Payday! That is all about work.

I am consistently beyond disappointed that one of my longest listened too and formerly favorite podcasts has taken on a host I can not stand to listen too. The topics are still interesting but Chris just sucks the life out of me every time I hear his voice and he is deferred to by the other hosts because he is a longtime reader and owns a comic shop. The others are all braves and view him as the chief to follow whenever he hosts and I wish anyone else would be on instead of him. Oh well on to the next show.

The NHL has far more of a stranglehold on their media rights then is necessary. They should allow fans the freedom of purchasing team only plans. Gary Bettman is an ass.

So far this season Chef Teri and I have watched every period of Pens hockey this season. Last nights game is buggin me because we didn't catch any of it. Arrrrrr I've got to find a way to watch it before Sunday night.

Lookin froward to salad tonite.

I hope we can get in the entire Pens game before Grimm and Constantine if not no bed until all is watched.

Yes game watched in 135 minutes. I now wish I could find all the games in that format but it would mean waiting a day to do it and that's not as cool as fiction shows.

Editing and posting Dance Fevre 156.

This morning seems to be going by horribly slowly.

Dinner was a 'quickie' steak quesadilla that was excellent. Chef Teri can prepare good food off the top of her head and with week of planning it doesn't really seem to matter.

The salsa lessons were greatly disappointing to me as I found that I either lack Latino coordination of am horribly uncoordinated period.

The music and group Lanzallamos was great I we had a great time. The Room Upstairs is a cool get away in our area and I really want to take advantage more often.

Homemade casidilla burgers lat night and Chef Teri has a long term winner with that recipe.

It seems the NCAA is letting up on athletes making money while in college. That's a good thing it's their likeness and livelihood who's business is it other then theirs. Their name and likeness is their brand.

I need to watch some MMA I'm starting to need a fix.

I feel really excited to drop more posts on my new Xmen blog. Unabashed Xfan. I think the nomenclature is an idex blog. I'm going to read books and give my thoughts on them. Nothing special. It would be cool to get folks to comment but I haven't really told anyone about it so that would be hard to happen. I have also started Widow's Bite: A Marvel Black Widow Read Along Blog, Thousands To Read and Not Enough Time and Imag(i)Nation. It seems a lot but basically they are all there just for my to drop my thoughts as I read-reread X-men, Image Comics, Black Widow and older books.

It's disappointing when the purveyor of all that is both trendy and useless in BFE (Walmart) doesn't carry a 33 inch metal replacement zipper. I'm getting closer and closer to just doing all my shopping at Amazon, because they tend to carry what I need, brick and mortar not so much.

I started yet another comic book index blog last night. This one so I can put down my thoughts on re-reading the Uncanny X-men from Giant Size on through. I guess these blogs are my way of talking about the books that I like even though it's a very one sided conversation.

Again someone on Facebook who is not a christian but probably would say they have 'read' the bible is using old testament scripture to support their non christian contention. If they had 'read' the bible they would understand as do real Christians that we are not bound by the old testament covenant that we have a new one as of the Crucifixion of Christ.

You post something and then when folks start discussing what you posted you delete it saying you never argue about it. What the fuck is the point of all that? Get some damn balls of move to the side!

After some rough going early and unreliable play from Fleury they spotted him the 6+ goals he needs to win.

Two hundred seventy five

Highlight of the week looks to  be a possible trip to a local joint to catch a professional salsa band play, we'll see.

Dinner with Mike was as pleasant a time as the three of us has had together. The meal was decent also. Overpriced for takeaway but good otherwise.

Fish en papiote for dinner and then chocolate pudding and whipped topping fro dessert, yummmmm.

Doing the Dancing with the Stars thing while working on a couple comic book blogs. Probably will finish up the night.

Gameday this morning running while my body tries to convince me that Campestre is not the type of cuisine it appreciates me ingesting.

Now trying to figure out what I want to do. Read for tonites podcast, read for one of several index blog I'm playing with, read a novel and try to finish it up, nothing but watch TV...decisions, decisions, decisions

Wow had a long discussion of our sons when the ex stopped by the apartment after going to a local church. Will wonders never cease.

Hopefully Chef Teri and my plans to have dinner with my oldest son Mike will still go through. He has proven so far in his young life to be painfully unreliable.

Looks like my fantasy football team may pull one out

Steelers won and my fantasy team for all intents and purposes did not.

Dinner and after with Mike went very well.

Two hundred seventy three

Lots to do today. Tires for the car which included an updated membership to SAMS club and and hour and a half walkthru for an additional $--- spent on items we needed.(?)

Then a top at JoAnnes Fabrics to see if they had the appropriate zipper I need to fix my favoritest jacket ever that Chef Teri got for me.

Then time at a local scifi convention celebrating it's 33 year, our first visit.

Late lunch early dinner that concludes our out time now time to get home and watch WVU play.

WVU won as did the Pens so it turned out to be a pretty good sports day for us. As did Concord University, Marshal University and Clemson University.

Two hundred seventy two

Starting with last night we have a weekend of plans being altered against what we want.

First my youngest wants to change his schedule with us this weekend, then Chef Teri has work stuff both today and tomorrow. Being the 'nice guy' sure can suck at times.

Listening to MMA Hour I can tell I am loosing interest in MMA. Especially since it's been almost a year since I was researching for my podcast. A weekly show was lots of work and I did it for about a year and a half before flaming out. Now it juts too much to keep up with and too many shows I can't watch legally. I can't wait until this Fox contract is over and then maybe it will be interesting again. Too watered down at this point especially with so many fighters being injured.

This season it looks like I may dig that deeply into the Pens as I have a blog following them this season, we'll see how that plays out. I'm great with ideas but my follow through notoriously sucks.

Sorry we missed the TUF 20 episode to watch that paltry showing by the Pens. My favorite female fighter fought and won, gotta grab that one.

So far the Pens are up 3-1. Greiss is doing an excellent job. Well until allowing 2 goals in 2 1/2 minutes. Shit!!!

I'll read about this shit in the morning.

Got a question from a high school acquaintance over Facebook asking if I had any ideas for comic books for her 10 year old son. Seems she wants to encourage him to read more then he does. Doesn't seem that he isn't into any of the major properties floating around right now.  I'll flip through Previews tonite and see what I can come up with.

Had a killer flank steak soft taco thingy from Chef Teri. I was really good. I'm very fortunate Chef Teri is as gifted as she is in that whole cooking thing. My fat ass doesn't exercise at all so any weight I loose has been do to diet.

Watched the Pens loose, that was fun.

Night all.

Two hundred seventy

Early morning for Chef Teri's procedure.

All went well. Now just chillin around the apartment.

Cheated breakfast and dinner from our low carb thing but given recent results a slip now and then is ok.

Z Nation is kinda better then The Walking Dead. I don't think they take themselves quite as seriously. I think maybe TWD had become unto a TV death dirge, slowly plodding along to nowhere.

We got all of our dancing watched now I just need to motivate to  record. Not feelin it right now.

Two hundred sixty nine.

So begins the day of my wife's clean colon...weeeeeeee.

Quiet day watching Mountain Monsters, In Search of Aliens and reading comics.

Man when my ex interacts with me about our youngest son I have no idea whom to believe. They both lie.

Time for a little Dancing with the Stars action.

Two hundred sixty eight

Lazy day watchin football and readin comics. Nice day.

Two hundred sixty seven

Breakfast burrito to start off the day.

College Gameday in the background as I read some marvel comics .

WVU Baylor looks to be a shoot out. Three minutes in and already 7-7.

Two hundred sixty six

Spent one and a half hours trimming through over six years of likes and follows on Facebook trying to pare down the chaff in my daily feed. Let's see if it works or it just turns out to be the uselessness of the folks I follow who post frequently.

Two episodes of Mountain Monsters, a kick ass dinner and the first episode of the new season of The Walking Dead to start off the evening.

Ok I have never heard of a man named Herbal. I wonder if that's because he is part Cherokee?

Two hundred sixty five

Enterovirus, ebola being airbourne, Putin threatening nuclear destabilization, the Euro is struggling as are most economies in Europe and the DOW dropping like a rock in water. Not sure but things don't seem to being going well in a general sense. Although the Royals made the World Series for the first time in 29 years.

I believe I have come to the last of my level headedness over the fact that fuckers who work out at a nearby crossfit place feel they can park where ever the fuck they want. I'm about to up my nastiness over the whole damn thing.

Solid dinner out but nothing spectacular. The best part was that Chef teri didn't feel like cooking and so she didn't.

Now Pens and Attack on Titan time.

Pens lose. They didn't deserve to win giving up 2 goals in the last 3 minutes of the game. I swear Fleury can only when blowouts and is just not built to win close games. He is, has been and will be a mediocre goalie who has benefited playing behind Crosby and Malkin.

Two hundred sixty four

Work.......

Listening to the Wall Street Journal's podcast cover the government's work on Ebola is a joke...the government not the WSJ.

I'm really conflicted as to what to tell my youngest son about some issues that have caused him to run afoul of his mother and accepted local morality. In another couple years I know my answers will be decidedly different then they are now. Does that make me hypocritical?

I have been following and participating in various ebook bundle programs. The first was Humble Bundle and now I have purchased my second Story Bundle for Urban Fantasy. Cool ideas for very little money.

Mighty Thorcast Special episode in the can now to post produce it and last night's Dance Fevre and see if I can't get them both out. Done

Now to finish with Rivalry Night on NBCSN Detroit at Boston and sundry other.

Two hundred sixty three

Did get to work this morning. I was right I didn't miss it in the least.

I'm bored. Work, podcasts...I think comics. Maybe lots I'm doing because I have for so long and not really because I enjoy it. Might nee to sit down and reassess.

Finished watching Strictly Come Dancing and recorded Dance Fevre. Gonna finish up the evening 's entertainment with an episode of Mountain Monster the one that started it all.

Two hundred sixty two

Took the day off from work for the holiday and spent it recording, editing and posting 8 episodes of Lords of Order. Set up the release to finish out the year.

Now if I can just do a similar thing with Ronin Rabbit and get it back in order.

Watched part of Strictly Come Dancing and then switched to Dancing with the stars to finish out the evening.

Two hundred sixty one

NFL Gameday this Morning to start of NFL Sunday. Another one of my horses in Fantasy Football has been ruled out today. That's two of my three big dogs this week I need some B listers to step up.

It is really a chore this season to watch the Steelers. Not fun at all but I guess being a fan I should support their total shit team.

Almost caught up on my Marvel reading should finish tomorrow as I am taking the holiday off from work.

Gotta note up for the Marvel Bronze Age recording tonite.

Two hundred sixty

Eventful morning. The trials of being  parent.

Man I missed placing an August comic order and it looks like virtually everything I order all cam out with and issue or volume that month. Dang getting that stuff is gonna be a bitch now.

WVU struggling as usual. At least I have comics to read.

WVU won so that's cool now after a little TV shuffle it's time for the Pens.

Two hundred fifty nine

It's Friday so that's good.

Chris just cancelled the BOOM! Addiction podcast. Seems life won't allow him to put the time into it he wants to.

Imagine the limpest most uncrunchy snack chip you have ever eaten and that is how I feel about my job. STALE!!

I miss the kind of life I felt I had in academia. Perhaps I did miss out on not going on to teach college somewhere and maybe I can start to move that way in another year or so. Some of the absolute horror stories I have heard about adjunct make me apprehensive. Rather I'll just be a student forever taking classes.

I went to CU and participated in Dr Manzo's Geography career day. It was cool to be back in that capacity. I enjoyed.

Tonite the Pens kick off their 2014-15 campaign at home against the Anaheim Ducks. Made 4 fantasy roster moves that finalized this morning and found out I am 12th out of 12 for waiver preference. Picked 10 in the draft and 12th for the waiver wire. Seems like getting anyone but sleepers is going to be by sheer luck this season.

I have already more or less given up on my fantasy football team when the first week I had 8 of 12 players get injured and 3 being horses.

Just rejected my first trade request of the fantasy hockey season.

Pasta for dinner, chocolate pudding for desert and Pens for the show. My baby making fun of me makes it complete.

Two hundred fifty seven

The first 4 games of the 2014-15 NHL season go off tonite. My fantasy team is ready. 4 waiver wire moves set for tomorrow and one for next week.

Looks like we are doing some Christmas shopping tonite.

No BOOM! Addiction recording tonite, had an interview setup but...what the hell ever.

Damn I dig the sounds of hockey after 4 months of nothing.

My Podfather made a call for assistance on Facebook today, had to come in heavy. Glad we were able to.

Ordered my newest collecting obsession for Christmas, Oyo.

Two hundred fifty six

Always fun starting off an eight hour day of doing things you really don't want to do by asking someone to do their job and being sorely disappointed.

Shit on again off again BOOM! recording is really a pisser.

I really have a hankerin to re-read the late 80's early 90's X books. I wonder if I have room to add that to me schedule?

Coolness, likes like Chef Teri and I are planning a couple cool days in Charlotte near the end of November. Hope everything stays cool till then.

Dance Fevre in the can and episodes of Reign and Forever watched.

Two hundred forty five

I'm really looking forward to hearing a female talk about Outlander in an intelligent, thoughtful manner rather then the wet panty, you ain't never way that all I have heard so far do. The unfortunate thing is that those discussions will never be taken seriously when you fan gush all over it.

Listening to comic book geeks discuss comic book movies is just short of painful to me. Those conversations usually embody most everything I dislike about others opinions.

A wonderful dinner of Quesdilla burgers from Chef Teri and the first episode of this weeks Strictly Come Dancing.

Next up will be podcast editing while watching this week's Dancing with the Stars. Emerald Archer and The Mighty Thorcast.

Busy night so far, draft time. It sucked hard. Started out too low for my taste and too many on autodraft killed any plans I had. Oh well it will be what it is.

Two hundred forty four

After some adult time and a yummy breakfast I sit watching NFL Gameday Morning organizing my online day and it all involves comic books.

I'm really looking forward to the start on the Penguins season, the Steelers are not overly enjoyable this season. They lost to the worst team in the NFL last week and are not looking good against the worst this week.

Now I have an episode of The Mighty Thorcast in the can to edit as well as an Emerald Archer. I really dig podcasting but man producing is really the pits.

Kinda big news in the comic book world about Fantastic Four today. Rumored earlier but pretty much confirmed today.

Nice phat chef salad for dinner. I dug it!

Two hundred forty three

I wonder if there will ever be a time when waking up in the mornings is not a chore?

Gettin things in place to record Emerald Archer and hopefully several Lords of Order.

'sniff' 'sniff'  I love the smell of College Gameday in the morning.

Low carb busting breakfast of biscuits and gravy and apple butter this morning. Gotta take a break sometimes.

Recorded a podcast with the offspring.

Plenty of football today now some UFC.

Pay day, the only day that makes work worthwhile.

Nice low carb dinner at Outback and then how for some leaded raspberry coffee for dessert.

Now the Louisville/Syracuse game on till Bellator starts.

Gonna play with some blogs tonite too.

Dinner was very good given our current restrictions.

Edited and posted a Dance Fevre and Marvel Bronze Age, now if I can only get us back on Track with the Thorcast. We have the materials for 3 or 4 shows right now.

Watching the season finale of The Lottery, Scorpion, Red Band Society and NCIS New Orleans.

Finished up watching Strictly Come Dancing episode 2 from season 12, TUF season 20 episode 3 Outlander episode 8 and finished up with TUF season 20 episode 4.

Wow I can't believe how angry watching Black Jack Randhal was making me on Outlander. I was literally going to turn it off if he did what he was threatening.

Two hundred thirty nine

Work...yeah.

Had a killer lasagna-esque dish with eggplant substituted for the pasta and it RAWKED!!!! My wife is a cook beyond description for me. The time and energy she puts into planning and executing meals is simple outstanding. I am one lucky eater.

Watched some Strictly Come Dancing and then got ready to record BOOM! Addiction only to have a computer malfunction that cancelled the recording. Found out it was a simple selection on Skype I had now idea how it became unselected.

Two hundred thirty eight

I think weekends are too short and work weeks are to long. Overall too much time is spent making an amount of money that in all likelyhood will be too little to live the kind of life one wants.

Got some hockey cards today, I now need to sleeve them.

Need to edit and post the MBA recording from last night. Watch Dancing with the Stars. Watch Two episodes of Strictly Come Dancing. Read books for BOOM! Addiction recording tomorrow night. Catch up up some other TV shows so as not to fall behind like last fall. Then many other projects of those above are finished.
