One step for man... One giant...... I HAVE A DREAM! [Jul. 12th, 2009|03:50 pm]
[music |Chris Farley]

Young man, I'm gonna twist off your head
and spike it onto the floors of a nightmare you can't even imagine!
I will dance with you inside the six-sided ring of fire,
unless you move from this area, far and fast, NOW!



Black sheep is on and i'm cleaning the house. Oh joy.

Wet pee hugs [Jul. 11th, 2009|10:50 am]
Game day was yesterday, probably played the worst game of diplomacy in my life. I kind of wasn't in the mood to play anyways.

This year continues to be the worst year possible, but it's laura's business to talk about.

I'm up to 4 stars out of 7 on super mario RPG, so i'll probably be done with that tomorrow. It's a shame Nintendo never used Geno outside of SMRPG, because he was definitely sweeter than some of the other characters they chose for other mario related games (mario kart, party, sports games).

Not to sure what i'm going to do game wise after that. I've actually been thinking about starting San Andres again for PS2. I never beat it. If i find my original Xbox anytime soon i might break that out and have some people over to play Steel Battalion. (mmmm over 40 buttons) Yeah, i own that.

Laura has been wanting to rearrange the furniture for a while. unfortunately she decided that yesterday while i was gone for a few hours that was going to be the time she would start doing it. The main problem being, she moved about half then quit. As of right now about 15% of our living room floor is visible. The rest is covered in: Torn magazines or newspaper ads (joey's new favorite thing to do is tear paper), clothes, joey's toys, and displaced furniture. We should have this resolved by later tonight.

Laura is DJing Taylor days from noon - 6pm today. If anyone is interested in going up there, i might be swinging up there with joey later. Most of today is going to be spent at my mom's, getting stuff ready for a yard sale, the rest will be putting the house together.


Oh yes, the subject line. Joey soaked through his diaper last night, so this morning i got wet pee hugs. Being a dad is awesome. Time to feed my little peebody.

Welcome to Wal Mart, i love you. [Jul. 7th, 2009|01:30 pm]
Filled out my wal mart app. Hopefully that goes well/quickly.

I have my probation hearing tomorrow, also hope that goes well.

My back is better already. Joey hasn't slept with us the past two nights, i think that helped immensely.

I beat kirby's adventure yesterday for NES. I think i might start Super Mario RPG today.

Joey's cute. His cloths are all orange and he looks like a little prisoner. I might set him up behind his baby gates and take a few pictures.

Laura is 21 years old finally. She's going to fort street brewery after 9. I'm going to stay home and babysit. I'll write a nice mushy birthday appropriate post later. Now i'm going to play with joey because he's running my feet over with his toy lawn mower.

Oh shit, i think i broke my back. Where's the wheel chair? I'M OLD SCHOOL! [Jul. 5th, 2009|09:40 pm]
[mood | in pain]
[music |lagwagon - falling apart]

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i'm old.

I threw out my back today. To summarize: Joey hasn't been sleeping well at night, so he's been sleeping with laura and i. When he gets in bed, he constantly rolls on my side to the point where i'm half hanging, borderline falling off the bed. So that's been about the past 2 weeks for wear and tear. I've had general back pain, but nothing serious.

Until this morning, i picked up joey while laying on my side and i felt it tweak, and it became immediately hard to breathe. I take him down stairs and feed him breakfast, laying on the couch watching cartoons. At this point i'm feeling somewhat okay, the inital pain is gone. Nap time rolls around so i was going to take joey back upstairs to sleep with laura and i pick him up, tweak my back again. Now i'm making weird noises, struggling to breathe and doing my best to get comfortable. I wake laura up and get her to take joey, and i pretty much just layed in bed for 3 hours until i felt able to move.

I lucked out in a way, it's my mid-upper back, not lower. So i'm still mobile and able to lift things (joey). I'm just stuck shallow breathing, laying on hard surfaces, and getting a random stab of pain which makes me yell out in an, OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA type noise. So that was that.

Chrissy and jon came over and we played gloom . It's a pretty fun card game. The object is to make your family as miserable as possible and then kill them. Jon brought over civilization (apparently there is a board game) and i was looking forward to playing that. However due to the presence of a 1 year old in batman PJ's, playing board games with a lot of pieces is quite impossible. So maybe we'll play at game day.

We we're going to go to allen park fireworks, but fuck that. Everyone is tired and burned out from yesterday.

I'm thinking about going to 7-11 and buying an ass ton of snack food. I'm on my period or something.

Edit: Allen park days fireworks were right outside our house. We just stood in our front lawn and watched them with perfect clarity. So tonight worked out.

Now to eat cookies and ice cream and watch cartoons/random movie.

A reason why baseball still kind of sucks. [Jul. 4th, 2009|01:22 am]
The tigers game went 16 innings.

SIX TEEN

Jesus fucking christ. That's like 5 1/2 hours of baseball.

They had a 6 run lead, 7 - 1 in the 3rd.
Then Minnesota came back in the 4th inning.

then 12 innings later we finally won 11 to 9.

Jesus christ.

Both teams almost ran out of pitches.

ROM down. [Jul. 1st, 2009|10:45 pm]
[Tags|]

Beat my first ROM finally.

Actraiser for Snes.

It's like an action/sim game. Quite literally. When you first enter a new land you have to go throw a level, then fight a boss. Then after that's done you switch to a naked angel thing and have to develop the land to create more followers. Then you fight a 2nd boss. Then you finish maxing out your population (because population = exp).

Then repeat 6 times.

It's an alright game. Well, it's kept me in front of the computer for the past 7 hours.

I'm gonna eat dinner now.

I snuck my computer and internet through my ass. [Jul. 1st, 2009|03:38 pm]

[mood | amused]

Court went as good as it's going too.

Funny story, my mom knew the prosecuting attorney. Do you know from where?

The bar. It was lulz tastic. She's like "I don't remember his name, but he drinks johnny walker red only and get's shit faced all the time." So having an alcoholic DA was a plus.

I got my charge bumped down to Operating while visibly impaired (Even though 30% of me was made up entirely of jim beam). Which, is the lesser of the 2. I'm going to get 4 points, a restricted license for 30 days, a valid permit for 90, then i can get my license back after 90 days. I'm going to owe around 600$ in court fee's and probation. I'll probably be on probation for 6 months and have to report to do breathalyzers once or twice a week. I'll have to go to AA for that duration. I'd estimate around 40+ hours of community service (which i can hopefully serve at the library), and i'm 99% sure no jail time.

~Highlights of court today~
1.) The black kid in court for assult charges wearing a giant ass barak obama t-shirt. That was lulzy.
2.) 2 people there (not together) both got retail fraud for stealing from TJ Maxx.
3.) Two rednecks got into a fight. After the guy got sentenced the other party jumped up and said "I'M MR. MAGS AND I WANT MY DENTURES REPLACED!", he then pulled out his teeth in front of the judge and proceeded to talk about how fucked up his dentures are and he needs them replaced.
4.) Judge Courtwright was actually really really cool.

~Lowlights of court~
1.) I had to fart the entire time i was in court and was terrified of tearing ass when i got up.
2.) I had terrible cotton mouth for most of the duration
3.) Judge Courtwrights long winded speeches he gave to every minor about BLAH BLAH BLAH HIGH SCHOOL IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN YOUR LIFE BLAH BLAH BLAH bullshit. High school doesn't mean shit, everyone out of high school knows this.
4.) The two old black guys who sat behind me (whom, i don't think were even there for court related business) commenting to each other on EVERY CASE. It didn't help the fact that they both talked like Chef's Dad. It was a highlight after court where-in i proceeded to do impersonations of them for about a half hour while filling out my probation papers)

That's about it. I go next week to meet my probation officer and the week after that i get my official sentencing.

Overall i'm very optimistic. I've learned an important lesson and will never drive drunk again. I'll never be shitfaced in public again, and overall will change my okcupid "how often do you drink" status from "frequently/often" to "very rarely".

I've also decided to just make up shit in AA, because AA is a joke for intelligent people who don't say "WHUELLL GOD MUST OF WANTED ME TO BEE COME AND ALKEEHALLIC SO I CULD LARN TO APPREECEEATE LIFE!" (Granted, i'm sure AA works for people, and AA is a stand alone organization, they give people a place to go too and welcome everyone with open arms. So they do deserve a lot of credit. I just dislike their "We're not a religious organization but we constantly pray and incorporate god into more than half of our rules" hypocrisy.)
((If anyone wants to go to AA with me you're welcome too. All the coffee you can drink and all the cigarette smoke you can breathe. We could even make up stories together.))

Also: While filling out the probation papers i noticed that anyone i know would be considered an alcoholic. They had questions like:
Do you enjoy a drink every once in a while?
Have you ever drank in the morning?
Have you ever drank and then had problems remembering the events of the night before?
Have you ever had a drink to get rid of a hang over or to stop tremors?
Does anyone in your family also drink?

I was laughing when i read over the questions, the quiz makes you feel like the biggest drunk in the world. Oh well. I'm an extremely lucky man and will take the lesson to heart. I'm very thankful that i'm not sitting in jail right now, eating hot pockets and feeling like a failure piece of shit while simultaneously shitting into a toliet without a lid. I'm grateful for laura, for being supportive of me and being there with me even though i made a major fuck up. I'm glad my mom and I are court buddies, it's nice having someone to laugh at your jokes as you sit in a court room nervous as hell, (did i mention my mom serves drinks to the DA? yeah that's good too.) I'm also thankful for the other people who are being supportive/praying/being silent for me. I know the most of you don't think i'm a loser jack off who would rather get shit faced and drink and drive and kill girl scouts or stop signs rather than be humbled by my punishment and learn a lesson.

I'm still the same person i was before. But now i have the ultimatum of "fuck up again and you lose everything", so, i'll be good from now on. (Yes it's a shame it had to come to this and i had to push it this far, but whatever, i've always pushed boundaries. Now they're clearly defined.) >=D

[music |Doug Stanhope - DUI's and MADD]

If you never met a defeatist, go to an AA meeting.

If you've never been to AA (lol), let me give an example.

It's like going to a hole in the wall dive bar, and talking to the drunk 50 year old who doesn't have shit, hasn't done shit, and knows he's shit.

It's just like that except you're sober. Yeah, i fucked myself, i got a DUI, i'm awful, i have problems i need to work on, I definitely have a lot of regret and shame right now, i'm slightly mortified about what this is going to do to my future. But you know what booze gives me? EMPATHY! I can't relate to any of these people. Which i guess is good, it means i'm not a bottom runger.

I'm not christian either, that's a future problem. 7 of the 12 steps relate to god or giving yourself up to a higher power or admitting nothing is under your control. The South Park episode is extremely accurate in regards to AA and "alcoholics".

As of right now i'm going twice a week.

I have court tomorrow, wish me luck. Keep my pussy ass out of jail.
If court goes good tomorrow, the great white job hunt begins. I'm going to just let go of my shame and apply at wal-mart. I have a friend who is a good reference, and i've spoken to other workers and they've all said they're always hiring. So yeah.

I'll be wearing a blue t-shirt in AA.

heh.

So i got a DUI and i go to court on wednesday.

I'm doing everything in my power to not cry, shit, or vomit simultaneously. I can handle one at a time.

Being in jail sucks, i'm going to try and avoid that. It was cold and the toilet smelled.

Yes it was my fault and i deserve whatever happens to me. I feel worst for joey, his dad is a piece of shit.

Best case scenario: 4 points, a restricted license, and fines.
Worst case: Lost license, fines, AA meetings.


My nerves are still shot, and i need a shower. I'm going to simmer in my own shame for a few weeks.

Joey doesn't have anything wrong with him.
No need for leg braces, no diabeetus.
I'm proud of my sperm again.

He does however LOATHE doctors now. He used to be real good for his pediatrician but since his hospital visit he hates any and all forms of health care.

Specially today when he got 4 vaccinations >=(
And he's going to go get blood work done sometime next week.

Then he'll be good for another 6 months.

Other than that, Luke hasn't answered his phone in the past few days, so i don't know if we're having a BBQ or not. If we're not, I'm going to be an abusive boyfriend all day until all the clothes are folded and put away. I might just do that now, and just be an awesome boyfriend.

I haven't showered in 2 days though because joey's been attached to my hip and i've been letting laura have as much free time as possible so she could have fun at the concert and what not. So, props to me i guess. I'm glad to not have joey today though, i might even be a giant faggot and take a bath (though i probably won't because i don't want to share water between me and my nuts right now).

That's about it for this morning. I'm going to go to the bank, get some breakfast, fold clothes, take a shower, and hopefully BBQ later and have a few drinks and play star wars mini's.

And because i'm feeling like a sadist

I typically don't like Ray Ramano because i lump him in with the jerry seinfelds of comedy as 'retarded observational humor i noticed when i was 12'.

But he was on Letterman today and he was talking about a new show he's doing that's not going to be on cable.

He said he hates being censored because:

"It feels less organic. Do you know how many times on Everybody loves Raymond i just wanted to say 'SHUT THE FUCK UP DEBORAH!'"

I lol'd at that.

You should be able to swear and show nudes on cable. If you don't like it, you can pay an extra 15$ a month to not see it as opposed to me having to pay more a month because i'm not a giant vagina.

[mood | frumpy]

Instead of restless leg syndrome, joey has restless body syndrome and he loves to just randomly fling his body.

I just got my 5th nosebleed in 6 days. They all seem to happen around the same time. Perhaps i should do coke later in the day?

I have a bunch of shit to do tonight/tomorrow but i've had joey for 3 days straight and am now worrying about when my next shower is going to be. I'd be a terrible single parent, i wouldn't ever get shit done.

Laura's interview was good. She's making her way back from the show now. Then i'm going to my mom's to let the dog out and grab my 50$ debt card i got back from Verizon. Then i'm probably going to come home, have a cigarette, and take a shower.

Tomorrow i'm supposed to go to a small bar BBQ with laura and joey but it's looking like it's supposed to storm all day.

The tigers won 6 in a row today. It's nice getting to watch baseball, as i'm usually stuck listening to it on the radio. I'm thinking of picking up an older copy of MLB baseball and playing through a season. Why not.

Also tomorrow we find out if joey needs leg braces or if he has juvenile diabeetus. My kid went from the epitome of health to bubble boy. I'm gonna go ahead and stay optimistic.

I guess that's it. I'm just going to complain of the lack of food at the house. Laura went "grocery shopping" but it was more like, she bought a few bags of broccoli and that's it. I kind of hate when she goes grocery shopping. She gets a bunch of health food but then she doesn't buy anything else, so we still end up eating fast food 5 times a week. I'm a better shopper i think. Everything i buy gets eaten, and that even includes healthy shit.

blah blah blah i'm hungry and hot and tired and i got shit to do and laura's not here.

I need a beer.

Edit: I should elaborate on laura's health food. She buys 2 kinds. The first kind takes a long ass time to prepare but tastes excellent.
The 2nd you can microwave and it tastes like barf. So, we have no "healthy" snack food. Like right now, i'd LOVE a black bean burger, or a turkey sandwich, or some baked chips, or something else that's name brand and microwaveable. But instead of that i have frozen broccoli and frozen chicken breasts and other stuff that takes 30+ minutes to make.

Laura, ace reporter [Jun. 23rd, 2009|06:03 pm]
If anyone is interested Laura is interviewing Rise Against tomorrow at 4:30pm Eastern. She won a contest on 89x and since Rise Against is her current favorite band, she's bat shit crazy over it.

You can listen here if you're interested but not local http://www.89xradio.com/

I helped her write questions even though she didn't decide to keep some of my better, more colorful ones.


Joey's been asleep for 3 hours, i'm sure he's catching up on all the sleep he missed yesterday.
That or Motrin knocks his ass out like date rape.

Either way his fever is down. Last time i measured he was at 97.9 under the arm which means he's at 98.9 core. So he's okay. Just going to keep him drugged up for another day.

I'm going to get back to my cuddle bug.

Joey's first emergancy room trip. [Jun. 23rd, 2009|11:11 am]
[Tags|]
[mood | relieved]

The short of it:

I was getting ready to leave for work, laura and joey were laying on the couch. Laura says to me that joey is trembling in his sleep, i said it's normal, he's probably having a nightmare or something. Laura takes his temp, he's at 102.4 . So we wake him up, i prop him in my lap while laura gives him some Tylenol, he throws up all over the table, floor, and me (and my uniform).

She calls the childrens' doctor, the doctor says don't worry about it just gradually cool him down and give him tylenol. We calm joey down, i clean myself and the floor up as best i can. I head off for work.

I get to work, laura calls me, tells me to come home because now his temp is 103.5 . I tell my supervisor what's going on and she let's me go without a hassle (awesome).

Come home, get joey ready, pack a few books in case we're going to be there long, and we take off to go to Brownstown Henry Ford Emergency Care. They take us in immediately (there was hardly anybody there as far as i can tell). Joey is all sorts of upset and is crying when anyone touches him. They take a rectal temp and it's 103.2 or so. Joey's pissed, freaking out at all the nurses.

The doctor comes in, and after a few minutes laura recognizes him as the resident doctor who was taking care of us while laura was in triage and delivery. He's kind of unsure, and i was like, no, i definitely remember you because of your shoes (they were gray Nike running shoes with yellow trim, not exactly common or tasteful), him and the nurse laugh because he's had the same shoes since forever. har har har. What a coincidence. The doctor overseeing laura's labor is the doctor overseeing joey's first emergency room visit.

They move us to a room. Joey's been given motrin and a Popsicle. The place has direct TV, we immediately turn on noggin, Joey stops crying and smiles instantly. We've raised a couch potato who during all his suffering, still loves television. So he's calm and cooling down. Until the nurses come in and want a urine test, they have to use a catheter. My son, who's 1 year's old, gets a tube shoved up his dick, and he's of course livid while i'm cringing in the background. He was pretty restless and inconsolable after that. They do another rectal temp, and he's at 100.6, so the fevers down. yay.

Then we spent about another hour or so just waiting around for the urine test to come back and trying to keep joey still and mildly calm.

The test comes back negative for everything except something called "Secondary Reducing Substance" which the doctor says isn't a big deal and it's just something to bring up to the pediatrician (okay). We get released a little past 3 in the morning. Joey immediately passed out in the car. We then proceeded to drive to wal-greens and then to 4 different fast food places looking for an open mcdonalds or a 7-11 with taquitos for comfort food. Eventually we settle on burger king. We get home finally a little after 4. Eat, watch robot chicken, and go to sleep.


He's in good spirits now. His temp was 101.5 this morning but that's no big deal. Laura stayed home from work so we're just going to dote on Joey all day and clean the house. Crisis averted.

Thar I blowed [Jun. 22nd, 2009|08:58 am]
I had to go to the lawyers office yesterday morning to sign a receipt cause he lost it.

Anyways, afterwords we went and had breakfast/lunch/dinner at Sonic because it's been a while since we've done that. I was already nauseated and it didn't help that i ate a hamburger AND a footlong chili dog (lol i typed dong at first), we got about a half mile out of sonic and i made laura pull over to a random street in lincoln park and i proceeded to spew forth my sonic drive in goodness.

And right at that moment i got a nosebleed. I looked back at laura to ask her if i looked okay and she screamed "THERE'S BLOOD ALL OVER YOU? IS IT IN YOUR VOMIT?" The she proceeded to call her sister and ask her what it means when you get a nosebleed while puking and blah blah blah.

Then we came home and i took a 6 hour nap.
And went and got some long john silvers, deep fried sea food goodness.

Then there was a bill Muarry movie marathon on cable and i watched bill murray movies until 1 in the morning.

So i threw up
Got a nosebleed at the same time
took a 6 hour nap
ate deep fried fish and shrimp
bill murray
bed room love time

Father's day was good.
