TOP TEN REASONS WHY MY BLOGGING HASN'T BEEN UPDATED

10. Caught up in Rally Monkey Fever.

9. Boss won't let me.

8. I have nothing to say at the moment.

7. Free Cinemax for a year.

6. Busy surfing the Internet, coming across such sites as David Letterman's Top Ten Archives.

5. Trying to win fantasy football league.

4. I still have nothing to say at the moment.

3. Environmentalists are getting on my case about upsetting the spotted owl habitat. (Oh, I'm sorry....that's a reason why my LOGGING hasn't been updated.)

2. She won't let me get past first base. (Oh, I'm sorry....that's a reason my SNOGGING hasn't been updated.)

1. Stephanie Losi's blog hasn't been updated, either, so, get off my back!

Ok, I admit it....I don't have any regularly-scheduled blogging.

It's not always easy to think of stuff to write down.

I interrupt my regularly scheduled blogging with this breaking news.

I actually woke up early on a Saturday...10:30 a.m. Anytime I awake before noon on a weekend, it's early for me. So I flipped on the TV to ESPN2, which was broadcasting a collegiate football contest between my alma mater, Northwestern, and fellow Big Ten foe Penn State. As the set glowed brighter, I could see a Penn State running back galloping into the end zone. With about 2 minutes left in the 1st half -- Penn State 35, Northwestern 0. I repeat, in the FIRST HALF!

I decided to flip around to the gaggle of other collegiate games on my cable system. I was treated to Washington-USC, Alabama-Mississippi, Notre Dame-Air Force, Auburn-Florida, Applachian State-Georgia Southern...and many more. By the time I saw the finishing touches on Hawaii's 37-10 victory over Tulsa, I realized I spent all day inside, watching football.

What a great weekend!

Over the weekend, I had one of those epic dreams where one event leads to another...and so on and so on, not unlike a NBC miniseries....if NBC still does miniseries.

Anyway, it was the result of an evening of beer consumption among peers, which I counteracted with a late-night meal courtesy of Taco Bell. I find that the greasiness of a Big Beef Burrtio Supreme and Chicken Quesadilla offsets the alcohol accumulated in my stomach. It doesn't cure my drunkeness, but I don't wake up the next morning with a headache....just a stomachache which is quickly taken care of.

So, I dreamt I was in Las Vegas. Not at a casino, mind you, but in a retirement community. For some reason, I was living in an apartment at this senior citizens complex...yet I was in my current age (mid-to-late 20s). And the apartment I had was much bigger & nicer than my current non-dream accommodations.

The owner of the complex discovered this, and she told me she was under the impression that I was just visiting, not living there. So she tells me I must vacate immediately....else I'll be in big trouble. So I start carrying out boxes....in the middle of the night...and driving to Los Angeles, taking only one box at a time. I wake up, and tell a friend about the weird dream I just had, and the friend just laughs.

But here's the weird part: When I talk to the friend, I'M STILL DREAMING! I dreamt that I told someone about a weird dream I had, when in fact the weird dream I just had was just an eariler part of the same dream I was currently dreaming. Wow, talk about a multi-layered subconscious. Guess it just shows what a complex individual I am.

Unfortunately, I forget the naughtier parts of the dream, if there were any. Would have made for a more interesting entry.
