Anger Management

OK , I'm not angry, but I have been sort of feeling like a curt asshole. And not for my normal reasons of just being a sort of a socially inept Larry David-esque idiot. I have a toothache. Correction, I have a motherf*cking hurts like a beeeeeeeotch toothache. Started about a week ago and gets worse every day. Called my dentist on Friday and the soonest I can get in is Wednesday. Yikes!! Nothing helps it. Except some sort of weird breathing through my lower teeth thing that makes me look half retarded/half like a serial killer. And beer. Beer sort of helps. But if the beer is focusing all it's attention to killing pain, how is going to do it's REAL job of making me feel "whole and complete?" I'm kidding, people, relax.

The legs felt like two cold slabs of rotten beef yesterday, so I aborted a ride today. Probably not a good move given that this week will have few riding opportunities. B-Man is off school most of the week, Wifey is working most of the week, I have parent/teacher conferences, the weather looks shit, Thanksgiving to cook, and a tooth to get pulled, filled, capped, etc., etc., Maybe it would be best to just call this week the "last week of the year" with 2010 starting NEXT week. Then I can focus on trying to work my way up to mediocre again and TRY (with the Grace of God and two fingers down my throat inspired eating disorder) to creep down from Clydesdale Class.

On a good note, here is a shot of the new XXC shirts that will soon be available....

My buddy DPOW (as he's now known as Thanks to Brad) is the first to own one. I think that HE thinks they'll be worth something, and he's going to sell it on eBay, but sadly they will probably be a heather gray reminder of the mag that almost was. Kidding of course, I'm here until the last credit card is maxed out. The shirts will be available real soon, along with Issue #5. Stay tuned.

Later.
