The Good,The Bad,The Ugly

Maybe it's been listening to The Cure of late but a trilogy"Pornography""Disintegration"and"Bloodflowers" seems appropo.

The Good My run,against a back drop of rain and a "tough day at the office" I cranked out a 63 minute 10 miler.
I've said time and again running in the rain doesn't phase me,as it turned out the rain held off but frankly unless it was pissing down I was going to be out there period,plus I don't want to burn my rest day on Sunday as A I have a race scheduled for Tuesday and B another fuck off day is on tap for Sunday.

The Bad Part one rough day at the World Cup for Honduras,Spain and South Africa,Spain are one of the favourites and while not the end of the world for them to lose to Switzerland they've made it a bit tougher for themselves
For the hosts South Africa they run the risk of being the first host nation not to reach the second round,they have to beat France in their final game and wait and see.
The Bad part two today is a year to the day I had to concede defeat to my achilles injury and not only see my 09 season come to a stand still but also miss out on Worlds where I still believe I had a legitimate shot at becoming a world champion.
I keep a little bit of that disappointment w/in me even now a year later to remind myself what's at stake,I've said all along this year is a blueprint for next years World Championships in Sacramento.

The Ugly The keen eyed among you will have noticed a lack of work WTF moments of late....much like waiting for a bus you wait for ages then three show up together......
WTF#1 As I mentioned yesterday I had to work alone today while Chris was off at his sons High School graduation which meant me having to carry the workload,no big,been done b4,it'll be done again.
When Ups and Fed Ex showed up together and dumped 170 pieces on the dock I knew it was going to be"one of those days"what I didn't need was my delivery person"three dollar bill" standing out in the hallway flapping his gums for ten minutes only to walk onto to dock and drop his patented line"they're fucking up my day".......................WTF you stood out in the hallway talking bollocks not me....as it was when I left for the day at 3.40pm he was finished for the day....90 minutes b4 he clocks out....if that's your day being fucked up I'd hate to see when you get finished on a really rough day!!
WTF#2 I realize if I turn side ways I tend to disappear but I was standing on the dock writing up the Moss deliveries when numb nuts backs onto the dock w/ a delivery for the storeroom.he walks right by me and goes out into the hallway....to find someone to take the delivery....DUDE I was the ONLY person on the feckin loading dock.....HELLO!!!!!
To compound the WTF element he then rolls the skid from the front of the truck to the back and wants me to lay a pallet on the dock to transfer them from the skid on the truck to the dock......I put the dock plate down on the truck and pulled the skid off w/ the jack.....not b4 telling dude to fuck off and don't come back!
WTF#3 Remember the whole Mailroom/Loading Dock debacle about Moss deliveries a few weeks back? on my way over to Moss this afternoon I was asked if I could take two Ups deliveries to the Mailroom....technically not my job but I'm a team player so I said yes,I take them down to the Mailroom and the same person who pulled the plug on the Mailroom delivering loading dock Moss deliveries says trying to be funny"oh you're making pick ups now?"
eat a bag a bag of shit you are not funny!!!
