Birthday!

First, something I was going to comment on last week, but seems appropriate now, even if it only appeals to my adolescent sense of humor. There was a big article on how Viagra may help the sex drive of women who are on a certain type of anti-depressants. The researcher from the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction? Dr. Julia R. Heiman. Yeah, the spelling's wrong, but you just can't make that shit up. Do all the researchers at Kinsey have either anatomical or porn star names?

This past weekend was my bday (thanks to all of my well wishers). Sunday we did the big family party at my s-i-l's, which was mostly fun. My mom drank WAY too much and with all the loud talking and incessant retelling of inane and inaccurate stories, I just wanted to go into my nephew's room and play on the computer.

Among the cool presents (automatic martini shaker?), the wife and the HB got us tickets for the Dodgers-Giants game for last night. This surprise was a bummer because I had made plans to see one of my buddy's son, with whom I share a birthday, who turned 21. Fuck...it was either piss of the wife or break a promise. So, after the wife gave me the out I still decided to go to the game. I'm bummed that I missed his bday (I called and explained), but it wouldn't have been worth all of the shit. BTW--The Dodgers played like shit, rallied, but still lost, 7-6.

Before going to the game, I cashed in a "golden movie ticket" from the HB and we all went and saw Journey to the Center of the Earth. We saw it in 3D, which was cool. But, there's not a whole lot there and dialogs is horrendous (I can't believe they credited three people with the screenplay).

The HB's between camps this week, so it's going to be a sorta work week. Today I worked in the morning and the HB and I played some GH and got some new fish for his tank. Tomorrow we're gonna get the nephew and go to the fair, have him sleepover then go to Universal on Thursday (they boys can't wait to get on the Simpson's ride).
