Times when you just want to be alone...

And someone shows up unannounced and bugs the hell out you. They don't even have to say anything, you just wanted to be by yourself and they ruined it. you don't dislike them, could be family, but they messed up your moment and it pisses you off. You feel bad later for being kind of standoffish while they were visiting. Ever have those moments?? well, i just did. i was a bit of an asshole, but i wanted to be alone... Ill apologize later.

Every year around my Birthday!

In 1994 I had tried to call my Mother back in Indiana. I tried all day Tuesday and all day Wednesday with no luck. My mom was 68 years old, and drove and was active in her church and substitute taught, so she was quite busy. But it, wasn't like her to go somewhere and not tell me.

When I got home that Wednesday evening from work, I tried her a few more times. Finally I got worried, and I called the Sheriff's department in my home town. I explained the situation to them and asked if they would send someone around to check on her. Fortunately my Mom taught Jr. High history forever. Luck had it that one of her students were now on the Sheriff's Dept and he said that he would be happy to go and check on her.

I called back to her house around 9:00 at night and a guy answered the phone. As soon as he answered the phone and told me his name, I knew it wasn't good news. (It was the coroner!)

Here's the time line. My Mom died on Tuesday morning. My Birthday was that Saturday and Mother's Day was that Sunday!

I drove home and took care of all the details about her funeral. Paid her bills, met with her lawyer and Funeral home director, everything. I returned home the week after Mother's day. What was waiting in my mail when I came home? A Birthday card from her!

So now I prefer to be by myself or at least be able to go into a funk around Mother's Day and my Birthday.

I know, 16 years and I should be able to get over it! My ex-fiancée always told me to "suck it up!"

For the past two weeks or so, my bro has come over every single friggin night or day. It's driving me crazy. He came by 3 times yesterday. Why? So he can check his facebook on my computer.

I pissed him off last night. I bought me a new Sims game, and I was playing it. He kept saying he just wanted to check his messages and hovering over me. I told him I wanted to play my game, he had been over twice already to use the computer, and for him to go to best buy and buy him a laptop. He got all pissed off and announced he was leaving.

This need comes over me suddenly and without warning. Yesterday the fiancee and kids were going to lunch with her family, I knew I was getting in a mood so went off and did some errands, then spent time in the kitchen making stuffed manicotti, which is a great solo task that requires a little concentration and attention to detail, perfect for getting the antisocial part of my personality sated. Got some music going and a very minor buzz, and everything worked out great.

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
