All I did yesterday was sleep. I felt like shit and I needed get some work done. Needless to say, NOTHING got accomplished. I am SO pissed off. I hate it when you become sick. I needed some airborne mo freakers.

Tonight, Brian and I went to East Peoria and Pekin. We went to Blake’s to record the final podcast of the season. Yes… We got fuckin lost… AGAIN! We got to Blakes’ and hung out for a couple minutes. They both gave me shit about the podcast, but I know it will get out on time. We ended up leaving around 10pm to hang out with Jared.

We got to Jareds’ and found out he was already gone to the bar. We met up with him and drank a couple. I could tell that Brian wanted to go home. He looked VERY out of it. We left Jareds’ aropund 1am and got back in 50 minutes. Overall it was a good time. I need to finish this podcast soon.

Tomorrow, Brian and I are going to visit Blake in East Peoria for the Season Finale podcast. I am pumped and sad. The good news is I will continue the podcast through out the off season. If you have not checked out our Fantasy Podcast, please goto http://podcast.86productions.com/ to check it out!

Lazy Monday.

So the last days, I have done nothing… It seems like I am getting more lazy EVERYDAY… I used to be ALWAYS doing things. I think since I stopped “smoking” 3 times a week, I have not been motivated. Could pot make someone focus more? I know it does. I just wish I could get the hook up again. Someone who grew their shit in the basement and used it for their personal usage. I had one guy who… Yeah… Let’s just leave it at that. It is not like people ACTUALLY read my friggin’ blog.

I feel really bad for Heather, because she is doing ALL THE WORK. And I see her do it and do nothing. I am working out and stretching every morning now, but I do not think that is messing up my motivation. I think because I gained a bunch of weight in six months might have something to do with it too. I do not know. I just want to be happy with my wife and make her VERY HAPPY!!!

I finished putting my desk together last night around 10:45pm. I put one piece on backwards. I thought it was going to take 2 hours to fix this mistake… Nope! It took about 25 minutes instead. I was happy to see the desk erect!

I then decided to play a game of Halo, since Heather was sleeping. I Pwn3d every n00b in those games. I rocked the house out with my dong out.

I just found this AWESOME program called WinDVR 3.0 . I am not usually a fan of TV Tuner software, but this could be a MythTV killer. I am not sure yet, but I have been messing with it for a few days now. Check it out fuckers!

I was up until 1am putting together the desk we bought. I think I fucked up a part, but I will not know until tomorrow. I am still tired and I am going to take a nap… Nite; Nite.

I love it when my wife and I are off. It is nice… Just think about that for a minute… Ahhhhhhh, there you go. LaaaaaaaaaaaaaTE fuckers.

Tonight the Chicago Bears lost to Carolina. I am going to drink myself until I puke and then start over again. I knew they were going to lose… I just did not want to believe it. Time to play some Madden and then Halo 2. It is a sad day for all Chicago fans.

After dealing with my stupid phone for the last 2 months, I was sick of it. I called around the last few days about certain phones. I really wanted to get the Treo 650, but it did not have windows mobile or flash. I saw the price tag was $300-$500. Fuck that… I would not pay that much for a phone. I looked around the internet and found two rebates: $200 and $50. The only problem I had was the rebate ended today. I decided to make the trip to Peoria,IL and get the phone and shit. Not only did our plan go down, but I got the phone at the price I wanted. Granted, I had to put up a good chunk of cash, but I will receive the rebates in 4 weeks.

I really like the phone so far, I just would not want to be known as the gadget guy. In the last 9 months, I got a Laptop, iPod Nano, iPod Video, and Treo 650. I also bought Heather a car and we bought a couch and a desk. Now, we only spent $350, but it seems like much, much more. Here is how much everything has cost me/us:

Laptop – $0.00 [was $1450, but I paid it off with a car loan…]
iPod Nano – $65.00 [We got the shuffle, but wanted an upgrade]
iPod Video – $0.00 [Thank You for winning Week 16 in Pick ’em]
Treo 650 – $73.00 [I got $250 in Rebates]
2000 Jeep – $13,500 [$303.15 for 48 months; this includes my laptop and all of my debts]
Couch – $165 [We got a gift certificate from our wedding]
Desk – $145 [I have been putting this off for 3 years. It needed to get done]

So the only real thing I bought recently was the 2000 Jeep. Heather needed a car and I was able to pay off all my debts. DEBT FREE, except for the car loan. As you see, I really have not been spending LOTS of cash. Some is just luck and some is just cheap! Now if I bought a $3000 LCD TV, I would HOPE my friends would be like, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING??? I wish I could buy a TV, but I know that will not happen for another 3 years.
