Sorry, no blog tonight.
I’m going to see AC/DC at the Honda Center.
My friend and I are going to go for a massage first (to get all loose for Anus, I mean, Angus), and then eat BBQ, and then go to the show.
I’m not going to eat BBQ beans though – I don’t want my american [...]

Myrtle likes herself some fancy root beer.
I usually get the Dog’s N’ Suds (my favorite), but I thought I’d try out a different one to see if it could kick The Pup’s ass.
So in this fight we have the returning champion, Dog’s N’ Suds, versus Berghoff.

I’ve always loved Downtown Las Vegas.
It started when I was a kid. My parents took us to Vegas one summer and I whined that I wanted to see the “Cowboy Sign from the U2 video”.
I love it because it’s the only bit of “old school” Las Vegas left.
I love it because everything is right there [...]

I’m fucking sick of being sick. I’d rather be injured, because at least when you’re injured, you get “pills”. Myrtle loves taking said “pills” while watching The Gong Show. But unlike the Isley Brothers, I’m not contagious – it’s just my allergies. So lucky me, I get to rub my nose raw and hock loogies [...]

I think I’m getting sick, but I hope it’s just allergies from the dust of moving shit at work.
So guess what? Myrtle is a SNOB now! Actually, I’ve always had a cultured intellectual side that I’ve always been embarrassed to show, but now it will be shown against my will. If you’re a loyal reader [...]

I need to get married ASAP.
Well, not ASAP. By 2010.
Hopefully on 09/09/09. Yes, I’m a 16 year old boy at heart.

I’m so not on my game.
I’m in Fresno right now and we were in this ghetto thrift store downtown and they had a fucking DOUCHE BAG for sale, and it was laying out there with the original box and everything. Hot water bottle my ass……
And I forgot to take a picture of said douche bag. [...]

On January 18th, I will once again be making a weekend trip to The Big No, to visit a good friend of mine. And to go record shopping. I’m on the hunt for a specific album, and you know how us Music Snobs will travel to the ends of the earth for a certain record.

I thought that since the end of the year is upon us, I would do a bit of reflecting. Not so much for you, but for me. Yes me, fuckers – after all, the blog is called “Meat is Myrtle”, not “Meat is Assholes on WordPress”.
So overall, I think 2007 was a pretty [...]
