I just got annoyed with work and decided to go for a walk. When I got to the front door it was snowing lightly these big flakes, in downtown Atlanta. I walked around in it for about ten minutes.
So nice and peaceful.

Dentist appointment went OK. One cavity, which he filled. I honestly don't know why, after 34 years on earth without a cavity, last year I started developing them all over. Theories abound, but the one I like the best is that my body chemistry has changed and turned my saliva acidic.
Same thing over here, never had a cavity in my life until this whole thing recently.
It's my lack of faith, I think.

My pal Kacy says "Face it, you're getting old" as the reason.
I'm still siding with acidic saliva.

I was hanging out with a bunch of old friends a few days ago, all my age and some even younger...I look around the room and I notice they are all quickly going grey, a couple are full on old man white bearded and a few are even starting to lose their hair altogether, big bald spots and receding hairlines.
Man, I'll take a few teeth falling out and a rapidly increasing beer gut before I'd take all that, no question. All things considered, I'm doing ok as far as the getting older thing goes. Can still get a boner and everything, no problem.

Might want to have a blood test.
I've been paranoid of TB since Mandroid 2.0 told me that basically everyone has it ever.

Don't even start with this shit, I know! I was out with old friends that I hadn't seen for a while and I saw first hand just how much we've aged.
Anyway on with the Details from the day.....
Sumo:
The Emperors Cup has begun in Tokyo(Hatsu Basho 2008.) My fantasy league is in shambles as some "Ozeki" ranked wrestlers and a few other favorites are sucking it up this tournament.
Other than that, I'm enjoying the tournament as usual and scouting some new hopefuls. I'll be seeing them this summer in Nagoya. I can't wait!

So I have to write a poem for my Creative Writing class. This is what I came up with. We had to repeat a line or scheme and title it something we picked out of a hat. I chose the word "Saunter."
Sting.
Near perfect January.
Come, at odds with variations.
I miss gears, travelling
In my cobalt blue steel shell,
Windshield feigning frost.
Squinted eyes of a human hermit crab.
I venture, noble sans intentions.
Symmetric to ghosts that accompany, never haunt.
Scratch of pencils, graphite slow strokes shine.
Electronic blips, as beautiful as sirens seizing
traffic. Stapling veins of sunlight against
defensive corners of horizons.
Symmetric to oceans that recede, never pause.
Attention all! This may be the best dark roast
for marrow-deficient mornings. Crooked posture in plastic seats.
The tongue applauds the sweetness like hands would
high black boot heel clicks on the pavement.
Legs lengthy and ready, wrapping tightly contemplated
in the hunchbacked shadows of buildings
downtown.
Symmetric to dreaming children that fail, never fly.
Time being. Imagine being time!
Constant, evasive, fleeting, full,
hole-punched page currency, adorned with weeping queens,
monuments, thieves.
Symmetric to maps that lead, never mark.
Comfortable in only one cave.
No choice, forced;
I suppose this skin is fine,
if not I’ll age and sew
until lips and teeth fit.
Salty gums, dirty mouth,
I’d quit smoking if I could
keep breathing fire.
Symmetric to the path that circles, never straightens.
Symmetric to the gait that limps, never hurries.
Symmetric to the glow that fades, never lasts.
Rip, roll, pull, drag, draw, BANG…And saunter on.
Thoughts?

Smoking will especially exacerbate these circumstances. My fiance's friend from this
detail looked to be in her mid 40s. She is 30 and smokes like a chimney. But yeah, I recently went to a wedding with many high school friends and everyone is one step closer to the grave than we used to be. So weird.

I usually imagine David Foley as the A.T. & Love boss re-enacting these scenarios.
Salut.
I've always imagined him to look like this:
he's not nearly as handsome as lumberg.
