two dolla

as long as it’s gone by march

There are a few things that may have transpired this weekend that could be to blame as a source of my continuing cough and runny nose. Sharing drinks with my plague-infested friends, making out with more than one person, not wearing a coat Friday night – yeah, I think any one of those three things could be the cause.

I went to urgent care last week (hey, it’d been like two months!) because I haven’t been able to shake the same cough I’ve had since early December. The solution was prescription cough syrup with Codeine I was only to take at night. I didn’t fill it, because I’m coughing all day and Nyquil solves the problem overnight. I may be going back to see my friends there sometime, because really I need this mucous-producing, smoker’s cough to come to an end.

See what happens when I spend the day not leaving my apartment? I have to talk to someone and the Internet is my someone.

where i introduce you to lounge music

I’m sure you will all agree that I don’t have the best taste in music. I’ve never been ashamed of that or tried to deny it, because it’s just kind of impossible when it’s as obvious as it is.

I was out Friday night and heard the song Baby Got Back. Only it wasn’t the regular Baby Got Back; it was the lounge singer version… by Richard Cheese. Here it is on YouTube. Totally worth it.

Equally as funny? His remake of Gin and Juice.

If I wasn’t on The Great Budget Watch of 2007, I would be purchasing every CD he’s ever made, because who doesn’t love a) lounge music and b) leopard skin jackets? I, however, have a week long cruise to take in a little over two months and need to make sure my money bags are full for the Eastern Caribbean islands.

random bits of sunday

Since I let Google run every other aspect of my life, I thought it’d probably be a good idea to make the jump over to Google Reader. This marks the 3rd time I’ve attempted to make the change from Bloglines, so we’ll see if it takes this time around.

My co-worker/buddy Mike is at the Saints/Bears game today. He’s a huge Saints fan, so I’ve been trying to spot him, but of course to no avail. He dropped $1200 on two tickets and he seemed to be completely okay with that. I hope he’s having $1200 worth of fun.

I’m still working on a complete Vegas recap. I’ve had to ask a few questions to make sure my recount accurate. I don’t know if I should be proud of that or a bit embarassed.

I had a really awesome weekend and I really want to share details, but my parents read this and really the details I want to share are completely not parent-appropriate. You’ll just have to trust me when I say it was really awesome. I may be able to drum up some pictures from various people that might show a small bit of the awesome.

The only thing I hate about this layout is that if I make an unordered list, it doesn’t put dots out in front of the items for me. I’m sure there’s a way I could manually change that, but I’m too busy napping on the couch to be bothered by that.
