I'm here a few hours now... waiting for a Deadspin post... getting softer; every minute I stay in this room, I get weaker, and every minute Drew squats in the bush, he gets stronger. Each time I looked around, the walls moved in a little tighter.

I know I'm about a year late on this, but Forgetting Sarah Marshall? Not that funny. Although the puppet musical and "Animal Instincts" made me laugh.

@The Boy Wonder: My girlfriend (who is a puppeteer) watched it last week and didn't think it was that funny. I've been drinking since about 9 PM so I may have laughed at some unfunny jokes, but I really didn't think it was all that. I liked the puppet musical, though she said the puppetry was sub-par. But it was a good way to kill two hours.

Now, on to Guitar Hero.

I thought you were joking with a name like "Dagmar Midcap."

I don't even have a particular thing for redheads.

Good heavens.

Stefen Welsh and Rotnei Clarke were downright frosty tonight.

Hogs win and I'm going to bed.

Night kids, enjoy your turkey.

Housework: I can clean the floor, cook dinner, and wash dishes, but I will never figure out how to fold a fitted bed sheet. I just get it into a basic square, flatten it out, and stuff it in the closet. This is why I love living alone.

The thing with the Dyson and with any vacuuming really in my mind is the sense of accomplishment. You can see what you have done, it looks better, and you have conclusive proof when someone comes home and asks what you have done, you can point to the vacuum trail marks.

@Pete Gaines: You know those guys at Fenway who make the patterns in the outfield grass? They are my role model when vacuuming. I once tried to get a block M. Didn't work.

By the way, a hat tip to the person who linked to the Buzz Ballads 2 album earlier, I have finished assembling it with little to no cost to myself. I left the Creed song off, because, well...

Eh, the Dyson is cool, but it doesn't attack the cat on its own. That's what the Roomba is for.

@44 in a Row: The pup has challenged the Dyson to a fight on several occasions. Ultimately, he chooses not to kill again.

Something's happened during the course of Tyler Hansbrough's career that's made me go from his freshman year when I'd say, "Man, that kid really hustles and I respect the hell out of his game" to his senior year when I'm saying, "Man, I'd really like to punch that slack-jawed motherfucker right square in the balls."

I'm not ignoring you guys, I'm just helping cook. Apparently when you're engaged, you get to help prep things. I was not aware of this, but I'm totally down with it.

I'm always thankful for boobies. I can't recall a time in my life where I've said to myself, "Self, here comes some boobies. That sucks."
