Being your place on the web to make Pat feel all warm and snuggly... or just a place to type random text... ANYTHING to get those badgers, mushrooms and African snakes out of my head!

Must I stop at ten? 

Welcome to the most popular blog meme this side of Personality Tests...

Ten Things I've Done that You Probably Haven't

1. Made a batch of beer literally flavored with arm hair, bottled it and handed it out to friends.

2. Combined Wiz War and Risk... successfully.

3. Held three consecituve, anual parties where drunken excess was not only expected and achieved, but also happily met with a mop, carpet cleaning machine, and the requisite overnight vigil to make sure no one choked to death.

4. Let my 3-year-old daughter go out on the roof of my house to help me light firecrackers on "so-called" millenium night (Dec. 31, 1999) so that she would have something singularly unforgettable to give her an indisputable memory of the turn of the century for when she's good and old.

5. Caused the Northridge earthquake (okay, granted... there are 3 others out there who can boast of the same exact feat).

6. Created not one, not two, but THREE separate decks of sexually explicit cards geared for specific role-playing games.

7. Was the editor of "Spage Gamer" magazine.

8. Been told I look like Rick Overton... by Rick Overton.

9. Hidden something in every single piece of art, design or layout that I have ever created. (Okay, nearly every one. I mean, I'm not risking my career over it nowadays or anything.)

10. Been fired from the Mine Ride at Knott's Berry Farm for "sexually innapropriate language used during ride operation". What did I do? I said "Watch out for naked miners up ahead!" when the stupid train passed a pair of fake longjohns in the waterfall chamber before it goes up that first hill near the middle of the ride. Seriously. That's what they fired me for.

Sick 

I've had a nasty cough and sore throat for 5 days now, so I am officially sick.

I've also been listening to Michael Moore's "Dude, Where's My Country?", remembering all the crap that went on over the last few years. Now I am angry AND sick. And sick of this administration. Sick, angry and sick.

Plus my cell phone stopped working for no apparent reason, so I am angry that too. Sick, angry, sick and angry.

And peeved cause I was stuck at work til 10pm and missed out on celebrating St. Patty's by drinking Guinness at the ImprovOlympic with the people and the funny and the cheap beer.

Must think of bright side... There's a party tomorrow. My softball team finally won a game (without me). My daughter's current favorite game happens to be one of my favorites -- that always rocks (Agora , by Cheapass Games; she also loves Carcassonne... yea!).

Okay, now I can go cough myself off to sleep... fitful, angry, man-sleep!
Grrrrrrrrrrr.
