Insane Random Ramblings

I’m one of the few people that I know that actually loathes when my birthday comes up. Every year I get irritable and moody around that day. Then when people with me “Happy Birthday”, which they invariably do, I get even more irritated.

I never plan anything for that day either. I won’t go to the mall, atv riding or anything. I did want to go on vacation this year since this is kinda a “milestone” birthday. Unfortunately I waited too long to start planning everything and it got way too expensive for me to justify going. I may start saving this year for next year so I can go away for that week.

I would just rather be by myself during this time.

This has been a long week. I think it’s partly because I know that I’m going on vacation in a few weeks so I’m trying to hurry up and get there. I’ve been working on the same project at work and it’s driving me crazy. I just realized today that I have to order some information that will take almost a week to come in before I can finish the job.

At least I’ll have the next couple of days off and I won’t have to think about work.

It is so hot outside that it’s ridiculous. Yesterday was in the mid 80’s and today is going to be in the high 80’s almost 90. I did finally get my air conditioner hooked up so I’m just trying to stay in the house and keep cool. I won’t be outside trying to set up any landscape lighting or mowing the grass like our maintenance man. I know he’s feeling the heat out there. At least they do provide him with a spare work-shop type room that’s totally air conditioned.

I’m not even washing clothes until this weekend when I can get in the laundry room really early in the morning and get it out of the way. I got dehydrated earlier this summer from running around in the heat and I don’t want that to happen again. You don’t realize how hot it really is until you notice that you’re starting to drip sweat. Yuck, no thank you.

I shouldn’t complain too much because this is my favorite time of the year and I’m dreading the fact that winter will be here before we know it.

So I write a post yesterday about the games on FOX and TBS over the weekend. Mainly I just said that they seemed to be the same two teams every weekend. Well guess what changed this weekend? That’s right - the teams.

Saturday on Fox was Atlanta vs Cincinnati. A game I wasn’t particular about watching. On Sunday on TBS the game was the Yankees vs the Tampa Bay Rays. Pretty good game. But notice that not only are the teams different, it’s a totally different league!

It figures that as soon as I point something out, it changes dramatically.

On Saturday there’s a game on Fox. Then on Sunday there’s a game on TBS. They’re usually national games and when it gets close to the playoffs, they’re the playoff race games. Anyway what I noticed is that whatever 2 teams come on Fox on Saturday are the same 2 teams that you see on Sunday on TBS.

Now watch the teams and games will change now that I mentioned this.
