Welcome To Detox Tuesday
Do You Believe In Christmas Miracles?
Yesterday’s Eagles v. Cowboys game didn’t play out nearly the way I wanted it to, but…. I now introduce to you the League Champions of my Fantasy Football league the East Atlanta Deadbeat Dads! WoooooooHoooooooo!
My 6-7 Double D’s beat the 11-2 League Juggernaut Colorbar by a final score of 93.86 to 81.68.
Twas The Morning After Christmas
Twas the morning after Christmas
And all through my head
Was pounding and fogginess
That made me wish that I was dead
Again I awoke from a slumber
Thinking aloudly to myself
Why I felt it necessary
To drink every alcohol on the shelf
I had arrived at Betsy’s at 10am
To eat Tweety Bird waffles was the plan
However soon after Prosecco, champagne and beer
Were poured from bottle and can
As the morning turned to night
We surfed to YouTube and removed our sneakers
Where Blondie, Bon Jovi and Scorpions
Were blasted through the computer speakers
“Load faster!”
At the computer we shouted
Our love for 80s hairbands
Could not be doubted
We sang and danced with delight
Completely filling our bodies with booze
We even managed to banish the horrible memories
Of watching “The Christmas Shoes”
Twelve hours after my arrival
I managed to retire to my couch
Fully knowing that on Tuesday morning
The first word I would utter would be “Ouch!”
I hope that everyone had as much fun as I did at Christmas.
Thanks Betsy!

This is Reese, my friend Betsy’s dog.
Reese can’t understand why humans are so stupid.
And now for some ideas stolen from LiveJournal…
Current Mood - rough
Current Music - Sirius Satellite Radio, Channel 26 playing Pavement — “Father To A Sister Of Thought”
Website Of The Day - Reese probably doesn’t understand why cats like the Wii either. Don’t believe me? Go check out Wii Kitties.
Training Target - don’t know
Exercise (b)Log - none

Congrats on your fantasy football victory. I wrapped up a championship in one league last night too. (belated) Merry Christmas to you and your family. I still really enjoy your blog though I don’t comment as much. Hope your Gators represent the SEC well in January. Have a great 2007!
Thanks Oliver. I hope that your Christmas was fantastic. I am hoping my currently lucky streak will continue through Jan 8th and hopefully for the entirety of 2007.
You should give yourself credit on your exercise log for all that fancy foot work you showed us last night.
Thanks again!
My sad attempts at “dancing” are far from noteworty. Calling my dancing exercise is like calling fat-free cheese tasty.
[...] Instead I chose to ride the road to nowhere. I blew off a year’s worth of dust on my bike trainer and pumped up the tires on my bike (why do they go flat when not used?) and spun my heart out for a sweaty hour. It wasn’t my best indoor ride and it wasn’t my worst either. I need to get a different rear tire and make some adjustments to my rig in order to have a better ride. During my hour of spinning I watched the No Reservations episode where Anthony Bourdain visited Ireland, confirming my belief that I need to make a trip there one day, and then finished the hour flipping around Sirius for tunes. After reading about my Christmas escapades (or experiencing it if you were one of the Few and Proud) it should come as no surprise when I tell you I broke out into laughter when the first song I tuned into was a Scorpions tune.
