Dropped passes are killing us again, but we do have the lead houston gets the ball if we can hold them I think we can run it out and get the victory. Mike Vick has a touchdown pass, he has over 150 yards passing 34 yards rushing.
For my wife the fact that Lesean Mccoy has two TD's in the first half and akers has 2 field goals is doing great for her fantasy team. Unfortunately her opponent has Desean Jackson on his team so basically he may help to even the score up so she hopes Mccoy does all the scoring.
Oh well hopefully we can hold them on D in the second half. But this is looking like a long game

The remnants of this mornings carnage
Today in my case it was sushi, I had to drop my mom her phone so I stopped by Lee's fresh sushi and deli to see what he had up. Yes Sharky's is just down the street, but Lee's is $5.99 for a basic premade container and I didn't have time to wait on sharky's for double that price THOUGH for a larger selection. I got a container of crawfish(crawfish doesn't really have that strong a flavor) and Shrimp tempura. Some who know me might be surprised, no BBQ eel, I know it was hard it was staring me right in the face but I wanted to try the crawfish. So I left my staple eel to its own designs. One never knows when they will find a new favorite so I gave it a shot, like I said I tasted everything else but the crawfish was too subtle. I like the way the eel has bite to it.
It made me think how much I would love to go to Japan and just chill for like a month and experience the culture. I have travelled many places in these united states but I have yet to cross a border. Not that I really had too many places I wanted to go, I mean being African American my "old country" is pretty much down here in the deep south where the trail gets murky.
There isn't really a "place of my ancestors" where I can definitively say yes I am standing in the land of my forefathers and am walking along trails they once did. Basically it starts with the ship and comes forward, hasn't stopped me from appreciating that which has come before me, just leaves my "wish I had gone" places list short of a completing the "circle" destination.
I mean I guess I could pic one of the coastal Sub Saharan areas and be like "motherland to my ancestors I am home" but its not the same as actually gong back.
Anyway(that tangeant wasn't preplanned I ramble and go with the thoughts take me sometimes) yeah Japan, Rome, Egypt, parts of england and maybe some parts of south america. I'm a sci fi/fantasy fanatic, a lot of those themes have played out in those areas. I'm sure the italians and the greeks are tired of us american tourists constantly visiting those grand marble monuments to a history long past.
Its great for tourism but I'm sure it clogs the street. But those testaments to human ingenuity in the past. Now no this will not go into the metaphysical. I do not care what you believe, how you believe or what came first. Those who came before found ways to build great structures that have lasted Millenia, let's go credit where credit is due and appreciate the fruits of determination.
Wouldn't mind seeing the highlands of Scotland or the plains of Ireland either. Maybe London, but FIRST it would be Japan. Okay work must be done let's stop the Rambley and get to it

Life goes on
This is gonna be hilarious, writing one desktop and then flipping over her to write this one.
My wife asked me today what was wrong, there is a lot of things wrong just at the moment nothing I can do about them. My vacation plans are smashed which means no anniversary, birthday or new years with her. Extreme downer after experiencing them all again for the first time in years. To say I felt a little holiday magic was and understatement. We danced when the ball dropped(well the peach in GA), we kissed, we were in each others arms couldn't be beat. We went out to dinner together on our anniversary like we hadn't done in 3 years. If I had an 09 memory that topped all others it was the end of the year with my wife. It was a moment that for a while seem lost to the distant past, maybe I was kinda greedy last year and soaked up more than my fair share of holiday cheer and am payin back the deficit this year. If so I may be sour but I wouldn't trade christmas 09 in for anything, its what priceless moments are made of. So a few uncertain days and perpetual boredom may suck but it doesn't suck as much as last year was awesome.
I'm kind of run down, we've been running a lot of hours and miles at work so I wouldn't mind the downtime vacation would have offered. The money went to a good cause and while I have a few untapped outlets I said last year would be the last time I sold a good performer for quick cash(that being ford). So monetarily I can't afford to go on vacation anyway. I'll probably have to take a few days around christmas but it won't be the 3 weeks with my wife. That's hard to beat, don't care who ya are 3 weeks with the woman you love, sleepin in her arms every night, sharing simple moments unforced just living.
There are a few items, baubles, pittances I wanted but again things happen, money gets spent, plans get changed. You deal and you move on, I mean what am I supposed to do just sit still and wallow in self pity(I mean yes that is an option but its soooo 1985)? What's that gonna change, yes the days are running together and I could tell you the day and not the date, but so what? I'll get a break soon and when I do I will restart my brain in a manner that is more productive(look at my blog last month talk about therapeutic), so why wallow, why focus on one point in the present and stay there? What good will that do me, will it make my dreams come true? Will it make magic appear in front of me? No, then let's keep moving forward and get on to the next thing.
2 days til "the warrior's way", so I'm psyched about that, I was researching phones to see what my new one will be, I'm gonna do it I'm flushing the Curve and getting the new Bold. At first I wasn't liking parts of it, I mean the screen space is the same but its always looked blocky to me, but that 5 mega pixel camera screams awesome to me. Plus it has 3g capabilities, so better and faster surfing. I'll snap pix of it when I get it and post it on the blog. It also has that new "optical" pad instead of the scroll wheel, which you know I like my wheel but maybe that will be better, its not the torch(which I heard has bugs but the large screen PLUS the qwerty is drool worthy, mmmmm porn, what 0_o!? Like I'm the only one who'd watch porn on it, filthy hypocrits) but hey its better than this craptastic wonder I'm using now. I mean my original one with the bad "wheel" was love when I got it but this one has been nothing but a headache.
Aiight I got cleaning to do so I'm bedding this one running to the other one and I'll catch ya later

Another snoozer
Today was another laid back day in the world of Mr. Data. I ran into some new malware/spyware something that basically ate someones camera system. Funny thing is this one won't allow me to scan it, the scan keeps breaking down, I've tried to run a scan on it 3 times now, next option is the portable cd-rom drive after that WIPEOLA, yup it's late the scan itself would have taken anyway from 7-14 hours(depends on how I set it up), but since it has now crashed 3 straight times a reload will take about 2(if the boss approves). I mean I see ALL the data that is supposed to be there already on the puter, it's probably got a secondary hard drive so I could erase probably the main hard drives worth of info and move the guys data over. Again this is a talk to the boss moment if the scan doesn't work it already seems like this thing wants to get extra as far as the fighting is concerned.
My baby bro just got his new phone so he is running around checking it's features and being mildly annoying, but who cares a new toy is a new toy, we all act somewhat childish once we get our grubby little fingers on our new gadget. On black ops(yeah yeah blog STILL to be completed but hell now I have more info) I have hit PRESTIGE 1, which means I can now run through and re level up and re earn all my goodies, which is kind of annoying but then again I skipped it last game why not try it this one, I'll earn a little more dough but a few more items and them run out and do what I do, granted once I do it a few things will be lost:My beloved crossbow(sniff sniff), my nova gas, my beloved aug, and my shotgun. Granted of all the things I am losing(the rest of the stuff can be bought back once I get the money for it) the shotgun I think is like 5 or 6 levels in so it ain that terrible. It's just the principle of not having my favorite customs anymore.
Oh well off to cleaning and to editing the blog I did while walking

I'm not a complete grinch
I mean look at most christmas albums all USUALLY remakes of some song somebody else made a classic. Maybe you do it right, maybe you commit a travesty to music but rarely is it something new.
Now not with "christmas lights"(I know its more than lights but that's what I call them) that's almost always something personal, people can buy the same lights or decorations but set them up completely differently from each other.
Back in south jersey there used to be a guy who basically created "Christmas Village" man this place it was like all those old moving puppet style christmas specials. He used to have the chasing lights, he'd have singing lights, dancing characters, waterfalls, frosted trees. I mean he used to have this donation box and I would always put my extra change in there. It used to be my special christmas time, pre birthday treat when we lived in jersey. I heard he had to sell that house when I was in my 20's but I thank him for the memories he gave every child that went there.
Even that last year he admitted the expense but I heard he said it was just something he loved to do, that the smalls on our faces brought him so much joy. I had often wished to share that experience with children of my own(except I did not have children before he sold it nor do I have any now, but it was a fond wish). I hope somebody else has blogged about christmas village or posted pictures of it. Because this time of year that's what it should be about simple things you can share with family. The memories of our trips to christmas village has outlasted all the toys I ever got in those years, all the comics, all the clothes, and cards.
I mean every year the subtle changes he would make, the bigger the spectacle. I swear even as a young teen my eyes would grow wide because it would be that 0_0 moment. The I didn't expect that, or I can't believe he was able to pull that off.
Now no RARELY does everyone pull off a christmas village, but even the folks who do the Transiberian Orchestra Dancing lights, or other Musically Choreagraphed offerings it always makes me happy that I share a birthday with this time of year. These type of moments and visuals stay with you for a lifetime

In a somewhat pissed off mood
You have to love people, because they THINK they are right they run off at the mouth forgetting who got them where they are. They forget that if you look at the scale what they take is much heavier than what they give. People become so wrapped up in their righteous indignation of "why you have to listen to me" that they don't listen to themselves.
When you get to a point where you have challenged someone and it has reached a show and prove point, don't get mad show and prove. Its okay to feel strongly about something, no problem being passionate, but once you call someone out if they tell you to step up do so. And the funny thing is its always something minor, people go off on things that in the grand scheme aren't as important as the bridge they are tossung gasoline on. But hey "you know" right I mean you can blow up because in the end you got this and nobody can question you on having this.
Part of the problem is my fault I know, I give off this teddy bear like demeanor. I'm friendly, I'm cooperative, I'm consoling so that means when you run off at the mouth I'm just supposed to let it go. I mean hell I don't even have claws anyway right, and they filed my death down long ago. Except, if you look closely the claws are still there, the teeth razor sharp. The kindness and understanding I showed was not due to being castrated but due to being kind and understanding.
Sometimes I may agree with you, sometimes I may see that your side has merit, or is while imperfect definitely deserving of more than just immediate dismissal. Here's the thing, if I'm actually taking the time to listen it means that blowing me off loses for you an ally when you might need one in a coming situation. If I'm willing to spend my time in ways that helps you giving me the "what have you done for me lately" speech or the "well you only had to do this > < much" line will convince me that oh, you got it next time cool.
Because I do have better things to be doing then busting my hump for other people. This may not be the "me" of the 90's but even if in one spot I can find plenty to do. Things is, if you kept finding yourself asking me didn't that mean that your other outlets were slim to none. Doesn't that mean that you actually need me, hey I've rounded into a nice couch potato why should I move for you?
I mean I did it before because I thought it was appreciated now, nah son I'm good, you do you. That drink I've been missing downing it, Gotta go Gotta go, cya. See I've been grown a long time, I understand FULLY the world I live in. I've been to the rodea, the dance, the line, and the big stage. So I already know what I do and don't like, you're still trying to figure it out. But its cool you ain gotta ride with the side car, I'll step out and we can take it off. I thought you'd like the help but hit that sunset. You don't need me it might be time to start seeing what I need, and my needs are pretty simple, they just don't leave much time for your wants

And just when it looks like a dull and dreary day
I got wrapped up in work so I really couldn't do this blog like I wanted to earlier. It was just one of those days, starts out slow and I'm not doing anything ends in a rush. We're just leaving the smoke shop now, so its a late night for me, no I'm not fond of late nights because I still get stuck with early mornings. Blows Donkey balls, but hey I'm grown I gotta do what I gotta do.
Still a wet night luckily its monday not friday not in a movie mood so I won't get soaked. I can take the caddy to wally word later for wifey so that her playonline is okay. I want to get into Final Fantasy XIV but I'd need a new PC. Desktop laptop don't matter, either way I want something THIS generation PC wise. Call me a gaming snob, but why be on the sucky computer if you don't have to be?
But that's something far off, I know I started rambling but hey I said from the start I'm rambly. So its not like I didn't warn you, and from my bounce rate I see many of you have decided to jump off quickly, whoops this guy is a loon let me get up out of here. (I mean some of yall bug out in less than 10 seconds that's a miracle, I never leave without reading a page or two unless its a gay/femdom porn site then its "aw hell naw" *click*)
For those who have stay around and enjoy my craziness thank you from the bottom of my heart 700 hits last month and damn near 2000 over. Google analytics may not count all of you but if you are here you are welcome(until you piss me off)
