It's been a long time, I shouldn't have left you, without a funny blog to laugh to...

Sorry friends, I didn't realize we were going on a week without a blog so this one will be extended.

Last weekend I learned a very valuable lesson about why most of my friends that run marathons, do triathlons, and are generally healthier than I am don't drink as much, dehydration. I decided that it would be a good idea to go workout for two hours (drinking water while doing that), come home, shower, grab a glass of water, and then go out to celebrate two birthdays. I paid dearly for it Sunday when it felt like my ribs were cramping all day due to dehydration, but I couldn't keep the water down. Lesson learned.

Quick piece of advice for anyone heading to Thailand in the near future. Don't go by boat. Apparently their government is taking all the refugees that come from Myanmar, putting them back in their boats, and dragging them back out to sea. wild.

I've been on training the last three days, so I haven't been able to stay up on the news or what is really going on in the world, but how about Joe Torre agreeing to participate in a book ripping the Yankees. Ballsy my friend.

Congratulations to Greg for winning his office Biggest Loser competition with some ridiculous weight loss over the past few months. Notice I had to clarify that it was weight loss as some others have asked him why he would tell people what a dork he is.

I'm off to see Dierks Bentley, Brad Paisley, and Darius Rucker (AKA Hootie) tonight in Moline. Should be entertaining to drive three hours across flat land and see what a group of people from Western Illinois and Iowa bring to a country concert. Awesome.

Tomorrow is the annual celebration of Joe-ma's mom's birthday in South Bend. Should be a classic time. Past years have resulted in a few hookups for members of the celebration. Top honors going to Los De #2 for finding a MILF who already had a hotel room downtown one year.

Super Bowl Sunday will be filled with Youth Basketball and then rooting for the Cardinals. I get it, the Steelers will probably win, but who doesn't want to see Kurt Warner in a Rascal Scooter getting the Championship trophy and Larry Fitzgerald and Lil' Wayne having a "Dread-off" at the 50 yard line!?
