Ok, So it appears I have been slacking off on this blog lately. My bad, sometimes I get busy and don't have time, sometimes I get lazy and say "I'll post tomorrow". Other times, I simply forget. I will let you be the judge of which it was.
So Maybe what I will do is just "brief" you on some tings that have a happened lately...
In the World:
Pope Benedict XVI decides "Pope-ing" is not for him and announces his retirement. This sends the world into a spiral and was ultimately the cause of the destruction of the planet... Ohh wait, never mind. That's from the script I am writing. "Pope's From Outter Space".
What really happened, was people were shocked that the sitting pope would do such a thing. Apparently Popes like to stay in office until rigor mortis sets in. Benedict was the first Pope to just up and quit in over 600 years. That's a long ass time to say "all the popes before you died in order to get out..." And so the world started to make predictions on the next Pope, and in probably the least decent thing you could do in the situation, Vegas drew odds on it... Yes, you could actually bet on the next Pope. I lost. Over the next few weeks the Vatican went all "Election Stile" and Cardinals were nominated to be [supreme ruler of church] Is that what it's called? In the end the newest Pope was chosen: Pope Francis from Argentina. And apparently this dude is changing everything from hats to chairs.. I like it. Lets put big screen TV's in church so we can watch the games too...
Is that Gollum?
Winter Storm Nemo drops about 3 feet of snow on New England and generations threaten to kill each other over the dumbest thing ever. "whose storm was bigger" Generation X is excited to say "This is the biggest storm I have ever seen!!" And the Wet Blankets that the Baby boomers are had to get all pretentious and say "that's nothing compared to the blizzard of 78!" My uncle Kevin would call them "toppers" because they need to top your story. Well guess what Kevin, you happen to be a topper in this story simply by being born in the stone age (sorry). The only thing that separates 78' from 2013 is the advancement of technology. So yeah, you had it worse, but I don't care so shut up.
A meteorite blasts it's way into Russia, and Russians think "not a bad day" so yeah, that happened.
In my World:
Jenn is still Pregnant but VERY close to having the baby and we are getting really excited. Everything that needs to be done before a baby comes is done, the room is put together, the pack n' play is set up, the high chair is set up, the swing is set up, the car seat is good to go... We're ready! Now we just need a baby to put in there. Of course saying you are ready means nothing, because everyone tells me "yeah you say you are ready but you are not". So that's good.
The baby has pretty much taken up all the news worthy things in my life, but here is a quick list of some others. My windshield is broken, my commute still sucks, I get to slap my brother in the face as hard as I want, my laptop died, my March Madness bracket is getting pummeled, baseball starts soon, Still don't follow hockey, professional basketball sucks, started watching "The Newsroom" it's awesome, and finally I am 2 lbs lighter than I was when I made my last post.... good for me.
Thank you again Aaron Sorkin
That's all for now.
