bit, there was a nasty yellow discharge from his ass! He was pissing out his ass! I don't think it was the runs because he had a lot of solid poop. It wasn't urine either, but I suspect his anal glands were draining after pooping, but damn that was sooo disgusting. He's a white dog and I had to watch his now yellow ass walk up a hill for a block until I got back home. Once home, I gave him some water, didn't let him sit down and stuck him in the back yard until I was ready to give him a bath. NASTY!

Anyway, he needs a shave because his fur matted something terrible and it's getting spring like here. So after this week's rain storms, he's going to become the skinny dog once again. No more fur to make him look poofy and fat.

Ah, I watched Medium for the first time tonight and it wasn't bad. It was pretty decent for what's out there on TV nowadays. The way they portray the ghosts is scary, but not horror scary. I think they got the right might of creepy it's a ghost, but the ghost isn't going to try to kill Patricia Arquette. I liked how it was shot.Oh, on another note, Patricia Arquette's husband on the show is the same guy from the remake of Dawn of the Dead. He was the guy who coudln't hold down a job and was the one the main chick fell in love with. He was born in London. Weird huh?

I also watched Everwood tonight out of sheer curiousity. The annoying whiney city boy's old girlfriend/babysitter shows up in NYC the same weekend that the boy is auditioning for Juliard. She aparently got pregnant with his child and left Everwood on the advice of the boy's father. Anyway, she's going to tell him everything and I kind of hope it ruins his audtion. Not becuase I hate the character, but because I really hate the whiney boy. Another awful show I watched tonight was 7th Heaven. I didn't mean to, but I didn't want to watch the commericals during American Idol. 7th Heaven is a horrible show. It is really dumb and not worth discussing.

What is worth talking about is that MSN is now splitting up it's articles into two pages, especially on the entertainment articles. The articles themselves are very short and do not need two pages, but SMN seems to be raking in money for the extra advertising space. This is annoying to me because I don't like having to load 2 pages on my slow ass dial up service. Also it's distracting and I'm considering not reading MSN, but let's be honest, what else would I do with my time?

That about does it for now.

This is a post to gush about Hugh Laurie from the new Fox show House. So Laurie plays a badass doctor, but the catch is that Laurie is Very British. He was in the Blackadder series with Rowan Atkinson and will be in the new Superman movie, but in House, he's so American. His accent is American and very good too. I would have never guessed he was British or Hugh Laurie if I didn't see the opening credits with his name. Man, Laurie is a great actor. Robert Sean Lenord is also in the series and he has a British accent, although he's American. Anyway, from what I saw of the show, I think I like it. I won't watch it regularly, but it's a good show, better than the majority of them out there.

On another note, I love my dog. He's so cute, although he sneezes on me and I think it's on purpose. I bribed my dog to not go for a midnight walk. He thinks he's entitled to a walk, and tries to make me feel bad by sitting next to the front door waiting or laying down. Sometimes he even tries to get me to follow him and then stops at the door. He likes to look at me from the door and kind of begs with his big brown eyes. I bribed him with a new rawhide bone. He took it from me and ran to to my room and didn't give the front door a second look. He's contently chewing on it as I type. What a cutie.

Last might Druck, Ricky, and I went to an English pub to play darts. It was really fun and I wont the first game, though Ricky said I cheated. Druck won the second game and surprised us all, although I think he accidently won. He's not a great player, but he sure tries. Then we went to Jim's and talked for a long time. I missed catching up and spending time with the guys.

I think my pillow is finally breaking in, it's getting soft and less stinky :-) Happy, happy, joy, joy!

I love my dog and he comes when I call him, thus saving time because I no longer have to chase him down the street. His poop is very round though, like brown marbles, and they roll...

Well, errands must be done and I want to whack the hell out of some baseballs.

I went to British Sensations the other day and I was very disapointed. It was small and their selection was crap. Most of the food was expired (Is that legal?) and the British tourist crap they sold reminded me of all the cheap shops in London. So it was a major let down. :-(

I washed 3 cars and did detail work on 2 of them yesterday. It took me 5 hours, but I didn't mind. It had been a very long time since I washed my car, actually I have never washed it by hand... Anyway, I also cleaned my keyboard and mouse with alcohol and Q-tips. That's important, I don't want to know how dirty it was. I was on a cleaning spree. I cleaned the house and bathrooms. The dog is next. He is so cute. Today he watched me wash cars for liek 4 hours. He would sit in the garage and stare at me. I wouldn't let him out of the garage because I didn't wna tot chase him, but he didn't run away so that was good. I rewarded him with a walk around midnight... It's drity under my fingernails and that bothers me. It's blue/gray and I think I got some blisters on my feet for wearing sandals all day. We really need a hose sprinkler attachment thingie. It would have helped a lot.

Well, I need to sleep if I want to get up before noon. Oh I bought a new foam contour pillow and it seems to work ok. I'm still getting used to it and it still smells. :-P

Happy Birthday Thomas Ledvorowski!

I like The Beatles, but try as I might I can never tell who's singing, especially between John and Paul. It doesn't help that Paul has an incredible range and voice... I know some of you out there are thinking, "How can't you tell the difference between them, they're very different," and to you I say, "I'm sorry, but I just can't hear it." Now and I then I can hear it, but mostly I guess wrong. To add insult to injury, George also throws me and once in a blue moon, God Forgive, Ringo does too. :-( Anyway, a friend told me that Love songs are generally sung by Paul and John sings more ironic songs. This lack of recognition is bad. How can I like a band, but can't tell who is singing? It makes me sad.

On another sad note, Arthur Miller has died. I never read Death of a Salesman but I hear it was good.

So, during our long conversations, Lan and I have concluded that I am more of a man that most of you. I am also not a fag hag. I love cock and I don't use "non-threatening" gay men to hide from "dangerous" heterosexual men. I am also straight. I don't like breasts. Why men like them, I don't know, but I surmise it has to deal with their mothers and breast feeding. I am smart, and you dumbass Swatties who thought I wasn't, to you I say, "Go fuck yourself!" It will probably be the most action you'll get. I'm not really crazy, but I do have my own problems and I don't share that with you because it's not your business and I don't think you'd understand anyway because you're too full of yourself to think about someone else for a change. To those I trust, you have my unwavering loyalty, as long as you don't stab me in the back. I don't think you will though, because I'm a fair judge of character and if you've come this far, you're in for the ride. You know who you are because if I named you, people will get hurt and as muchas I would like to do that, it's not a nice thing. You don't often find friends like you, and words can't explain how I feel. I love you all.

Anyway, I'm not bitter because I've come to the conclusion that it's not worth the effort and time moves forward and there's not reason to dwell on the bad things. I think I'm becoming more compassionate, in my own little way, and understanding. Well, maybe not in my own personal actions, but I can understand more in the affairs of others. I am going through a separation period and I realise that this disassociation is integral to my growth as an adult. I think I'm coming out of the tunnel. I see the light. I still have no clue what I really want to do, but at this point it isn't an issue. I have 40 years to bounce around in the system and find a career. I don't believe in destiny or fate, but I think at this point in my life I am not able to realise my acutality. I think that will come with time, and if not no sweat, because I've spent enough time waiting. Life is too short to wait. I'm going to pick a direction and walk because that's the only way to get to your destination. There comes a time when you've waited long enough and you gotta hoof it by yourself. I normally would wait half an hour, not 7 months, but we learn from our mistakes. I guess my ego and pride gets in the way and accoutns for some of my inaction, but a large part of that is lack of motivation and indecision. I also like being lazy. There's a lot to be said about it. It might not be the best for my personality, I need to be kept busy. Who knows where the future will take me, but I am going to let it. Hmm, I do have a life philosophy. I'm am soo a Sagittarius.

I've spent the last couple of days reading The Dark is Rising Sequence by Susan Cooper. I am happy to report that I liked it. This series is based on the battle between Light and Dark for the fate of man. I think Cooper really loved the Arthurian legend because this tale is ripe with it. As a series is written well enough and it is a mix of C.S. Lewis and Tolkien. The first book, Over Sea, Under Stone was very good as well as the second book, The Dark is Rising, which is my favourite. The third book, Greenwitch is a very short filler book that pretty much unites the main characters from book one and two. The fourth book, The Grey King was all right, and introduced another important character. The fifth and last book, Silver on the Tree was good, but I think the ending was lacking. Granted these are young adult books, I think Susan Cooper could have added more to the finale because as it is I found it disapointing. Now I am inspired to read The Narnia Chronicles again and analyze the the crazy Christian symbols in it. I'm excited. Lan, I think you would The Dark is Rising and you, Teresa, would especially like it, unless all the inaccuracies of the books annoy you. Oh, the Cooper series also teachs you Welsh pronounciation on page 30 in The Grey King.

On another note, since one of the most commerical of holidays is upon us, here's a guide to chocloate that I found on the net.

The surest ways to figure out what's inside a piece of boxed chocolate (without taking a bite and putting it back in the box):

If there's a swirl with two loops on top, it's caramel or buttercream.

Like nuts? Look for large lumps.

Small bumps on the surface mean you'll likely find coconut.

Hard caramels are almost always square or rectangular.

Soft caramels are flat and round.

If it's wrapped in foil, odds are it has a liquid center, like cherry cordial.

Hopefully this will keep you from nibbling a chocolate and then tring to put it back because that's nasty. The trick I like to do is to eat two halves of chocloate from seperate peices and then join the remaining chocolate halves together to make a new chocolate. Note, don't try this with one dark and one milk chocolate because people tend to get wise to this really quickly.

I really should be reading the 5th Harry Potter book, but I can't seem to do it. I don't know why.

Happy February. I did have someting to post about, but I forgot. I guess I can post about Jin-Jin then. That dog is just so strange. He eats fruits and vegetables. He loves grapefruit. Grapefruit! What dog eats that?!?! Also he when he humps your leg, he does it upside down. He humps up while he's on his back. Weird dog. He's fluffy and cute as hell nad looks like the calendar dogs now, btu he won't let me brush his legs and never his feet. If I try, he growls at me, and when he's tired of being brushed in general he barks at me. He likes to play hide and seek. It's fun.

Well, it's time for lunch.

I remember what I was going to post about. Yao Ming. That guy is 7' 6" tall and ASIAN!!! So, maybe I would be more apt to believe that it happened naturally if Yao was from any other country, but he's from China, which is notorious for "cultivating" atheletes. The government "recruits" children from the age of 10 to train for gold medals. I think Yao Ming was genetically made in a lab. A super secret breeding program to make Asians taller. Seriously, how many tall Asians do you know? Yao is like the size of two Asians stacked on top of each other. Something is not right there. You can't trust China. Well, that ws about it.

A day of discoveries.

I found a shampoo and conditioner that works really well. I have dry hair, especially in the winter and I have been using Dove products, which work well, but I found that Aussie Moist products work even better. Yea! So, I've switched and will probably continue to use both Dove and Aussie, perhaps in the summer and winter, or whenever my hair gets used to it.

I also found that Nivea Restorative Hand Night Creme works really well and I'm considering getting the body creme.

Well, that's about all. Try these products, they work really well. :-)
