If you are a regular reader of this blog then you know that I am a gamer, have been ever since I can remember. I also have been playing online ever since I laid my hands on COD 4 thanks to my brother and nephew. Well, on November 9th Call of Duty: Black Ops came out, my brother and I left at about 11:45 pm on a cold windy night and stood in line, check the semi blurry pic below taken with my G1, to get it and have been playing it ever since.
That first night of gaming was pretty bad, the online gameplay was laggy with a lot of connection problems that sometimes led to frozen screens that could only be fixed by turning off the game. The lag has been fixed in my opinion but the other problems remain, not as bad as before but still annoying. Here is hoping that the remaining problems are fixed as soon as possible.
Man oh man, I don’t even remember the last time that I had the flu but it has been a while, more than a year I would say. So there I was playing Call of Duty: Black Ops, more on that on a different post, last Friday night when my throat started to hurt and immediately I knew that I was going to get sick and sure enough by Saturday the hurt was on. I am being a good boy, as usual, so I have been taking my medicine and will be taking it every four hours as directed by the label. Hopefully I will be fine sooner than soon because being sick just plain sucks.

The 2009 MLS season is history and this Sunday I will be watching MLS Cup 2010 between FC Dallas 12-4-14 50 points and the Colorado Rapids 12-8-10 46 points, congratulations to both teams for making it to the big party.
So come this Sunday check ESPN or Galavision for local times. The game will take place in Toronto at BMO field. And now it’s time for what you’ve been waiting for, my prediction, I have been pretty good at predictions as you know. Anyway, I predict that the FC Dallas will win their first MLS Cup this year.
My dad and I had to run some errands for my sister yesterday and as a result of that I ended up going to bed at 11:30 pm, yes, you read that right, 11:30pm. We were up at 5 am and were not finished until 3:30 pm, when it was all said and done we had driven to Burbank and back a total of four times.
I was so tired and I have no one to blame but myself, if I had gotten any sleep the previous day I would have been ok but that was not the case. I played MW2 until about 3am and then just laid down in bed reading instead of getting some sleep. That is the last time that I do that………………………………..yeah right!.

So The Amazing Race 17 is in full swing, have I ever mentioned that in my opinion it is the best reality TV show on the planet?, and I am already out. My last team was eliminated last week and that means that I finish 5th this season. For the rest of the season I have to put up with everybody else giving me such a good time for my early departure, yep.

I am pretty sure that by now you have heard or read about how much teens text, the average being 3,339 texts a month. I read that article and was not surprised or shocked at all for the following reason. About a week prior to that article I was having a conversation with my sister when the topic changed to her phone bill.
She then showed me just how many texts my nephew had sent and the number really and I mean really surprised me. The number was more than 12,000 texts!, yes, you read that right. At the time she asked me to take a picture but I passed on the opportunity and when I asked her again for the bill so I could take a picture to show you it was too late, she had already shredded it, just our luck.
A long time ago in a galaxy far away I used to have, I still have it by the way, a windows phone, my Motorola Q Global and I loved it. Currently I own a G1 that runs the Android OS and I love it. The Android competes with the iPhone and Blackberry all three are considered smart phones.
This past Monday Microsoft came out with their new Windows Phone 7 OS and I have to be honest, I like it a lot and thinking of getting it as soon as I can upgrade. I have watched walkthroughs, demos and it looks great but I am going to have to wait for actual consumer reviews to see what they have to say about it.
I do have some advice for Microsoft, get rid of the “Phone 7” and just go with Windows Mobile.

Hey people, I am back after hibernating for more than a month. I will have more to say about my hibernation on another post. In the meantime let me tell you about the weather here in sunny and hot as hell, not that I have ever been there wink wink, Los Angeles. Yesterday was 103 and today it was only 112 degrees, I think that is a new record by the way, and last I checked summer was officially over last week. I sat under the peach and lemon trees but not even that was enough to keep me cool so I just sat on the couch and ignored the heat, that worked out pretty well until I fell asleep only to wake up sweating like I had been listening to oldies, get it?, no. Anyway, according to the weather dude we still have one more hot day to go this week and then things will get back to normal, heck yeah!.

My first draft was 469 words and I was barely halfway through my post so in the end I decided to cut the fat and just tell you what happened. I was sitting down leaning forward just watching TV Monday afternoon at about 3:45 pm when all of the sudden I quickly tried to get up but didn’t get up at all and in that swift movement I felt something in my lower back.
To make a long story short I have been in pain ever since. Not long ago I wrote a post, you can read it here, and in it I mentioned that I was feeling a lot better and at 90% power. Anyway, I am once again back in pain and I am not liking it at all. That familiar burning pain is back in leg, I am walking a bit crooked, can’t sleep on my right side because of the pain and that has had me down ever since.
It has been a pretty tough week for me and I hope, really hope that it is nothing more than a pulled muscle and that I didn’t re-injure myself because that would be really devastating. I just don’t wanna go through that again.

I got up this morning, or evening, took a shower and decided to wear my old destroyed jeans. They are old and have a few holes here and there and I like them, I think that I have mentioned them before. I put them on and to my surprise they fit rather tightly and that surprised me because when I was working I would wear them and they weren’t as tight, in fact they had a loose fit to them.
I have to admit that I might be a bit, just a tiny bit, out of shape but that is because I haven’t worked in the last 8 months, has it been 8 months already?. I go to bed late, I wake up late, I eat, sleep, play MW2, you get the point.
Maybe I should start working out again now that I am feeling better, I am not talking about lifting weights or cars, just some light stretching and walking to start and see what happens.
