Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know it's been a while since I wrote a List (or even blogged in general for that matter), but when your boss tells you at lunch one day "I really like your blog. It's REALLY funny," you kind of back off the thing for a moment...

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know it's been a while since I wrote a List (or even blogged in general for that matter), but when your boss tells you at lunch one day "I really like your blog. It's REALLY funny," you kind of back off the thing for a moment.


 
But my sabbatical couldn't last forever. Hell, there's enough on here to probably get me fired from ANY job as it is, so there's no point in stopping now, right?

 
So in the spirit of a long day and a bad day (both today) I give you:

 
The Ten Things I Really Truly Hate At This Very Moment:

 
10. Mock Drafts -- Honestly, do we really need another 2009 Mock Draft? How many times can Matt Stafford and Knowshon Moreno be cursed for the upcoming season? It's not enough to say that the Dawgs are the team to beat, but then to essentially place college football's version of the "Madden Curse" on our two studs just puts Murphy's Law into overdrive. So, all you pundits out there, shut up. Please. My team, myself and the National Championship trophy we yearn to have at the end of the season needs you to just shut the f*ck up.

 
9. Being Stuck in Atlanta -- I can't even begin to tell you how badly I want to haul ass to Athens for an extended week of relaxation and cheap drinking. Sure, my liver is against it, but the rest of the flesh is dying for it. 2008 has been an absolute whirlwind for me so far (which I've very thankful for), but I need a break. My brain is like Barack Obama's PR director; overworked and f*cking tired.

 
8. Facebook -- Damn you for making me addicted to you. I have personally wished more people happy birthday this week than I have in the past two years combined. Don't get me wrong, it's nice to finally have the ability to tell a friend happy birthday instead of doing what I always do and forget and apologize profusely afterwards, but still. I live for the day when someone says "Facebook Me" and I say "Huh?"

 
7. Drunk Ass Businessmen -- Like the ones sitting to my immediate left. No, the four attractive girls in this place DO NOT think you're hot sh*t and laughing louder does not mean that you're more fun than anyone else in this place. Don't get me wrong, I'm envious of the ability to travel around with your buddies and drink on the company's dime, but then again if I were to do it, I wouldn't constantly be on the prowl for girls who I know I have no shot with. Drunk Ass Businessmen act like they never left the strip club and it's annoying.

 
6. Fox -- Yeah, the cable giant. Since I'm still without cable, it's annoying when a company tells you their episodes of House will be online 8 days after the show airs and then 9 days later it still hasn't happened. Not like you guys care or anything. I mean with that Emmy you won for being lucky enough to broadcast the Boise St. vs. Oklahoma Fiesta Bowl.
