Pain is Temporary, Quitting is Permanent...

G'day mates,

Just came back from a doozy of a get together with a few friends at a place called Tortilla Flats on Queen St. There were about 9 of us and great time was had by all (at least it appeared that way!). It was good to see the crew get together for the first time in a bit and chillax.

So let's sort out the mess of what's been goin' on this week....

- Cousin from my Dad's side just got engaged. Which is so cool. The one part of that family that I can say I'm proud to be related to. Now if only I could find a way to salvage enough dough to get airfare to go to the Land of the Pure.

- Friend and foe alike are reading the blog. I won't drop names, but I should let all know that I DO have a statTracker which records each and every page load by anyone on my blog. Sufficed to say I've noticed a few lurkers who I'm surprised to see reading - or still reading for that matter - my comings and goings. It's all good, I ain't mad at ya, perhaps a bit ired at a few though...

- World Cup begins in T-Minus 12 hours. The teams I've decided to root for...France, Holland, Iran. I'll solidify the team I like after watching them all play a game. This I plan on doing homework on the next few days...If only Pakistan could make a Football World Cup! Can you imagine how crazy I'd be?

- I'm still getting the odd communique with my former acquaintance who seems to be using me for a certain perk I enjoy (nothing like that silly!). I'm thining of a nice way to cut this person off. Any ideas? I'm thinking of a Dave Chappelle like crazy rant!

- My bachelor life clock seems to be ticking. My Mom seriously looks more and more like she wants me betrothed ASAP. I'm thinking this might be the time to introduce her to any friends of mine who bat for the other team. While it would be a hilarious situation, it just might kill her!

- Apparently I would be fully able to pull off wearing a Rocawear jacket. If that's true and none of you would laugh at the sight of this, let me know. I just might have to go the route of H-to-the-Izzo if that's the case!

- All my life both us brothers have been told we look alike. Today I had 3 people say to the contrary. As I said to them, as long as the good looking one is ME, I'm content :P

Alright, I'm bouncing. I'm reading a good book on the politics of baseball and HAVE to get through a chapter for once without falling asleep. It's not that it's a bad book, I'm just always reading it when I'm half asleep! Anyways, to all my cats and dawgs I'll talk to you l8er!
