1) Sheesh – the monthly email is coming either at the end of this week or sometime next week, so quit harassing me about it. I haven’t forgotten about it, but there are some technical issues that Site Guy Brendan and I (read: Site Guy Brendan) have to work out. Apparently, you can’t just bcc a few thousand people. Who knew, right? So thank you for signing up in droves and far exceeding our expectations. Seriously.
2) I forgot to wear a belt today. Do you know how ridiculous a grown man in work clothes looks without a belt? Absolutely retarded.
Not only do I look ridiculous, but it’s very noticeable. I’ve seen three co-workers today look at me, do a double-take, and immediately notice my beltlessness. I’ve since tried to untuck my shirt a bunch to cover up my belt area, but now I just look like a slob (without a belt).
It’s a shame too, as I thought I was looking pretty good today, wearing my nice wool pants and Brooks Brothers shirt and shiny shoes (I always try to dress nicely when I return to work from a weekend of drowning myself in beer). Oh well. I don’t even know why I try anymore.
3) I am currently in first place in my NCAA pool at work. There are over 100 people in it, and I sit alone at the top. Awesome. The only bad thing is that this pool has a $1 entry fee. I am in four other pools, each for significantly more money, and am not winning. Not even close, actually. Great. (Last year, I finished second in the work pool and won a whopping $1).
4) I just learned this morning that I was plagiarized by a radio station in Atlanta last May. Apparently, it was like a big week-long controversy too, with the guy who plagiarized my blog eventually apologizing for it. I had absolutely no idea this was happening, but if any of you recall this or can provide any additional info, that would be good. The radio station in question was the Q100.5 Morning Show, specifically someone named Jeff. Again, no clue about this and this could all be incorrect, but I’m looking for answers here.
5) I’m clinging to life today after this weekend, and so will try to get you another post later but can’t promise that. I’m sorry, but if you love me, you’ll forgive me.
