From my brain to my blog

Time for a personal update. No zombies or gore, I promise.

So this has been a pretty frustrating week on all fronts- work, personal, professional. Everything and everyone just sucks this week. So leave me alone.

Tuesday night was the annual viewing of the Charlie Brown Christmas Special. Gelo came over and watched it with me. I was thinking about writing a blog on it, but you know, the Christmas special is just so wonderful and so well done, I don't think it's even fair to poke fun at it just for the sake of doing so. I will just leave it at that I watched it, and as always I enjoyed it.



It was somewhere between "Hark The Herald Angels Sing" and today that the rest of the week went to shit. Today sucked the worst. Icy slush, maddeningly frustrating bosses and relationship issues that I really don't want to get into. The night wasn't a total wash though. I made the best of it at the private function I had to DJ and wound up having a nice time, getting paid cash and meeting some nice people who managed to get me pretty drunk. The bright spot of the day was getting home at 2 in the morning tonight and finding a big box on my kitchen table of my UNFLAVORED Whey Protein Isolate, courtesy of the good folks at Nutrabio.com.



Basically you can mix the powder with everything from water to oatmeal. It's flavorless. Stupid me, of course, decided that it would be great idea to mix it with Coke Zero (it was, after all, the only beverage in my fridge). Note to self, carbonated beverage and protein do not mix well. After narrowly avoiding what looked like a science experiment gone awry, I was happy to note that the concoction was actually drinkable and the aftertaste made the Coke taste like slightly stale Coke, not vomit. I think it will go down better with something like my Haiwaiian Punch Light (yes there is such a thing and yes it tastes exactly the same). I'm so happy that the brightest spot in my day is a 5 lb bucket of powder. But it will make me strong and muscular.

Speaking of strong and muscular, you can add lean to that list. All of a sudden I've become a cardio freak and I'm determined not to be such a fat fuck anymore. Not that I'm fat, I'm just less than perfect. And I hate that. I've also noticed that my body has gotten too big for my head. I think I have some sort of self perception problem. I should stop. Body image issues. Something like that. I am so going to see a shrink.

So yeah, this weekend better not suck. Because enough has sucked today. Notice how prolific I am when left to my own devices.

More to come later...
