today, i took my first sick day of the year… while i was out, i was really out… Monday began with a sore throat and a minor cough, Monday night found little boy coming down with a grand old case of pink eye… i stayed home with him Tuesday and Wednesday and by Thursday, he was doing much better, but that which was bothering me sprung forth with the quickness and by Thursday afternoon, i was down for the count… today i stayed home, with a fever, coughing and wicked headaches… the week has totally flashed by me like a streaker and now, we’re only like two weeks away from Christmas and i feel so far behind… anyway, i promise to keep my head up long enough to pick my football winners and then maybe if i’m still up for it, i’ll get back to work on a super secret project that i’m putting together for Christmas…

off we go…

SPORTS: THE FIFTEENTH

to the tune of Let’s Get It Started – Kidz Bop Kids

well, playoffs started in one league and i lost by 0.12 points… that’s right, a very slim margin and it wasn’t cool, because i had swapped out a receiver who was injured with someone else… but apparently the system didn’t acknowledge it… and, even 1 point would’ve made the difference… so, third place is the best i can hope for there… what a disappointment… playoffs begin this week in my other league and not that i’m talking trash, but Wally is totally going down…

anyway, last week, my picks went the wrong way… 5-11… ugly… this brings my season total to 115-92-1… okay, rally caps on… i need to bring it back, despite already being down by 1… the winners this week are as follows…

Saints, Falcons, Redskins, Texans, Packers, 49ers, Seahawks, Jets, Chargers, Colts, Cards, Steelers, Panthers, Pats, Giants, and Eagles…

and that’s all he wrote…

peace… love… bdg…
