dirty tree hugging, in-bed-with-satan, goat-fucking-liberal but I thought the present situation regarding the U.S. military in Iraq was bad enough. You have an ill-equipped fighting force, being attacked from all sides, never really knowing who the enemy is. Not to mention the ongoing, abduction, torture and murder of non-military personnel, ie. journalists and civilian contractors, who are there doing their jobs.
Now, some of you may say that, "well no one forced them to go to Iraq to work." I'm sure in a good number of cases that's true. However, take into consideration the present state of the economy in this country and the lack of good paying jobs. If you are just starting out or maybe have a family and are tired of not having two nickles to rub together, the sign on bonuses alone are attractive enough to lure some to work in Iraq. People think they will work for a year or two and possibly, after all is said and done, come back a half a million dollars richer. It never does cross their mind that they are making exponentially more money than the civilian reconstruction specialist, doing the same work, being forced to be there by his country.
It never crosses their mind that this is not a safe nor stable region of the world. That we as Americans are viewed as evil (and in some respects I can see why) and we're intruding on holy ground. Americans going to work in Iraq are thinking of bettering their lives and their is nothing wrong with that. It's the American dream. But let's be honest, the United States military is not in Iraq on a mercy mission, Iraq has been liberated from the "great oppressor." They found his ass in a filthy hole in the ground in the middle of nowhere, yet a dude over 6feet tall, who needs dialisis, is harder to find than, "Where's Waldo."
In trying to keep up with current events in the world, one can become flustered. You kind of have to pick and choose whether or not you want to totally side with all of these watchdog sites and in turn take everything with a grain of salt. However human rights are just something I can't compromise on. I have more than a few favorite blogs, I try to check in with at least once a day, if possible.
While stoping by Matthew Good's blog this morning, I found something I can't get out of my mind and there is nothing anyone can say that will be a satisfactory excuse. This should not happen, to anyone...ever. I emplore you to read this short article and really think about who it is we have in office and if our, "total blind support" is what he and the other higher-ups really deserve.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

While I'd like...
to brag about how much I drank this weekend...while I was conquering the world...fucking twenty-something women...three at a time, I won't.
The only people who do that are those so not at home in their own skin that they have to make up a fictional life, just so they can have conversations with their friends & those fucking white hat wearing bastards, who made drinking in public so much fun. Just because a woman is conscious,does not mean she wants to be hit on by you, you Abercrombie & Bitch wearing genome experiment. Yeah, do me a favor and play, "free-bird" again, cause you can never hear that song too much.
The weekend was acceptable. I was up for most of it. I find the older I get, the more I suffer from that "first year-living at college-I have to stay up cause I might miss something" kind of thing. I don't know why, & I agree that being as old as I am, it's just recockulous. Part of me thinks all of the insomnia is due to stress over not feeling like I have accomplished anything on this rock in the moderate amount of time I have been here. After talking with several key individuals, I've found this sentiment resonates among most of my friends, who are generally in the same boat as me, but are about 5 years younger.
The "W" and I hung out some this weekend. I must be a funny bastard cause I notice whenever we get together, the guy laughs at pretty much everything that comes out of my mouth. In what I thought was a landmark move to break tradition, we stopped going to Dunkin Blownuts for coffee, and migrated down the street to the newly opened and cheaper, T-Ho's. The change in latitude was good. Hanging out in the center of town provides greater possibilities of seeing weird shit late at night. Plus there is a fucking huge inflatable coffee cup in the parking lot.
Yesterday started off slow. Being the guy that used to sleep until 6pm on a Sunday, like it was no big deal, "W" loves to now get up early and see what is going on in the world. Saturday night I went to bed pretty late, cause I was hanging out with a sweet young lady who has a love of diet soda (please read between the lines and find that what the author really means, is that he played video games, drank to much Diet Dr. Pepper and went to bed defeated & cracked o
ut on caffeine) So, when my cell phone rang at 11am on Sunday, I woke up thinking it was October and that the Germans were coming.
Luckily for me, "W" just wanted to grab some lunch at, "the blah" and as the "Dr." as that sodiferous bastard sometimes likes to be called, had forced me to shit out the lining of my stomach, I though putting something in there to soak up the remaining evil would be a good idea. Plus I wanted a tuna sandwich like, I've never wanted one before. So we lunch and then drink more coffee, cause that's what we both needed. "W" had a "red alert" of the lower-abdominal-region and we were back in the F1 and flying down the 7 like it was never going to be there again.
Not overly exciting but better than stories of me sitting around, masturbating to old grape-ape cartoons and eating mexican food.
I hope you all are well.

JJ

While I think...
it's a great idea. I mean we are way to fat as a nation, present company included, but I'm not sure that this is the way to go. For one thing, I think like anything that shows quick results, people become to involved. I have seen television programs where kids who were overweight, used DDR as an exercise program. For some it worked and worked almost too well.
Kids experiencing a moderate amount of success equate their weight loss with video games and although DDR does provide a good work out, I think we are naive in thinking this is the answer to our obesity problem. What about kids who decide to stop life beyond DDR and spend every waking moment possible on that dance pad. Let's also keep in mind teens do not always look at the effects of their actions.
Example: Johnny is over weight. Instead of sitting in his room on his computer, shoving ding-dongs down his throat and pints of ice cream up his ass, he plays DDR and experiences a drop in pounds. Happy with his initial success, he continues to play and while he is still losing weight, the pounds are not coming off as fast as he would like.
Maybe Johnny decides he is not going to eat as much. A good decision, but what he means by not as much is, he will eat only salad and water. However, Johnny decides that he can play DDR much longer if he drinks Mt. Dew instead of water. The ramifications of scenarios like this are horrible.
Now I don't think this is going to happen to anyone who decides to take up DDR as an exercise program. I just think we need to be mindful of things like addiction, nutrition counseling and repetitive stress injuries when offering the new "weight loss, quick fix."
But then again what the hell do I know? I love diet soda and lard.
I hope you all are well.

JJ

The Good Guy...
Today was not action packed by any means, but I did manage to get some stuff accomplished.
First off, I drove to the administration building at work and dropped off a check for my health insurance, since it is not covered as I am on medical leave. Afterwards, I came home and did some work around the house. Straightened here, dusted there and by the time it was finished, it was half one and I was starting to get a case of the grumbly tumbly.
I jumped on the puter to check email and such. No love in the inbox, not a hell of a surprise. As I was answering a message from a few days ago, the W called and asked if I was interested in lunch at, the stuf. I picked him up about twenty minutes later and buy 2:15, lunch was served. My wrap, the "dude ranch" was awesome. Chicken breast grilled, with bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato & a little bit of ranch dressing. W's chicken parm looked good but, if I am going to have italian, I am going to have it at an italian place.
The highlight of the meal for me was the soda. Having drastically cut down on my consumption, as in I don't buy it at the store anymore, I very much enjoyed my diet coke with real lemon. As a matter of fact, I enjoyed three of them. After lunch we stopped at the dunk for cafe con leche and shot the shit some more. W is having server issues and I pretended to know what he was talking about.
I dropped him back off at home, and when I got home, I found the postman left me some love in the form of netflix. I watched the football factory and I will be posting a review shortly but in case you are insanely curious, you can skip this one. When it was done, I put it back in it's envelope and drove it back to the post office. While out, I drone into the heart of the beast and went to the coffee exchange. 1 Cafe Mocha and 2lbs of beans later I am home and typing to you.
See I used to buy coffee at the dunk, bu their beans are not fair trade and as I'm a guy with a conscience and a responsible shopper, I usually try to buy fair trade coffee. I usually get it from scAmazon.com but as I am fucking hating them, like going to bed with a woman with a dick, right now, scAmazon will see no more of my cake until they have righted the wrong done to me.
I dropped my third and hopefully final email to them today. Wish me luck.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

So here I...
am, patient. I wait and wait and wait. Lately, most of my days have been filled with ways of trying to pass the time. Normally, I feel as though there are not enough hours in the day. Now it seems like there are too many. If I was not injured, plagued with a knee that is a source of pain like I've never experienced before, things might be better.
I might be inspired to go for a walk in the woods, to take more pictures of stupid shit, to read more books about nothing and write more shitty poetry.
My goal for today was to stay awake long enough to meet the postman. While that was no problem at all, (since I drank a whole pot of coffee,) netflix or the motherfucking postman skunked me. There was no dvd-love in this guy's mailbox. I am waiting with baited breath for my copy of, The Football Factory, a film recommended me by the guys on VGN Radio. Looks like a pretty good and gorey foreign film on soccer hooliganism. What's not to love about hooliganism?
In other news...
FUCK scAMAZON RIGHT IN THE SHIT-BUCKET!!!! In their attempt for global, retail domination, they have managed to take my trust and loyalty and throw them right out the fucking window.
Long story short, I bought a present for a friend for Christmas / Birthday and what not and the delivery got delayed...and then never showed up...and was then reordered and I was told if the other delivery was not found, I would be charged for that too. So after several heated emails with amazon customer service reps, I noticed I was already double charged for said gift.
Yeah, fuck that noise. I am about at my wits end and just want to get my friend his gift and not pay $200 for it. In the amount of time this debacle has gone on, I could have purchased the gift myself, driven it to CA and been back already.
A word to the wise. If you have a wishlist on amazon, & you have your address hidden for privacy reasons, just know that this will keep you from being able to track your orders. Helpful amazon reps will also not reveal tracking info, EVEN IF YOU CAN PROVIDE THEM WITH THE ADDRESS IT IS GOING TO. When this is all said and done, I am most likely going to try and avoid shopping with amazon, though this is probably going to be impossible since they are hosting most major online sites.
Fuck Jeff Bezos, his lackluster, less than helpful customer service dept. and his mountain of fucking money!!!
I hope you all are well.

JJ

The Ongoing Saga of...
my busted ass knee.
I went back to Sports Medicine Central on Friday. Doctor Good-guy came in and agreed progress had been made in my three week vacation from work. All of the sitting around, doing nothing, with the immobilizer from hell on, paid off. My knee looked better, less swollen at least, but was still fairly painful and as luck would have it, gave out on me as Dr. Good-guy put me through my paces.
Therefore...
Heir Doktor gave me another three week vacation and signed me up for physical therapy with the knee nazis. I look forward to building up my withered, Simon Birch-esque leg and being yelled at by women who played hockey and football in college and think I am a, "pussy" and should "just suck it up."
Yeah, so even more time to hang out and do nothing. I mean, read, blog...be productive and read books and watch movies and try not to freak out about not being able to do normal things like, not walk like a pirate.
Tonight I am heading down to the coast to hang with my parents. They are having a treadmill delivered tomorrow and as they both play mass at church on Sundays, the heathen must be there to accept the delivery at 7:30am. What the fuck? Who delivers that early? I know these clowns are not gonna show until two in the afternoon. If anything, I will get a good meal, a great nights sleep as there is no traffic at all on the island, and I will attempt to kick my moms ass at scrabble.
Wish me luck.
I hope you all are well.

Today...
tonight...
right now I have been conscious for the longest stretch in a few weeks. I think I am going on 9, maybe ten hours.
This is big considering I needed the painkillers in a muy importante way today.
I am debating what to have for dinner, but I can assure you it is going to come from Golden Crust cause their grub is tasty and thrifty, and when you are out of work and broke, bargain hunting and thrift is a necessity.
Not that I'm dead broke. I'm still getting a check even though I'm hurt, but if doc says I need surgery next friday, who knows how long I'll be on the injured reserve list?
Golden Crust delivers but I will pick up. Sorry driver, but Jackass needs the extra dinero for something.
I know once I eat, its gonna be lights out cause, well...I have been awake all fuckin' day!
Still, i received a very nice package from Naughty Michelle today, filled with rainbows, love notes and several books I have yet to read. Consciousness would help me to make a dent in those. She went through all the trouble of sending some twin-cities love to me, least I can do is finish the books toot sweet.
I still say the hardest word in the engrish language to pronounce is Pahlinuk, as in Chuck, the guy who wrote Fight Club and some other shit. When I used to work at B&N, the corporate bookstore from hell, I used to laugh as adults would shit themselves with embarrassment trying to say that name.
Followed more of Reverend Tony Pierce's advice today and downloaded some Matthew Good Band from iTunes. I was NOT disappointed! Beautiful Midnight is good in that listen & smile kinda way. I wanted to buy "In a Coma" but I'm not ready to shell out the $52 bucks scAmazon is asking. Maybe I was looking at the wrong page? It was a bit early and the cobwebs were still in effect.
Spinach Calzone w/ cheese or Roast Beef Slamwich?
I dont know...
I have been eating a ton of veggies lately. Losing some lbs and my rectum, damn near killed em' seems to be in good shape. I may just well go with the finest of lunch meats.
How are all of you? What's on your mind? Let's talk about it. Don't be shy, I have a link up top to g-mail me if you don't want people all in your business. Take the plunge.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ
P.S. I've never, ever had a boner in math class.

Wishful thinking...
I sit here...
and it's almost as late as when you and I would stay up and talk about nothing and everything at the same time.
on the red velvet couch
or
under the stars
or
in your room
and to be honest, I really have know idea who you were/are to walk into my life. to have that profound of an affect on someone amazes me. I admit sometimes it does more than that, sometimes it just fucking scares me...
shakes me to my core and makes me think more than when we would imagine countless possibilities.
and it's cold
and quiet
and ever song reminds me of you
or some thing we
did
said
talked about
and its all just bullshit
cause if I had the power to
I would travel back in time
and say everything I needed to
when it needed to be said
and then maybe things would be right
maybe we'd be ok
maybe you'd still be happy
maybe I wouldn't be used to seeing 4:00am on my clock
cause I had a dream about you so real
I woke up with tears in my eyes
cause I wanted to sleep forever
just to have five more minutes with you
and I want to hate you cause it would be so much easier...
so much easier
but whether you want to admit it or not
I love you. I always have and always will
and if by the grace of God I find someone to distract me from this lonely race, know you are not forgotten
ever
cause I'd drop everything in a minute for you
and that may
sound
weak
pathetic
or like I need help
but to bring out the best in someone is the greatest gift you can give.
and around you I didn't feel like such a misfit
and not a day goes by where I dont see your face someplace
and for that split second, I smile and its all ok
I know you probably will never see this
and if you do, it won't matter
cause we havent spoken in forever +1
and I dont even know who to blame for that
but even friends keep in touch
and so I'll remember those long nights on the red velvet couch
where we said nothing
and stared into each others eyes
and connected.
I hope you all are well.
cheers,
JJ
and it's almost as late as when you and I would stay up and talk about nothing and everything at the same time.
on the red velvet couch
or
under the stars
or
in your room
and to be honest, I really have know idea who you were/are to walk into my life. to have that profound of an affect on someone amazes me. I admit sometimes it does more than that, sometimes it just fucking scares me...
shakes me to my core and makes me think more than when we would imagine countless possibilities.
and it's cold
and quiet
and ever song reminds me of you
or some thing we
did
said
talked about
and its all just bullshit
cause if I had the power to
I would travel back in time
and say everything I needed to
when it needed to be said
and then maybe things would be right
maybe we'd be ok
maybe you'd still be happy
maybe I wouldn't be used to seeing 4:00am on my clock
cause I had a dream about you so real
I woke up with tears in my eyes
cause I wanted to sleep forever
just to have five more minutes with you
and I want to hate you cause it would be so much easier...
so much easier
but whether you want to admit it or not
I love you. I always have and always will
and if by the grace of God I find someone to distract me from this lonely race, know you are not forgotten
ever
cause I'd drop everything in a minute for you
and that may
sound
weak
pathetic
or like I need help
but to bring out the best in someone is the greatest gift you can give.
and around you I didn't feel like such a misfit
and not a day goes by where I dont see your face someplace
and for that split second, I smile and its all ok
I know you probably will never see this
and if you do, it won't matter
cause we havent spoken in forever +1
and I dont even know who to blame for that
but even friends keep in touch
and so I'll remember those long nights on the red velvet couch

and stared into each others eyes
and connected.
I hope you all are well.

Come as you are...
I’m not gonna lie. Right now, my sleep schedule is totally fucked. It’s the exact opposite of where it needs to be. However, I can take some solace in the fact I have at least, eight more days away from the Agency. I will admit I am getting a little stir-crazy sitting around the house, healing the knee (which is coming along, thanks for asking) but I don’t miss my job all that much.
Anyhow…
Lately, I have been filling my evening hours with:
watching movies
playing video games
reading blogs & books
attempting to write in my blog & otherwise
and building of my forearm muscles *wink wink*
All of these being worthwhile pursuits but, when one has a “limited window of consciousness” due to painkillers, well there is only so much a guy can do, right?
For Christmas I received the Live 8 concert on dvd. I haven’t watched the whole thing yet. Hell, I haven’t even made it through the first disc yet, but I was a little sad watching Sir Paul McCartney trying to crank out, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band. It was good but it’s always tough to watch musicians you grew up with, start to fade away. The other day, W and I were getting a sandwich and Nirvana’s, “Smells like teen spirit” came on. A nice young lady, no older than 17 working behind the counter said, “Oh, I just love this song.” I smiled a little and took comfort in the fact there are still kids today who like the rock.
Everything thing was gravy until her young, co-worker turned up her nose and said, “Eww…who is this?” and without flinching, the first girl said, “The Offspring.” It was as if all the muscles in my neck suddenly disappeared and my head hung in shame. I let out a sigh and politely corrected her, “it’s Nirvana” I said. “Nah, I don’t think so mistah” she replies.
“Trust me” I said and gave her the one-eyed wink of wonder. The wink saying, “I’m older than dirt and when I was rocking out to this song, skipping classes at junior college, you weren’t even torturing your parents with the fucking purple dinosaur yet.”
I took my lunch and sat down. W and I ate in silence, partially due to hunger, partially bathing in the realization we’re not 19 anymore and Kurt’s still gone.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

Unplugged...
I have been sitting around for the past few days, trying to come up with some cool end of the year/beginning of the year post. Let's just say I've been less than successful.
So here I sit, at 7:45 in the AM, chilling with a steaming cup of coffee, some Harry Connick, Jr. and nothing but time to write. I apologize in advance but this is gonna jump around alot. Think of it more as a, "stream of consciousness" than an actual post.
Christmas, the eve and the day went over very well. I spent Christmas Eve with broseph's girlfriend's family. Yeah, I know it seems a little weird but at certain times of the year, there just factions of my family that I can't deal with. I was going to make the drive to the coast to celebrate with mom & pop, but they were both playing masses late at night and it would have been a royal pain in the ass for everyone.
Dinner and companionship with broseph's other family was good. I supped there last year and forgot how filling the food was. As a self-proclaimed fat kid, I have been know to do some damage at the dinner table. Last year as well as this year, I had one plate and was full until ten am the next morning. Broseph's mother in law can cook, and we're not talking about hige plates either. I get angry with myself cause I am always to full to even think about dessert but as I have the big, "D" (diabetes for the uninitiated folk) it's probably not such a bad thing.
Later on in the evening, I went to exchange gifts with my friends. Age old tradtion dictates we meet at, "W's" for drinks, the exchange and some early Christmas day merriment. I think it was the first Christmas there were no, "mentally scarring" presents. In our younger days, when we had little to no $ to spend on each other, we would try to find the most outrageous/sarcastic gifts. Most of the time you'd end up with something painful but useful. As we grew older and had better jobs with better paychecks, this tradition slowly died out. However, last year, I received a book about Dick...and I ain't talking about a dude named Richard. I however vowed to take the high road and not retaliate and to this day, feel good about my decision. Someone gets you a horrible gift and you hook them up, well the look on their face is present enough for me.
Let's just say I got hooked up this year from friends and family.
Christmas day was special for several reasons. The biggest for me and I'm sure for her as well, was my mother did not have to play any masses Christmas morning and was able to get to celebrate on time with everyone else. Since I have been alive, this has never happened. It was nice to see her relaxed from not having to drive all over hell and back just to get to where she needed to be.
Breakfast at my Aunt & Uncle's was as always...off the hook. My uncle, UD for short, can cook his ASS off and as the dude needs to lose some weight, he can make the women cry in the kitchen. Besides taking care of everything that needs a responsible touch, I can see why my aunt married him. I had eggs/bacon/sausage/a homemade muffin that puts Dunkin or T-Ho's to shame/raspberry walnut french toast/ and fresh squeezed orange juice. The big "D" usually does not permit a feast of this magnatude, but that was a present to myself. The best part of the day was that we all ate, relaxed and got along...which made the fact I had to go to work @ 3pm a little easier to take.
Work sucked infected donkey rectum and I had a melange of shit to deal with that normally would have not been an issue but my job was in the x-mas spirit and provided gifts that kept on giving. It was not that big of a deal, just aggrevating. I left early and went back to my aunt & uncles for dessert and coffee and some ha-ha's. UD made a banana cake with Splenda that was recockulously good. Seriously, you would have never known that it was not the real deal.
All in all there were no complaints this year, Santa yet again screwed me on dropping off Ms. Jackass, but he did say he'd like me to try a little harder on that issue.
Last but certainly not least, my friend Boom got engaged to his beautiful & wonderful ladyfriend. Congratulations to the both of you!!!
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

Up and at em'
Sometimes it's hard being a good brother, other times it's really easy. I sit here and type this post without music as my brother snores like he is never going to sleep again. The couch has given up and has a permanent sag in it and his Red Sox fleece blanket will cover shoulders or feet but not both. Like the Red Sox teams of many years...coming up just a little short.
It's Saturday and just past 10AM and while I know it's still early for some of you out there, it would be nice if someone was up to talk. See, I normally have to get up at 6AM come hell or high water. I feel it in my best interest to stay on my work/sleep schedule while I am out of work, just cause it took me so damn long to finally get adjusted to it. In case you've never checked the time on some of my posts, I'm a bit of a night owl.
So, I'm up and one cup of coffee down. I've checked my buddy list and no one but one fruitcake in California and three Canadians, all of whom are busy, but will be right back. I won't hold my breath. It's unseasonably warm for December/January and I'm not going to complain. The fact that I don't have to traverse twinkling sheets of ice to get anywhere, gives back me some confidence having a knee in 42 kabillion pieces has taken away.
I awoke this morning with pain in my knee like there was a Rambo knife on each side. I did what anyone would do, I cried for a little bit, got up and peed for a little bit, than went downstairs, grabbed the ice bag and a handful of darvaset and hit the recliner. Two hours later, the pain is manageable and I feel a little weird. The thing with painkillers I find is, unless you get the really good stuff, they dull the pain not kill it. Granted, what I have is better than say advil, tylenol or aleve, but it's not codeine, percoset or oxycontin. Although I think dr's are a wee bit hesitant to prescribe that last one.
He has to be at work at 11. It's 10:24 and he is still on the couch, I have left coffee for him and adequate time to shower and he is wasting both. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. Sometimes it's just better to leave the horse alone and let the horse be late for work.
More later...
Cheers,
JJ

Back in Black....
I initially thought I was going to be gone forever. However, the good people at Trend Micro have developed some great anti-virus/spyware software and Carl, my computer is almost 100% back to normal. Which is more than I can say for myself.
My knee is fucked up. There is no other way to say it. I hurt it the first week of November and today on 12/29/05, I finally got someone to take me seriously. Nevermind the weeks of limping, grimacing in pain and the hundred thousand or so milligrams of ibuprofen I took. Let's not worry about the inability to sleep due to being utter agony, almost shitting out the inner lining of my stomach and not being able to take walks to keep my blood sugar at acceptable levels...let's not worry about that.
Let's just not take care of JackassJimmy cause this is a worker's comp injury. FUCK YOU DR. WALK-IN!!! After several trips to the Dr. 3 x-rays and one MRI later, I was at my wits end. I had no where to go and needed some big guns. I was talking with a friend who's mom works at the local hospital, after speaking with her she made the call to get me into a sports medicine/orthopedic surgeon.
And finally someone took my seriously. Props to EroK, Boom and Dr. L.
Now I am out of work for three weeks, could be looking at surgery, but at least someone told me there is something very wrong and that the pain I have been enduring is not just in my head. Sometimes, people do actually get hurt at work and sometimes they are not just looking for a vacation.
In other news...
Christmas has come and gone and Santa was good to me and my family. I chose to spend Christmas eve with my brother's girlfriend's family rather than my own out of not wanting to deal with the he said she said bs, although it looks as though the Hatfield and the McCoys may have come to some sort of cease fire. Hallelujah.
I'm still without a girlfriend, still jaded, and still looking at the half empty glass on the table. If this appeals to you and you like a good game of scrabble, I just got the deluxe edition for Christmas. Bring your sense of humor, vocabulary and boobs up in this motherscratcher.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

People Have Been...
asking me what I want for Christmas.
World Peace.
to hit the lottery for enough to pay off my student loans and go to college for the rest of my natural life.
Be cured of my diabetes.
In that order or any other would be fine. If I were able to be able to get up and watch the news, eat a bowl of frosted cheerios and not be depressed by the fact that everyone in the world wants to kill everyone else & that the only people who call me are the student loan people looking for money, life would be ok.
But I guess I am asking for too much.
Frosted Cheerios haven't been in the house in ten years. In that time I still have owe on my degree (which I have yet to use) and people have killed each other since the beginning og time.
So I guess I will settle for enough time off for my knee to heal correctly, some medicine to stop the fucking excruciating pain I am in and to not lose my job since I got hurt at work. Apparently going out on disability is worse than fucking a newborn pony and then blowing up a school bus full of nuns and children.
Whatever...
Nothing but savages in this town.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

So the verdict...
is in. There is nothing wrong with my knee. I am imagining all of the pain, the loss of strength in my knee/leg and the times when it just gives on me. I guess Santa is going to bring me one of these for Christmas.
It's not the right color, but it is what I've always wanted. Just one more thing to have to strap on in the morning, and something that I am sure will smell and look just wonderful during the summer months. "Hello ladies, can I interest you in a date with Colonel Jim Bargain, the $75 man?"
I'm tired of getting the fucking runaround. I am getting a second opinion on my knee and I'm going to an orthopedist. With the amount of pain I am in and for the length of time I have been limping around like an elderly pirate, someone should be able to tell me something more than, "well it's just a little swollen." No fucking shit, Sherlock. It's mine and I see it everyday. At first I thought I was going to get some time off of work, and I did, except no one told me about it. SO...I worked for another week on a busted fucking knee.
I think I am getting fist-fucked cause this is a worker's comp claim. At this point, I'm not even looking for a state-sponsored vacation, I just want the fucking pain to stop. I can't walk, stand, or even sleep without this fucking thing giving me some form of grief. Last night, while I was trying to start my holiday shopping, I though t I was going to have to call someone to get me a wheel chair so I could get out of Target. This is not something a 32 year old dude should have to deal with.
Not to mention, on the off chance Santa decides to bring me some sex for Christmas, I am fucking broken and will have to lay there like I am getting molested by Aunt Edna. I know this entry is filled with piss and is not very fun. I will try better in the AM.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,
JJ

Cold Cocked...
It was so cold tonight I wanted to kick Scott Farkus’s ass. Never the less being the fucking diehard knuckleheads my friends and I are, we gathered for a night of drinking coffee in the frozen tundra.
“W.” called and said he had a taste for booze. As I am scheduled for an MRI in the morning, I told him I couldn’t come out and play. He said he would, “be in touch.” I hung up and figured the phone would be silent for the rest of the night. No more than ten minutes later, “W.” is on the phone again.
I pick it up and before I can answer, I hear:
“Coffee…at the usual…ten minutes.”
The phone goes dead and I have my orders. I text message “W.” confirm and pull on the cold weather gear. I limp out to the F1 and fire her up. She has been idle for two days but since we have a great relationship, she starts without a fuss. I let the engine warm just long enough so it won’t explode when I put it in reverse and then pull out of the driveway. On my way to meet, “W.” it’s obvious we’re getting the first snow of the season, no one is on the road and dudes are chilling in parking lots, truck engines running, plows at the ready.
I pull into the usual and “W.” is already there. He’s already called, “Jersey Mike” and “Dirty Frenchman” so the four horsemen will convene for caffeine. We get our beverages and walk back outside so those that smoke, (everyone except me) can light up. Apparently I missed the memo on not being able to drink coffee without smoking. “W.” and Jersey light up and I mimic to bust balls…it’s what I excel at.
It’s cold but not to the point where you can’t be out. If you were dressed for it, it’s brisk at best. Jersey complains about needing fluid for his wipers and decides now is a good time to fill it. He does so, and tests it out. Fluid pours out from the underside of his car, like water into the Titanic, laughter ensues.
Dirty Frenchman or “df” for short texts me and says, “he’s busy.” Translation: it’s to cold for him. As soon as I find out “df” isn’t coming, “Soon to be dead Vinny” and “The Guy” show up. At this point Jersey Mike, “W.” and myself have moved inside. “The Guy” comes to the window and puts his hands together in a semi-diamond shape to signify we’re pussies for being inside. “W.” gets another beverage and we head back into the tundra.
Vinny shows up with a girl who looks young for him and total jailbait for the rest of us. “The Guy” asks what it’s like having old man blood and we give him the stinkeye and tell him to take it easy. We all bullshit a shorter than normal time and Jersey and “W” take off. Vinny and “cotton candy panties” have mysteriously taken off and left “The Guy” stranded. He tells me he needs a job, that he will spend tomorrow night at a winter ball with, “The Girl” and that his child is doing well. We both agree that 2/3 of those things are the shits.
Vinny and “sweatpants boner” are gone for what seems like forever. In reality it’s just over an hour. My allegiance to “The Guy” is being tested by the cold. Had Vinny not come back when he did, I might have had to leave “The Guy” hanging. Vinny tells “The Guy” that junior varsity just drove around and around and maid multiple moves on him. Vinny says he fought off all attempts but “The Guy” and I are calling bullshit. While Vinny argues his case, “The Guy’s” phone rings and it’s the hook-up. The kick is up and it is good. I get to get in the F1 and go home and “Soon to be dead Vinny and The Guy” take off to pick up an ounce of the Chron-dizzle.
Ahhhhhh…..to be young and unfettered by responsibility again.
I hope you all are well.
Cheers,

“W.” called and said he had a taste for booze. As I am scheduled for an MRI in the morning, I told him I couldn’t come out and play. He said he would, “be in touch.” I hung up and figured the phone would be silent for the rest of the night. No more than ten minutes later, “W.” is on the phone again.
I pick it up and before I can answer, I hear:
“Coffee…at the usual…ten minutes.”
The phone goes dead and I have my orders. I text message “W.” confirm and pull on the cold weather gear. I limp out to the F1 and fire her up. She has been idle for two days but since we have a great relationship, she starts without a fuss. I let the engine warm just long enough so it won’t explode when I put it in reverse and then pull out of the driveway. On my way to meet, “W.” it’s obvious we’re getting the first snow of the season, no one is on the road and dudes are chilling in parking lots, truck engines running, plows at the ready.
I pull into the usual and “W.” is already there. He’s already called, “Jersey Mike” and “Dirty Frenchman” so the four horsemen will convene for caffeine. We get our beverages and walk back outside so those that smoke, (everyone except me) can light up. Apparently I missed the memo on not being able to drink coffee without smoking. “W.” and Jersey light up and I mimic to bust balls…it’s what I excel at.
It’s cold but not to the point where you can’t be out. If you were dressed for it, it’s brisk at best. Jersey complains about needing fluid for his wipers and decides now is a good time to fill it. He does so, and tests it out. Fluid pours out from the underside of his car, like water into the Titanic, laughter ensues.
Dirty Frenchman or “df” for short texts me and says, “he’s busy.” Translation: it’s to cold for him. As soon as I find out “df” isn’t coming, “Soon to be dead Vinny” and “The Guy” show up. At this point Jersey Mike, “W.” and myself have moved inside. “The Guy” comes to the window and puts his hands together in a semi-diamond shape to signify we’re pussies for being inside. “W.” gets another beverage and we head back into the tundra.

It's a good...
thing I don't have a hammer near by, otherwise, some of my favorite shit would be broken. Carl, my computer, would probably be my first victim. I love my computer but there are some things that just drive me batshit. Being overtired is one of them.
I have listened to relaxing music, put hot water bottle on my shitty knee, listened to an hour and a half of audio book, and masturbated until I had one of those orgasms that makes your eyes cross as you have a brain spasm.
AND STILL I AM AWAKE!!!
It's fucking 6:10 in the AM and part of me feels I should just stay up. If I don't I will sleep through the better part of the day. While it is my weekend and this is not such a big deal, I hate wasting time in bed. Fucking stupid nightshift. This is the thanks I get for helping someone out. Need to go to the PC basketball game? Sure, I'll switch with you, you poison-elf, hitler-esque, american eagle wearing motherfucker.
Overtired was something invented by a total asshole. It was designed by some fucking jerk who on managed to make it into work after getting fucked in the ass all night by his wife and on top of that he has a hangover. This guys boss asked him to design a new product, and the son of a bitch came up with, "OVERTIRED." Fuck you, you lackluster, mouth breathing, armpit ring and public toilet shit-stain. Congratulations on a job well done. Now go home and blow the back of your head out with a shot gun, or blow a horse, whichever would give you less pleasure.
Sitting here typing this, I just realized if I had a glass of wine, I might be a sleep by now. However, I'm not going to try and solve my problems with some cheap table wine.
Rodeo clowns man.....
Everybody needs one of their own. I'll tell you what man, mine would be punching in for some overtime right now. No gloves, just bare-knuckle brawling and you bet your last dollar that my Scots-Irish, Angry...Thrifty...Mic ass is coming out on top.
