4.159. Waiver Wednesday

So, I’ve officially given up on the Giants this season. I am no longer finding ways to watch the game or shaping events around the chance to see Barkley do his thing. That last game did me in. The fact that everyone knew the Giants would blow it made me feel like… Like a Browns fan. I don’t enjoy that energy.

I can see a fantasy football scenario where my team is like the Giants. In fact, everyone expects my #2 ranked team to get destroyed by the #7 ranked Bot. We only had 7 people, so we added an 8th–an automated player–who we all faced. The Bot has been gaining momentum going into the playoffs and has a real shot at taking me down. Yes, that would be Giant-like and terrible.

And entirely possible.

Some Thoughts:

  1. New puppy is a pain in the arse. She is not doing well with the Kennel training or the potty training. The nightly cries when she goes into the Kennel is terrible. She treats it like a jail cell. I feel like she’s been conditioned to feel that way already and I don’t know how to change it.
  2. I do know that I sleep less as a result. She’s not about to stay in there all night peacefully as her predecessor did. She throws a major fit until she runs herself down and then she eventually wakes up to do it again.
  3. If there is a better way to do this then I hope I find it, because it is a tragedy each night both emotionally and physically.
