when was this?

whenever, the week that was unfolds somewhat backwards as i catch up in somewhat random order as the events of the real come to mind and pop into these entries with new environmental distractions in the form of at least a dozen new tv stations thanks to the new and improved digital converter box, but what about the rest of the real?...

yeah, well, so there was the pigging out and the thursday night softball that i watched because the coach wanted the other guy to pitch and they lost big time to a team that had not won a game yet, but that's the way that team is and i just show up and play when i am asked to play, not really feeling part of a team but rather use it as practice for my real teams, two of which one championships in 2009, as i've mentioned here or there... meanwhile more personally important softball news for this week besides the great and odd (odd week, remember?) tournament is that my left wrist really started hurting and i believe there may be a tendonitis inflammation flair up that will interfere with batting and possible fielding as well, alas)...

and there was the tech suckage thanks to microsoft (sucks) and att (sucks) and sun java (sucks) which keeps trying to update over and over (as does adobe too) because the tech giants do not make their software compatible so nothing works well (have i mentioned how much vista sucks lately?) and are we (as a species) really as stupid as we are?...

as if to prove the point, apparently tabon's is the british equivolent of golden corral or shoneys or duffs or whatever your local all-you-can-eat stuff your face meat and potatoes and pasta and all sorts of fattening stick-to-your-ribs foods might be called... and the justification for the waste of resources and unhealthy eating is the complaint about how the economy is bad and how tough it is to make ends meet and cheap filling comfort food helps and yet, the obvious visual huh? (besides the long-standing ridiculously questionable dentistry, or absence, thereof) is that almost all of the people are very obese which means they are eating way more than they need to eat which means they are spending way more than they need to spend which means they are doing the usual human ignorant self-destructive self-fulfilling failure patterns that is so typically human, alas, can i go home now?...

and just think, i took three days extra off this week just to celebrate the holiday and never did... more yesterday, written later, hope you enjoy the journey...
