“Dimes x Douches”
I saw this book at work the other day. My job is great. We were actually using it for something relative to work and not just laughing at the plethora of Douche bag references and sub-categories. Hey, you with the cool clothes and zero personality! Yeah, you Anonymous you! Pick it up and find yourself in more than a few pages! HA!

“The Casket Store”
Sometimes when you walk places that you usually drive you see things that you’d usually miss if you were watching the road, or bb’ing and driving at the same time. Last Sunday I thought it’d be cool to walk to the grocery store, and on my way I saw this sign. Apparently after you eat at Mandarin you can head straight through the kitchen and find a casket that’s just the right size and finish for you! Perfect!

“Thumbs Up.. er, sideways”
Big shout out and a thumbs up goes to my homey K Boogz, who had the presence of mind to think, “Hey, I’d better get a fucking picture of my hand before a doctor comes along and fucks everything up!” Kudos my dude. Kudos.

“Dingers”
There’s a couple things I love about living on Lakeshore. The second of the two is shit like this, (NO bay day). I found this this morning as I walked towards the streetcar. Somebody obviously purchased this piece of “hardware” and thought they’d be slick and throw out the evidence in a garbage dump behind one of the restaurants in the back of my apartment. They couldn’t get the dumpster top open and decided to just dash the packaging onto the ground and make a run for it! Hi-Larry-Us! For all my underage readers, this is the package for a karaoke microphone you can use for Singstar OR RockBand!

If you are American and on my blog, I beg you to watch this video. Please. Not on-my-knees type begging. I mean two palms up, shoulders shrugged, brows furrowed type begging.

Video c/o Maya.

Today marks the official 2 week mark since my last drink. It really hasn’t been that difficult, and I feel that the main reason is staying busy. Keep yourself gunning for improvement in all aspects of your life and you’ll find yourself increasingly aggravated with the things that generally pull you down.

I weighed 182 lbs on September 17th, and weighed myself at 173.2 lbs this morning, for a drop of 8.8 lbs. 8 more pounds to go and I’ve got exactly 60 more days to do it. And this is strictly from a change of diet and the implementation of relatively easy exercise. I still haven’t done ANY cardio – I haven’t practiced yet because of my schedule at work, and I haven’t worked out any more than my 100 push-ups and crunches on a daily basis. I’ve lost a lot of beer weight though. I’m far less bloated and weighty from water weight. So I’m thinking the next 8 lbs is going to be a little more difficult. We’ll see.

Regardless, I’m feelin’ real, real good right now yo.
