I Didn't Even Have to Use My AK

That's a bad, likely-botched quote from... what, an old Ice Cube song? Called "It Was a Good Day" or something?

I'm bad about screwing up lyrics, and have only gotten worse in recent years.

For example, the Led Zeppelin Lyric "With a purple umbrella and a fifty-cent hat" is likely to come out something like, "Weather pumper under Abba and pissed wombat" or something. I'm serious.

And it busts me up.

I amuse myself way too much.

Good day here, mostly. The low point came when THEBOY was crying, miserable from what seemed to be a sudden onset of stomach cramps. Never barfed, never did anything but wail and moan for a while before hitting the sheets early. Checked on him a little while ago and he's fine. He even woke up long enough to drink some juice and have some goldfish.

Work-related things are afoot. Good things. Maybe even great things. Email me if you'd like specifics. If not, just wish me luck.

July 5, 2006

Couple notes:

I put some tofu in my noodle supper last night. I figured it couldn’t hurt to put about 1/3 of a pound in there in order to add some protein to my carbs.

Terrible mistake.

I mean, on the one hand, yes, it tasted okay and added some protein where previously I wouldn’t have had any.

On the other hand, I can say with all certainty that tofu, as processed by yours truly, is a perfectly viable solution should we ever become less dependent upon fossil fuels. Holy David Wells did that stuff inflate my guts. So much for that.

Today I meant to do legs, among other things. But after dropping the kids off at the daycare I came home and crashed until 1pm. I woke up feeling like Rip Van Winkle, wondering if I’d look out the window and see that my neighbors were zipping around on personal hovercrafts. No such luck.

I did have a good leg workout. I did 75 of these things called Hindu Squats.

Again, Whit’s out there having a good laugh over this. See, I’m now walking like I have a broomstick in my butt.

Tomorrow ought to be amusing.
