OOF!

Last night was supposed to be the BIG game between the Fighting Irish of NOTRE DAME and LSU. Now anyone who knows anything about me knows how much I hate NOTRE DAME. Why? Because there's such a bias on their behalf that it sickens me. Forever overhyped, it seems that they can do no wrong, even when they are horrible. I put them in the special category with DUKE University basketball and the DALLAS COWBOYS; universally overhyped teams.

So of course, the fans of the Irish were out and about with their little jerseys, talking crap about how they are going to win one "for the Gipper" and how they should have been considered for the National Championship. HA! Give me a break. While i'll admit that they had a good season, they were far from good enough to meet the real America's Team, the Buckeyes of THE Ohio State University. And last night simply proved my point as LSU put on a clinic and sent the boys from South Bend, Indiana home with their tail between their legs. 41-14.

Go back to the drawing board, boys.....

It's January and for me, that means "No-Juice January", my yearly ritual of going dry for the month. After weeks of festive eating and drinking, this is way overdue. Basic premise is simple: No alcohol consumption for the month of January. This ritual was started by THE DON years ago and I sort of adapted for myself. It kinda reminds me of Morgan Spurlock's TV series, 30 Days, where each week he finds himself doing something for thirty days, for the experience of it; One episode may feature him giving up fast foods; Another episode may feature him living life as an immigrant. In my case, it allows me to "detox", so to speak. And at the end of the month, good stuff.

What would you be willing to give up for 30 days if you had the chance? More importantly, would you be able to stick it out? That's the big question.....

OH and on a side note: My moles tell me that NY METS outfielder/phenom LASTINGS MILLEDGE will be traded to Oakland for starting pitcher JOE BLANTON. You heard it here folks. ;)

I'm going on day number three. Thought it would be tougher, but then again, Friday is just a day away. Fuck.

The problem is that if I don't drink, I also don't score...they go hand in hand.

But what if you drink but don't score anyways?

I'm masturbating right now...and it feels so wrong!

Mahogany, there's only one thing I can suggest for you: Chasity Belt, and throw away the key!

Daddy, I figure I will be a raving bitch for the month of Jan with no way to umm...release stress. Chasity belt isn't needed. I went 11 months before (that was last year) I can go a month this year. Anyhow I have a lot of books I want to read and a HUGE pile of clothes to fold in my basement. I think the only think that will be hard is no masturbations. I mean I masturbate everyday, twice at day, sometimes three times a day and now I can't. Lord help me.
