I want to thank everyone who commented on my last post. I definitely have a lot to think about on how to proceed.

I’ve not really got anything new to talk about, but thought in the sprit of Sorted I’d report about the weekend.

Halloween was a non-event, as always. It has never been a holiday that I’ve been a fan of, like ALL holidays. (I know, revoke my gay card!) I worked at the tattoo shop that night then went over to my Buddy’s for a drink and went home. Exciting.

Saturday night some friends invited me to see a band I had never heard before—Bonepony. Incredible. They’ve been around for a long time, but have never been in the spotlight that I could find. I’d have a hard time narrowing down their sound, but it’s a mix of rock, country, bluegrass and folk. I had a great time and ended up buying some of their CDs—probably one of the better music purchases I’ve made in a long time. Go find them on iTunes or in another venue and give them a listen. And a big thank you to Goose and Leah for inviting me to see them.

I’ve been ill since Sunday. Feels like the flu, but seems to have passed rather quickly. I’m feeling somewhat better at the moment. Not sure what it was, but it was rather unpleasant. Hopefully I’ll sleep through the night tonight and be able to go to work tomorrow.

Let’s hope this week doesn’t leave me feeling like this:

Actually, I’d like to feel like this every now and then.

LOLcat attempt at 2001

Well, I think it’s funny….

It has been a long week and now the weekend is over. I have been sick since we returned from Dallas. Today is the first day I have remotely felt better. Remotely. Whatever I caught has kicked the crap out of me (not literally, for the most part).

Oh, and I miss my buddy…

Erik and Eric

He is dealing with some heavy things right now. I just want him to know I’m here for him.

I seem to have mostly gotten over whatever it was that was getting me ill. Still coughing a little here and there, but for the most part I am good to go. I even went drinking with my buddy Thursday night after playing poker for a few hours. We stayed out drinking until about 2:30 in the morning and I was really tired the next day at work. Hell—I may have still been burning alcohol at that point. I think I may have made my body so uninhabitable that the illness fled in horror?

Looks like I have a busy day today at work—a couple of appointments at the tattoo shop and then any walk-ins as well. That should keep me out of trouble for the most part.

In other news: why is this so sexy?

I feel even worse today than I did yesterday. All my mucous membranes seem to be oozing, well, stuff. And I won’t even get into what’s coming out my backside…

I am home today. Sick. I am mostly laying on the couch. Mostly. I feel like what I imagine the inside of a porta-potty after a two-week stint on a construction site must be like.

I have decided we need a more comfortable couch for relaxing on.

Maybe I will watch some porn to see if that makes me feel better.
