here we go

So a quick update on my life.  Had a sweet skin infection in early/mid September which shut me down for about 3 weeks.  Seriously, one day i could barely walk to due to the "area" being inflamed and extremely painful - not to mention it was in a fairly uncomfortable place on my leg/thigh.  Luckily my kick ass immune system finally beat it, with the assistance of some high dosage antibiotics and awesome pain pills.  This is the really the first time in my adult life that i've had something seriously wrong w/ me (outside of minor rotator cuff issues).   3 weeks w/ no alcohol, no physical activity, and basically no fun. 

But now i'm back.  Took Dad to the Colts game against Chiefs - his first experience at Lucas Oil Stadium...i think he enjoyed it, even though the game was a little dull....19-9, how many times do you see that as a final score for the NFL game?  

Heading to Georgia on Thursday (10/14) until Sunday for the annual "Act Like I'm Still in College Trip", which involves hanging around college bars on the beautiful campus of the University of Georgia, drinking way way way too much, tailgating for an SEC game, eating too many grilled/fried foods, and all foolishness that comes in between those things.   Convinced Andy to go w/ us this year, so he along w/ Scott making his second trip will hit the road (9 1/2 hour drive) down to Athens Georgia to meet up w/ my high school buddy, Craig Hisey.  Always fun! 

Gambling - been fairly decent the past month.  Great start to the NFL season, going 7-3 through 5 weeks.  Been playing a little more online poker lately w/ some of the free time I had due to my infection and that's been steady also. 

Final notes - season 3 of the Sons of Anarchy (FX) and the new Boardwalk Empire (HBO) have been awesome.  I've also been watching FX's new show, Terriers, and that's been good as well.  Very excited the MLB playoffs have started - already some great drama/moments!

My final thought - this song has been in my head for days for some reason, so naturally I felt like I needed to see the video, as well as share w/ all of you  Seriously, the hair styles in the 80's are fantastic - i really think I missed out since I was in my 1-9 years during that decade.  And doesn't the lead singer look a little like a young Paul McCartney or is that just me?
