Sitting here trying to think of a theme for the CoC isn't a great way to spend time that should be spent sleeping.

Time to start watching those possible clinchers, MLB.tv havers.
September 16, 2014: This Should be Interesting
I fell asleep yesterday at 10am and slept for three hours. The night had been short, but not that short. I form habits in a rush so here's hoping I'm not wrecked at work all day.
September 15, 2014: Wet Bison
My daughter got home from a weekend camping trip last night. I didn't realize a preteen girl could reek of sweat that much. It's kind of impressive.
Third Monday Movie Day
I spent a good part of this month on vacation or preparing for it. While on vacation, though, I took in some stuff.
Prometheus. Why is this movie so dull? Ridley Scott remembered to take a lot of pretty enough shots, but the story really takes its time, and the cast just doesn't become particularly engaging for the viewer, outside of lead actress Noomi Rapace and Idris Elba, who really can do no wrong. Also, clear this up for me: did people watch this whole movie unaware that it was a prequel? I remember hearing people say they were shocked by the ending setting up the Alien franchise, but I can't imagine being force-fed any more clearly. Maybe my memory on this is failing?
The only good thing I saw anytime recently was Django Unchained unless we add TV, and even that was pretty light of late.
What have you seen?

Just seeing if hungry joe's paying attention.
September 13, 2014: The End?
I really don't think I have the stomach for football anymore.
September 12, 2014: Conflict of Interest
Tonight Skim's school choir is singing the National Anthem at Chase Field and her church group is going camping. The only way for us to do both for her was to fix our van in time, and it's a complete beast and won't be done. Hard decisions now.
September 11, 2014: Towers
Thirteen years now. I remember thinking as a kid that Pearl Harbor was something too far removed to have any reality attached to it. In twenty years, we'll be the ones talking about the horror on this day to young folks who can't comprehend it.
September 10, 2014: No Rest
I've been back at work for two days and I really need a break. I really didn't have any rest days on that vacation.
