- When your wife gets less sleep than you did because you “had a rough night”, it’s not a good sign.
- When your first thought upon getting out of bed is “Now there’s a pain I’ve never had before”, it’s not a good sign.
- I honestly tried to be productive today, I swear I did.
- Others conspired against me, that’s all.
- It sucks to be right sometimes, you know?
- Apparently saying “This isn’t going to work” and then it not working makes me a jerk.
- Maybe asking “Is that the security conference where the guy expounded for an hour about how to survive the zombie apocalypse, or the one where half the participants spent eight hours learning how to pick padlocks?” might not have been the most “people skill” thing I could have done.
- When you come home from work and go with your wife to Walmart so that you can calm down and lower your frustration level before interacting with the family, it’s not a good sign.
- I spent my evening eating pizza and watching “The Wizard of Oz” with Boo. I found myself rooting for the flying monkeys.
- My advice to the Republicans in Congress is simply this: Go ugly, early. The President and his side of the argument will have no qualms about being insulting and untruthful. Fight fire with fire. If you’re going to take the hit for the shutdown, at least enjoy it.

/ October 1, 2013I’ve done that to my wife too. I’ve also been told in the morning “I am taking the fan and putting it on MY side of the bed, because thanks to you I was dreaming of rotten eggs all night.”
That security conference sounds like Black Hat. My brothers employers have been known to send him.
Definitely agree about the advice to Republicans, too, but they haven’t EVER had the guts to go ugly against Obama and I don’t see them starting now.

/ October 1, 2013LBC, That’s not how it went down. I woke up, smelling something like sulfur in my sleep (and upon waking). I exclaimed, “Why do I smell rotten eggs?” It was indeed at that point, however, that I did acquire the fan on my side of the bed.
