Seriously. It took 24 years and 3 months for it to happen, but it finally did. I was on my way out to get in the sweet 2009 Mustang GT I am driving courtesy of D&D Ford when I felt something hit me. Amazingly, it went behind my glasses and only a fraction of an inch from being in my left eye. IN MY EYE! A couple of seconds later, before I went back into the house, I scratched my head and realized there was more in my hair.
I have nothing else to say about that. Everyone’s gonna get dumped on by a bird at some point. A dude my size, probably more often than most people. All you can do is laugh, or get really mad and make it seem worse than it is. Unless it’s that weird purple bird crap. If that ever happens, I’ll flip out for sure.

Here’s something weird about the life I lead. I live downtown in an old house that was smartly divided up into 3 apartments. I’ve been watching a lady walk around my neighborhood for probably the last year or so. On Monday, there was snow on the ground and she had no work so she heard the show for the very first time and somehow (I should ask, I guess) she figured out who I was and started emailing me. So now I can hang out on my porch and talk to her every time she passes by in 15-second mini-conversations.  I like when my life is like a sitcom. A good one. Not like any of the ones on network TV right now.

I’ve been in a great mood for two solid days now. It’s unusual. The product of my new bed. At least I’m attributing it to that. When you get some memory foam and good stuff going on, you can’t help waking up in a good mood unless you’re just not a nice person. It feels like I sleep on a cloud now.
I’m only slightly creeped out by having the same bed as both Skip and Maffew. Skip’s bedroom is identical to mine. Matt has the same style as well, but he went with the higher foot and the leather on the headboard while I am more fond of an understated look. Basically all of us having the same bed just means we don’t like sleigh beds because you can either have the bed we all got or you can buy a sleigh beds. If you have a sleigh bed, I suggest you start a bonfire immediately.

Easily 5 or 6 people have asked me today where I think Terrell Owens will play football next. I don’t know. Pick a team and say it’s my guess. Just don’t say Oakland for fun and attribute it to me because I’d never make that joke. Here’s hoping he winds up on another NFC East team, though. Maybe the Redskins. They’ll do anything. I’m just not sure they could afford him even if they wanted him.
