Dog owning uncle who's not going to the World Series

I'm getting my dog on Saturday! I won't be playing cards online for a while (my recent winnings are actually going to help pay for all the crap I need to do for him), and definitely won't be going out for a while, to be able to afford to get a puppy (not to mention due to training him), but he's already the most badass dog ever and I haven't even seen him yet. He fucking rules. And yeah, still sticking by the name "Daly." Which translates to "advisor" (read a few posts down to get the whole story on the name... although I just recently discovered "Daly" and "Daley" mean two different things, and "Daly" is the correct spelling). And if my parents give me any grief for getting a dog so soon (not that it's really their place), I can counter with this gem: OH YEAH?! WELL YOUR OTHER SON IS HAVING A CHILD! That's right kiddos, I'm going to be an uncle. How sweet ass sweet is that?! I'm going to spoil the hell outta that kid. Although the great part about being an uncle is that I don't have to change his diapers. And Daly's going to be like 17-18 lbs when he's full grown, so when he's potty training he's gonna take tiny shits. I hate cleaning up shits.

Btw, if you got World Series tickets, I hate you. You know how there were 8.5 million hits yesterday and however many million today for people trying to get tickets? Yeah my office was responsible for about 7 million of those. And no one in the office got tickets. I never saw this kind of rush for tickets when they were 10 games below .500. What gives?

Will post more later (especially after I get Daly), but for now I have to go to bed. Had a long day of accounting, with more of the same tomorrow.

(btw, I realize my blogs so far haven't been as good as they were this summer (when I was doing fuck-all all day). Trust me, once I get back in the swing of things, they'll return to the quality of "Job Interviews Make Me Hate Francis Ford Coppola." That was my favorite post so far. I'm funny.)

GOP debate

Ok, no surprise to anyone that knows me that I am a Republican. If you're a Democrat and make a comment that is anti-GOP than well I don't care, because you're wrong. But watching this debate, despite all the kiss-ass and what have you that is present in all debates from both parties, this was by far the best debate so far. And the thing is I respect the hell out of a lot of the men on that stage. Quite a few of them are not just a face that smiles for the camera and kisses babies, but are actually really respectable, GOOD men. McCain, Rudy, Mitt, Huckabee. Those are GOOD men. There is pretty much no question about that. But a good man does not always make the best president. So let's see how they did.

McCain: Very well. Most polls, news stations, hell probly other GOP sources will disagree. But he shows what a good man with a strong background can do. He stepped up his performance and I thought did awesome. He shows that yes he is for a troop surge (something that I 100% agree with, but is not inherently positive.) His exact quote: "I would rather lose an election than lose a war" shows why I like and support him and why he probly won't win, even if his election would be a great step for this country.

Rudy: Look, Rudy has had personal problems. And his "cell phone answer" the other day was grimace-worthy. And he is more left-wing than I am. But I realize that not everyone is as right-wing as I am. He would be great as a president. I truly believe that. He is showing why the Clinton getting a BJ from Monica was a big problem. And that is extremely ironic, but let me explain: Clinton lying about his personal life was representative of other problems from his administration. He was untruthful with the country, and basically fucked our military by being weak on people trying to kill us (pulling out of Mogadishu anyone?), why glossing it over and putting a pretty face on things by taking credit for stuff Reagan put in practice. He looked to please people while not actually trying to lead us in the right direction. And that's why (pre-cell phone call) I liked Rudy. He said basically, I fucked up in my personal life but that is not at all representative of how I would lead the country, and he showed that while he led NYC. His performance today was much better in that he showed that yes I am human (whereas he used to deny it), BUT I am a better leader than I have been in my personal life. I liked his performance, but it wasn't great enough to get elected.

Mitt: Mitt, Mitt, Mitt. You are my frontrunner. What happened man? You would probly be the best president of all the people running for president. You would be one of the best presidents of the past 20 years. But did get drunk last night? Are you hungover? What happened. I did not like Mitt's performance today. He almost fell into "Clinton syndrome" and just put a smiling face next to issues that require a real honest answer. I wasn't impressed with his performance. Though if he rebounds he will probly still be my frontrunner.

Huckabee: Oh, Huckabee. You win the debate tonight. You are what I would've been like tonight. But there is no way in fuck-all you will win vs. the "Inconvenient Truth" believing public that is the uneducated portion of the USA. I loved your answers and your poise and comfortability with difficult issues. You are a good man, and I salute you and wish you could be president, but it would never happen.



BTW, I about 95% of the time try to avoid political thoughts, and I apologize this slip up. But I felt like it needed to be said and next post I'll go back to the BS.

I want to be a bodyguard

You know I love my job. Actually scratch that I love the people I work with. My actual job blows. So I think I've decided on what my career path will ultimately be. I'm gonna start eating 7 steaks a day and living at the gym and "accidentally" taking some "designer steroids" from Barry Bonds' "trainer." I'm gonna be fucking huge. Like "holy shit I know my dick is shrunk from this shit but Jesus chicks dig muscles and I'm getting more ass than a proctologist" huge. Then I'm gonna be a bodyguard. No not a real bodyguard for a real celebrity, but rather a "bodyguard" for a C list celebrity. One of those celebrities that no one has told that "hey, no one is ever gonna try to mug you because the fat guy from Borat who ran around with his balls hanging out is more famous than you are" celebrity. Like a Surreal Life all-star type celebrity. Does Tiffany (the 80's pop star) have a bodyguard opening? Or is it Tiffani? Or tifani? I don't know, because NO ONE FUCKING KNOWS! BUT SHE FUCKING NEEDS ME AS HER BODYGUARD!



ok: serious note. I haven't updated on purpose. I've been coming home exhausted, and I'm barely at my place lately. So I'm exhausted when I am here and I'm worried that this blog might come across a little angry / whiny which is 100% not me or how everything is going. Tons of shit has happened that has made me laugh (the only shit I blog), but I've been worried it would suck in blog-form. I'm happy as shit lately and everything's going great, so a tired blog just won't do that justice. And the second I look at this blog and realize it's even coming close to being emo-esque, then fuck that I quit. So yeah, that explains the absence of me in the blog world. But I'll be back more regularly now that I've gotten settled.
