Beaten Like a Rented Mule

I've been too busy lately and my arms/hands are all torn up with 'Tennis Elbow' aka lateral epicondylitis. It is painful to type, play guitar, or damn near anything else.

So as you may imagine, my sex life has suffered accordingly.

My penchant for self-flagellation, however, obviously endures.

It seems funny that I was happy to get 10,000 visits just a little while ago, and now it's already almost doubled. Makes me feel guilty for not babbling more.

There have been a few things I have wanted to vent my spleen about, but I also feel like I don't want to encourage what is already a dominant part of my personality.

Then again...

People who poison babies should die.

Well, that was quick.

I got to see Winsome during the holiday, and she is growing fast and getting cuter by the minute. Sidney keeps bugging me about my goddaughter needing a playmate.

Oh, for evanws: A godfather or godmother is someone who promises to always take care of a child that is not their own, for a family member or a very good friend. My own godmother is a family member, but I obviously am not related to my goddaughter. But her parents are my very, very, very good friends.

I am very honored that Sidney and Angie asked me to do this, and I promise Winsome will always be taken care of.

I picked up my Mobster suit. I can see myself in it, it's so shiny. It's great.

When I find a shirt that works with it, that's when, Peachey...

Rick has been killing me in the gym. But it's working. At least I am sore unto death, which he claims is a good thing.

I bought a lovely royal blue leg brace for my arm.

That's not a typo. I bought a size small knee brace that fits nicely around my arm. It's a longer version of the XL elbow compression sleeve.

Did you know one of the best new guitarists on earth is originally from Hong Kong? His name is Herman Li, and he plays in a band called Dragonforce. I am hardly a fan of their lyrics or vocals (which are so cliched and overwrought that they could make great Cantopop lyrics), but you can't deny that Herman is talented. He held a clinic in HK last year and I went. He held it in Cantonese, which was nice, too.

Tonight I will go see The Forbidden Legend: Sex and Chopsticks. Utter Cat III trash.

Sounds like me.

Libera tuam mentem; clunis tua sequitur
