Introduction to The Boring Things

Welcome to the world of the mundane. Things that you once thought were not boring, turn out to actually be boring. This blog will explore, react, counteract, and bore for hours of boring displeasure.

When there is truly nothing in life you'd rather be doing than reading this blog, you'll know that you are, indeed, very bored. And quite possibly, very boring.

I would say that I don't want to bore you with the details, but quite frankly, I do. Every boring little detail. So as I sit here, with my now-empty cup of root beer... *tangent*

Last night I drank about 16 fluid ounces of root beer and was struck with the most fantastically large stomach ache. I curled up on the floor in a fetal position for about 15 minutes, and then I went to the bathroom to attempt to vomit up whatever was bothering me. I was unsuccessful in this regard, but another five minutes laying on the bathroom floor, my face only inches away from someone's pubic hairs, my stomach settled, and I returned to playing my franchise (the Oakland Raiders) on the game Madden NFL 2006. I could have purchased Madden 2007, but 2006 was $2 cheaper, so I went with that option. My team is now in its fifth season under my management.

Anyhow, after I felt better I poured myself another glass of root beer, which I enjoyed thoroughly.

*end tangent*

So my empty cup of root beer is sitting here on my desk, just begging to be brought down to the kitchen for a washing. I will likely do this in a few minutes. I want to use up more plastic cups, but at the same time they are so small and inconvenient. I would have had to refill those little plastic cups about 5 times just to consume the amount of root beer I consumed in only two of these large non-disposable tumblers.

Until next time.

If you are ever at Fred Meyer in the organic section, or if you are interested in a 5-gallon keg size at Cost Plus World Market, one of the best root beer brands is "Virgil's"

I have a 5-gallon keg on my dresser that I've been saving for a kick-ass party that has yet to transpire, but it will one day.

Oh yes, and I hope to be a part of the 5-gallon kick-ass party, but realistically I bet I won't be. But I can always dream.

What I had posted BEFORE I posted the above comment, was that I have actually heard of Virgil's and that it is quality root beer.

I, on the other hand, was drinking not-so-quality (and hardly even root beer) Mug.

MUG = Malodorous Undrinkable Gruel

I searched long and hard in my thesaurus for an M-word.

At least with me out of the house, you can have some confidence that the pubes you're bending over are your own.

Yes but it was the downstairs bathroom, so I can't be fully confident that they were mine...
