Hows my little fetcher?

My cat is pretty weird, I think all cats are weird though.
Anyway, pretty often I get from people, "Tony, I don't see you as a cat person." I usually say something along the lines of I'm not, but this one likes me, and is weird like me, so we get along really well. Tonight we played fetch, which is another reason why I like my cat (and miss my dog).


Hows my little frosty pt.2?


Thank god it warmed up since last night...I'm positive my car won't start, so off to the bus stop!

Waking up extra early when you're tired to read the prose of Sophocles is ridiculously hard.

Hows my little frosty?


Yes its 2:30 but still thats really damn cold.

It rained last night before everything froze so every single surface that isn't driven on is covered in (more) ice. It took me 3 extra minutes to walk 3 blocks to the bus stop. If this thaw/rain/refreeze keeps going I am going to have to get some crampons just to get to school.

Hows my little Rambler?

Let me set this straight, before I get a complaint. I have picked up an exercise routine, I enjoy working out and having the ability to run for two or more blocks without being ridiculously tired. With that comes some side effects, such as...

I lost a Pound!! One whole pound! isn't that great? I think so too that means that despite eating nearly half a cake this weekend (as well as moving very little) my lowered consumption of beer (due to saving money) and increase of walking to school and exercising my body has shed an entire pound. It's probably water weight.

I am reading a wonderful book called Middlesex right now. Superb, I recommend it.

Do you have a dream boy/girl? The ultra person you crave to strip their clothes off in an alley and do the unmentionable with? What if your wish was granted and they sucked at it, worst sex ever. That little bit has gotten me thinking a lot today about my thoughts of the many "attractive" women I walk past in the world. Those thoughts have lead to a new appreciation of my wonderful Girlfriend.



Don't get me wrong though, I will still stand by the "if you can't look you might as well be dead" phrase.

My one successful thing I did this weekend was buy an iPod. That puts me at 3 MP3 players now, need one? Ask me I can hook you up with a pretty sweet deal. Unlike my miniPod I havedecided to use the earbuds because the current headphones as much as I like them don't fit under a winter hat, and get annoying after wearing them for more than an hour or two. With my new initiation into the world of white growths from a person's ears I couldn't help but notice (and count) all of the iPod headphones I encountered at school today (not counting the weightroom) I landed at 12. 12!!! 6 of those were on my bus ride to school this morning! AMAZING.

Today at the bus stop I told a stranger he had a fuzzy on his lip, it turned out to be toothpaste. He was grateful.

Hows my little bum?

This has been the laziest weekend in recent memory, I think last time I did this little my appendix was abruptly taken from me.

Good thing I feel healthy.

I read through that link and loved every bit of that story, if you have time you should too!

Hows my little foot?

One time I told someone that today was the first day of the end of their life and they promptly told me that was a very sad thing to say, obviously I said it without thinking too hard about it but now that I think about it...hell yes it is sad, but its true. It brings out all sorts of other idioms that you may or may not remember about the brevity of life to mind.

This blog is not about any of those things.

Today I am just here to say it is to say that the first (and now second) day of my last semester of my final year of college, and I couldn't be happier. So as to not bore you folks who have finished school, I'll leave it at that.

I stepped on a scale today and clocked in at 195. About this time last year I weighed 10-15 pounds less. Too many brownies (or beers) me thinks.
Wish me luck in my newly restarted workout endeavors! (climbing included!)

Hows my little Hermit?

Laura and I were hermits this weekend.
We went to a wonderful place called Camp Amnicon which is a little gem tucked away on the shores of lake superior alongside the Amnicon river. Admittedly we were a little nervous to be invading this luthern land of the holy as an unwed couple spending some time in one of their one bed cabins but as soon as we got there we were greeted with a smiling face who happily ushered us to our cabin while explaining a myriad of things to do while we were staying there.


Here is a shot of our cozy little cabin...perfect is the only word I would use to describe it


This is where business was taken car of, there was a heater in there which was better than nothing, but since I bundled up just to get there it didn't matter too much to me. The seat may as well have been made of ice it was so cold. Also note: it was a smelly outhouse by the end of the two day endeavor.


The tiny little place was full of everything we needed and forgot.

It had a little propane stove for heat and a big jug of water for drinking/ect.

Our first night was a spent warming up and chilling out, we played a heated game of scrabble and guzzled a couple of bottles of vino. We had the excellent idea to bring my foreman grill and cook some cheeseburgers which was an excellent idea by any standard. Later we tried watching a movie on Laura's new computer, which proved to be a disaster.

Note to the world, Windows VISTA home basic does NOT come with DVD support and you will need to download another program to watch ANY DVD.

So after that failed attempt and of course no internet for we were in a cabin in the woods we slept.

Day two we made some oatmeal and dragged ourselves out of bed around 11 and managed to brave the sub-zero outdoors for a it of (failed) geocaching and a stroll along the lake and up the river. Of course since we were in a camp of the lord we had to make a couple of:


The evening's highlight was dinner which was sauerkraut and pork chops tossed into our crock-pot. it was so tempting to eat all day, how I managed to wait was an impressive feat. With our books and my explanation on how the electoral college vote works we managed to pass the time with no issues at all.

In Sum, the little hermatage cabins at camp amnicon were worth every penny of Laura's hard earned money and we would do it again without a second thought.

Hows my little Monkey Spanker?

WHAT?
Monkey Spanker? Yeah, jerkoff.

Be it known to the world I FatTonyTCL of Blogger wish someday to partake in the voyeuristic experience of catching someone in the midst of the horizontal mambo with their significant other through their window. But not on purpose, no I am not a creep. I want to walk by and see their leg up in the window, Pause, and wait to see what they will reveal to me in the throws of their dirty deed.

Tonight I experienced half of my wish.

Half you say? yes half.
I bet you get it now.

It was an innocent catch on my way to getting ready for bed I noticed jinx poking her head out from her hiding place behind my curtain in the window, thinking it would be fun to play I hid from her and later chased her around my room. Upon her return to her spot in the window I stopped when I saw someone in the neighbor's house. Sitting at a place I have long assumed to be a desk. When I noticed something moving very rapidly in what I could only assume was HIS lap. In a fit of disgust and enchantment I called Laura and Promptly told her what I was witnessing.

Naturally I have learned from various Titacular Tuesdays and my friends lewd mouths I know the result of said...self gratification. So I had to stick around to see what happened. I couldn't watch for more than a few seconds at a time though, and after a long period of shut eyes I opened them to see the man in some sort of collared shirt, wind pants and socks get up with a cupped hand and leave the view of my/their window.

GAY? nope I'm not gay, I love my lady, and get creeped out about any dude's dude but catching your neighbor masturbating, dear lord its damn near mesmerizing a shameful mesmerization at that.

With that my friends, unless you specifically are looking for someone to watch your alone time, shut your blinds, close those curtians, move your computer with your giant porn stash out of your living room. If it was meant to be discreet keep it that way.

Cheers!






I will say though it was the best laugh of the new year.
