I was in a pretty major car accident over the summer, got a little banged up and had to take some time away from what my normal routine would consist of.  I took off my shirt tonight to take a shower, and I noticed that I'm gaining weight.  Ohfuckmeohno.  I've been really bad about going to the gym since the accident and my diet has slipped pretty badly since the semester started.  Time for oatz and squatz again.

Anybody else have an "ohfuckmeohno" moment?  I'd love to hear about them.

ALSO Today, October 22nd:
-Daniel Boone's birthday
-Sam Houston inaugurated as the 1st President of the Republic of Texas!  Aw yeah.
-Harry Houdini got knocked the fuck out!
-International Stuttering Awareness Day:  tell all of your non-stuttering friends how much you appreciate their support, but try to do it in less than ten minutes

Maybe I'm getting old...

I'm 26, in good shape, doing well in school, I'm working full time, and am leading a pretty decent life.  Looking back, however, I realize that there must have been some point at which I became terrible at games.  In Street Fighter 2, I would poop on any challenger.  Never used a continue in any game.  Now, I do nothing but get pooped on.  In games, too.  When I went into GameStop on a whim the other day and saw the newest Castlevania, my heart soared.  Ever since Simon's Quest, Castlevania had always been my favorite franchise.  I raced home, fired up my PS3 for the second time since 2007, and promptly got my ass handed to me.

FIRST.

Nobody will really see this as it's the first post of a new blog, but we should all remember that today, October 17th, is the 196th anniversary of the London Beer Floods.  To all those who died in the hundreds of thousands of gallons of beer coursing through the streets of London, you are not forgotten!
