Why Are They All Taken?

I just found out that local hero Tom “Ain’t No Fluke” Brady is dating Tara Reid. And last week I found out my Nomar is dating that soccer chick, Mia Hamm. Is there no hope for the overweight average-looking women of the world ever dating a Boston sports hero? Adam Vinatieri is married, isn’t he? Oh, look his website says “He is currently married.” What the hell kind of statement is that? When is the expiration date on that puppy?

Forget them, I’m going back to Anthony of the Wiggles then. You can laugh all you want, at least I can say that the distance is what’s keeping us apart.

CD Burning

I’m making my own greatest hits CD. Not the greatest hits of one artist, but the greatest hits (in my opinion) into collections. Maybe I’ll call those “Now That’s What I Call Music” people and tell them I’ve got their next CD all picked out. Of course, some of the songs are twenty-five years old. But I don’t think that should matter, do you? Some of the best songs in the world are 25 years old.

I Don’t Appreciate Your Lying

I drove home from Waltham the other day, after visiting my old stomping grounds at IMI. Somewhere along the way I ended up behind this truck and I got to thinking “how can they control it?” I started thinking that it would be really hard to do that. In fact, maybe they’re just saying it’s controlled but it isn’t. So I tried to keep up with it. I am happy to tell you that it’s capable of going faster than 70mph. I don’t know what to do with that information, but there you go. (Yes, I did have my digital camera with me. That’s the joy of having a tiny one.)

Also, BIG PROPS to my mom and dad, who paid for car stereo repairs today. I now drive their old Maxima and the speakers (Bose) were blown when they gave it to me. And it only had a tape player. But you couldn’t listen to it at ALL because of the horrible electrical noises it would make when turned on. So today we got it fixed, threw in two new speakers, swapped the old stereo for the one that had been in my van, and rewired the two front speakers. All-in-all, over $300 worth of work was done. But now it works, and sounds pretty darned good. I’m going to make sure I get my $300 worth out of it. Thanks mom and dad!

Thursday

I’d better check to see if there are any good shows worth TiVoing tonight. I sort of missed that it’s the beginning of the fall TV season. Not that it matters. I didn’t see anything that jumped out at me, except maybe the Bonnie Hunt sitcom, but that’s because I love Bonnie Hunt. I got that on the TiVo the other night, so I’ll try to get to it soon.
