It's the day where we all eat lots and lots of food, and then talk about "that thing that's in turkey that makes you sleepy"...no one knows what it is...but everyone talks about it! This is also my first Thanksgiving as an official "Ball and Chain" It's bitchin'! I've got a wife..she's a pretty lady, she makes me laugh, and she makes me the happiest guy around.
I am thankful for all my friends who awesome...and for my family who, while being crazy, are fantastic! Angie wrote a big long blog about being thankful for everything..and I feel the same...if you'd like to know exactly how I feel...check her blog...she's poetic! I am now going to continue resting...and watching 30 Rock...but...don't doubt that I am thankful for you...and the ability to voice my thankfuls and opinions...because...for the most part..everything sucks...but..for one day...I'm thankful to be able to bitch about them!
Love, and Thanks...
Cincinnati!

Easy like Sunday Mornin....
As I've always said, "Sundays are great!" Not and awesome quote...but...nonetheless...true! I work up late...I ate a delish breakfast while watching Sportscenter, I read a bit of the newspaper, and I've watched movie after movies since. I know Sunday's in the fall are made for watchin football...but...the Bengals are off today...so..I'm giving myself a rest from the pain of having a favorite team...blah...I'm beginning to doze while writing this...so..I'm going to pass on writing more...I feel I've made my point in bringing to light just how awesome Sunday's are...Go Sundays!

Fair...or BULLSHIT?
Some of you may know, some of you may not know...I work for a Hospital. The "38th best place to work" in the nation, so we're told....I'm here to tell you that this title is complete and total bullshit. The rules at this place are some of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard of...I had to file for family/medical leave to go be with my mom during her cancer surgery...
Today...to basically top off the whole shit-sandwich...I was told that my shift is being switched...from 7:30-4 to 8-4:30....now...sure..it's 30 mins. But, because of that 30 mins, it'll add around another 20 mins on my drive to and from work...so...I'll get to sit through traffic twice as much now...also...because I do the work of a person and a half...and more work than anyone I work with...(I'm not talking shit about any of you people that I work with if you read this) But, I do that much work and I get "demoted". When I sent a message to my supervisor about how I thought it was shit that I am getting the shaft and how I felt about it...she sent this response back to me. "This decision was based on business need, no one is being punished for anything" Are you freaking kidding me???? I know I'm not being punished for anything...I didn't do anything wrong...But, I am getting shafted by this bullshit company for working my ass off...
Needless to say...if anyone knows of any job openings...let me know...because I'm ready to leave this place and hope they get a nice look at my caboose on the way out...(My butt's not bad)

It's up to you????
That's right kids...it's election day. The day where you can either vote for "The Black Guy" or "The Woman". Either way, it's a big big historic vote. And you'll all be part of it. I've still got to figure out where I can vote today...because I'm not completely sure where I'm registered....but I know it's somewhere.
The thing is...now that I'm married...kids are on the way (not yet..but I'm sure sooner than later)..and I actually have to pay attention to this world. Which...in a thought...is scary as hell. I've got to listen to these grumpy old people talk, I've got to be moved by someone, and hope that they make the best decisions for my nation..and the future of my kids (that I'll have someday), because...by the time the next election rolls around...I'm going to have a kid (HOLY SHIT!). It's not a bad thing at all...I'm excited to be a dad, but to bring a kid into a world that you have no faith in is scary...that's why this "voting/paying attention to the world" thing is a big big deal.
I, if you care to know, will be voting for the Black Guy. When he talks...people listen. He sounds like he actually knows what's going on, and that he's got some real ideas on how things can be better around here. In all actuality, I don't think they'll be much of a change in anything whoever is elected, but in the end I think Obama is going to be a huge step forward in America. I like what he says, and as the people said when they were going to endorse Colin Powell, "He speaks so well!" He is not a crotchety old man making fun of people. AKA McCain. Sadly....when Mccain tried to run before...I would have voted for the guy, but it seems now that he's reverted into his mean, smart-mouthed childhood. Dana Carvey said taking care of an old man is like taking care of a toddler...and I think Mccain would be throwing his food on the floor and begging for toys in the department store way too soon for me. Damn Kids/Old people.
I'm just rambling now...but...dammit..it's my blog..and I can do that. I'm on break at work..and I felt the need to speak my mind! So...go vote! and in the words of the weirdly opaque pop-star Michael Jackson..."Make that change!"
Peace,
Cincinnati

We got a first timer here....
Hey kiddo's...I've blogged in the past...nothing too exciting other than my delightful "You know what really grinds my gears" awesomness...but this is a real blog spot and whatnot...So...I'ma bloggin bitches!
Things have been pretty crazy lately...I got married at the beginning of this month..(kind of a big deal). I married a delightful lady..her name's Angie. Most of you have met her...the others of you who haven't...I recommend you do so...she's the "Bee's knees".
In other, not so awesome news, 2 days after we got home from our Honeymoon we found out my mom has cancer...she has Uterine cancer. She has a complete hysterectomy on Friday...and she was released from the Hospital today (Monday). They believe they got all the cancer, and they say she should be fine in a few weeks...let's hope so. The best part of the whole ordeal was her being mean an belligerent after her surgery because she was so doped up..and for those of you who know my mom..."Doped up Teresa" couldn't be funnier. But I'm completely relieved that she's alright, I don't know what I'd do without her...she's bailed me out so many times..but more than that...She's the first woman in my life...and she and Angie have grown very close. I can't think of not having her around...so...good thing for me..and everyone else, she's gonna be around for a while! LOVE YOU MOMMY!!!!!
Alright folks...I'm tired..and I'm quitting this blog thing for the evening. I shall write again soon...probably tomorrow if something super or awesome happens to me...or if I'm pissed...of bored...or feel like talking shit about someone...for any of those reason...I'll be back. Don't miss it!
