HUH?

I'm okay with abreviations for some things, like titles and names.  I can't even understand half of the stuff I read on message boards online.  IMHO, LOL, WTF, etc.  (Did you like that etc?)  Anyways.  It takes me about 5 minutes to figure out what these things even mean.  I know I'm aging pretty quickly here.  I realize I'm almost 30, but come on.  What is the world coming to?  GALP (I just made that one up, Get A Life People).  Maybe that one will catch on. 

False Hope

January weather is brutal.  You don't know if it's going to snow or be 50 degrees.  That's why I think winter weather always gives us false hope that spring is right around the corner.  You get a couple of nice days and think about how great it is outside and of all the projects you've got to do.  I would almost rather it just stay cold until March.  Then suddenly it would be 50 or 60 degrees everyday.  That would be great.

Billboards

I always laugh when I see billboards on the highway.  It's not like we can stop what we are doing and right down the phone number or directions to the nearest Motel 6.  Why do they even have billboards?  I know the obvious answer, but what is really the point?  They are distracting, hardly ever informative, and usually an eye sore.  Who cares?  Well I guess I do, but I'm not quite sure why.

Bad Weather Reports

I think being a weather guy would be a tough job.  Sort of.  I mean you can be wrong most of the time and still call yourself an expert.  That would be sweet.  But what I hate is when they are way off and you have already planned for it.  Like when they say it will 55 and you wear your light jacket and it ends up being 28.  That's not cool.  Come on weather guy.

Healthy Food

Most of the time I don't like a lot of real healthy food.  It's not like I eat cheeseburgers and pizza everyday, but some of that stuff is nasty.  It is always a nice surprise when you eat something healthy and it actually tastes good.  Maybe my tastebuds have been trained to like the greasy, unhealthy stuff.  I have gotten a little more adventurous with my eating lately.  More fruits and veggies.  Geez, am I getting old or what?

Nap Time

I wonder why companies don't implement a mandatory afternoon nap policy.  Think about how much more productive everyone would be.  Our bodies and brains are always refreshed after a little nap.  Just a 30 minute snooze would be sufficient.  It's been proven scientifically that a few minutes of rest in the afternoon help our brains recharge and get a needed rest in the middle of the day.  Go ask your boss about it and see if you can implement a little rest period every afternoon.  It's worth a shot.

Stupid Cold

Thats the only way to describe the weather right now.  It is stupid cold.  When the wind is blowing over 25 MPH and the actual temperature is below zero, we should spend the day at home in front of the fireplace.  No one should have to work (except maybe pizza delivery guys) on days like this.  Who is really out doing things on days like this?  It is stupid.  And cold.  It is stupid cold. 

Cold Weather = Pee

Like its not bad enough for people with small bladders.  Take a few sips of a cold beverage in the wintertime and BAM, nature calls.  I think winter weather causes me to pee like 2 or 3 times more often than in warmer weather.  Come on.  It's a good thing my desk is about 10 feet from the bathroom.  I bet I lose weight in the wintertime with how much I pee.  Geez, what a pisser.

2010

It's my first post of 2010.  That just looks weird.  Getting through the holidays is always an adventure and usually pretty busy.  A new year is always a fresh start.  A time to recharge and look at your goals again.  I always like looking at each year from the beginning and seeing what things I want to accomplish this year.  Some goals stay the same year after year and some change as we get older.  Its all part of the game.
