Happy Halloween, folks. Here I am back with yet another set of random
thoughts and observations that have come across my mind recently. Be
careful not to spook yourself reading them. Enjoy.
- I've been
having fun recently health-wise, sarcastically speaking. I thought it
was either my contacts (my eyes were itching) or a cold, but I was wrong
on both counts. My sinuses just decided to go haywire once again and
they are really flaring up today. Usually when it's this obvious it
means that things will improve real soon, but I hate dealing with this
stuff. It looks like Vicks Vaporub and Sinutab for the foreseeable
future. One good thing for all of you: it's not contagious so you
can't get what I got.
- According to Jym Ganahl of NBC4 in Columbus, beware of vampire moths...they will suck your blood.
- BTW, before I forget, it is Halloween so....BOO!!!
- Around this time ten years ago I was forced to leave Columbus and move
back to Akron as part of a long-term downward spiral that pretty much
lasted until the end of 2002. Trust me, it's not something I want to
relive nor want anybody to ever have to go though themselves. Even
though I still have issues from time to time and I get depressed now and
then (like recently), I can say that it can never get as bad as it did
all those years ago. It took support from my friends and lessons I
should have learned early on in childhood but didn't until 2002 for my
life to turn around. I don't think anybody who knows me now would even
recognize the person I was pre-2003...things have changed that much.
Even though I am going through a rough patch right now, I do want to
thank those people who since that time have supported me and helped me
get through these past few years. It means an awful lot to me.
- As always, I'm not letting a blog go by without a plug for my church,
Crossroads World Christian Center. Check out www.crossroadswcc.org for
more about my church.
- No Buckeye game this weekend. Seems odd especially this late in the season. Oh well.
- Daylight savings time is this weekend. That means we have an extra
hour this weekend. For us night owls, that means an extra hour of
partying and dancing. At least I hope I'm over my sinus stuff before
then.
- For those of you who registered and haven't voted yet
and have the early voting option, go vote. I've already done it so I
could avoid lines next Tuesday. If you miss the early vote, then don't
forget to stand in line on Tuesday to do so...it may be a while but it
is your civic responsibility (that's right...I pulled the
"responsibility" card...whatcha gonna do about it....yeah, I thought
so!).
- Speaking of next Tuesday, I have a short job assignment
that's election related. I'll talk about it once I'm done with it, so
it looks like even though I'm not doing partisan stuff, I'm not done
with this election yet.
- Browns vs. Ravens on Sunday at 1 PM. I'm gonna go see it at GameWorks with my fellow Browns Backers. Should be fun.
That's
all for now. Join me next time as I sob, cry, and bawl my way through
the mediocrity and suffering that I like to call "November"...should be a
hoot. Before I go, I got one more thing to say....BOO!!!! Hope I
didn't scare you too much. Take care and God Bless.
