Sorry, another week

Another week, more time passes.

More wins for our varsity (knocking off #1 Pasadena Poly in their pool and visiting San Marcos); more heartbreaking losses for Kyle's JV (one pointers to both those teams). Another Bruin loss... jeez, how demoralizing. [but that Trojie defeat last night? it wasn't 59-0 or anything, but they've got to be hanging their heads in shame... and the injury to that thug, Rey Maualuga... well, karma's a bitch, baby... headhunter, thug, "owner" of the LAPD, asshole... really, it couldn't happen to a nicer guy.... er, dirtier player]

Where was I? Oh, yeah. Sickness and injury.

Injury?

While at the Pasadena Poly game, I tried to applaud with my note-taking pencil still in my right hand... and jammed it into my palm. They tried to dig out the lead last Friday at Urgent Care (my doc being gone on Fridays) to no avail, and they gave me a tetanus shot and some antibiotics in case of infection. A week later and it looks like it's still there... and there's a slight ring of white around it... I'll probably go back later this afternoon. And that antibiotic? I think it's given me massive nausea (I barely got out of bed on Wednesday, and today it's baaaaack) and pretty bad constipation (I know, TMI... but you getting verbal diarrhea right now, so deal with it).

Work's been a bear. And life has been stressful... our bank is in the news this morning... largest bank failure in US history. Great.

No wonder I can't sleep at night.

Tomorrow's another Bruin game... sigh.

Am I rambling? Sure, but not as bad as this:

" . . . where it is the taxpayers looking to bail out. But ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the healthcare reform that is needed to help shore up our economy. Um, helping, oh -- it's got to be all about job creation too. Shoring up our economy, and putting it back on the right track. So healthcare reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions, and tax relief for Americans, and trade, we've got to see trade as opportunity, not as a competitive, um, scary thing, but 1 in 5 jobs being created in the trade sector today. We've got to look at that as more opportunity. All of those things under the umbrella of job creation. This bailout is a part of that."

That, my friends, could be our next President... if the old man is elected and he should (God help us all) kick the proverbial bucket... scary.

Guess Letterman thinks the Palin/McCain ticket is scary, or anger-inducing, too...
