Raq. Your Spurs are doooone. Though, my Cavs haven't been playing all that well, so who knows if they'll make it any farther. But yes, your Spurs are out. I'll comfort you, don't worry. Different sport - the Indians have been playing like shit lately. They won the last three games, though, so we'll see.
In other news, non sports related, my sister called me earlier today to tell me that Chloe, my niece, has a boyfriend. A boyfriend, and the girl's only seven years old. What the hell. I thought that boys were supposed to have cooties or something when you're that age! Hell, I still think most girls have cooties. I can't wait until they're older, and I can do this shit to their dates. Seriously. That'll be me. I'm not lying. "I JUST GOT OUTTA JAIL AND I AIN'T GOIN' BACK."

I feel the need to say congrats to my hometown Cleveland Cavaliers. They're up 3-1 in this series against the Bulls. I had the day off today, so I went up to the bar and made the bartender turn on the game so I could watch it in a bar, drinking beer, just like old times. Though, the difference was that I was the only one cheering like a lunatic every time LeBron James made a three pointer.
Oh well. I'm just excited. Cleveland teams do have a habit, though, of self-destructing when they're ahead. So let's hope they can just get this last game to win this series and move on in the Playoffs.
This entry was actually kind of pointless. Oh well.

'Wheel In The Sky' - Journey |

Not naming any names. But if any more guests in their late forties to early fifties come into the medical center with their clothes falling off, I'm not sure I'll be able to take it. These women need to learn how the fuck to hold their liquor. Jesus. Raq, I blame you. Because I can.

I miss when Easter used to be exciting. I used to wake up super early and sneak around the living room, finding all the plastic eggs before my sisters woke up. So then when we all woke up, I already knew all the hiding places, so I found more eggs than them. I remember this one year, my mom hid the eggs the night before, and she was probably a little tipsy when she did it. Because she knew she hid forty eggs, but we only found thirty-nine. For weeks, nobody found that last egg, and she couldn't remember where she hid it. I ended up finding it like three weeks later, hidden in a hanging potted plant. To this day, we're still not sure what possessed my mother to hide an egg in the dirt of a potted plant. I think it was the alcohol.
Any fun Easter stories? Or plans for today? I'm probably just going to call my nieces, be good Uncle David Berg, and then go get wasted.

'Carry On Wayward Son' - Kansas |

I'm off today, and I've had kind of a lazy Saturday. I haven't done a whole hell of a lot. I slept in, which was AMAZING. I love sleeping in, let me tell you. It was great to wake up, realize I had nowhere to be, and then just go back to sleep. I did do some laundry today. Which, let me tell you, if there was one household chore that I could choose to never do, ever again? It'd be laundry. I hate it. It's tedious, and a pain in the ass. The only good thing about laundry is that you can put your shit in the washer and then go do something else. But you better come back and get it out when it's done, because if your wet clothes sit too long before going into the dryer? They smell bad. Musty or something. I really hate laundry. It's an all day task.
Anyway. I finally finished up with the laundry, I've just got another load to fold, but I really don't feel like it right now. They can sit in the basket and get wrinkled for all I care. My mother would probably gasp and cover her mouth if she heard that, but whatever. I feel like going for a run or something.

I don't know why, but this song randomly entered into my head today. And it wasn't the entire song. Just the chorus, where they're like "I want a girl with a short skirt, and a loooooooooong jacket." Haha. I don't know why. And in watching this video, it cracks me up. My favorite person in the video is Robert L. Clark. The black man from Venice Beach, CA. He cracks me up. "How much is this? I'll take two." Hahaha.
In other news, I had a guest come into the medical center last night, extremely intoxicated. She was hitting on me while she was puking. I'm so not flattered, though, because I feel like she would have hit on a mop if there had been one in the vicinity. But whatever. It wasn't busy, so once she was done puking, I let her pass out in one of the hospital beds and gave her an IV to keep her hydrated, and let her sleep it off. I can be kind sometimes.

Apparently, my new nickname is the 'Great and Powerful Berg'. I like it.
Aside from my awesome new nickname, there's really not much else to talk about. I'm hearing horrible things about these boys that are running around the island, but I haven't had to interact with them yet, so I don't care. I have run into that one girl that's running around, though. I was up at Sahara earlier tonight, having a drink. And she comes up to the table I'm sitting at, and just slips right into my booth and starts talking to me like we're old friends. I finally just got up and walked away while she was in mid-sentence. Maybe I should have said something, but ... no. She annoyed me. What the hell. I don't even know.
And, total random sidenote, I saw a guy in the bar wearing this on his t-shirt. It totally made me laugh, not gonna lie.

I think I'm finally starting to feel somewhat better. I don't know what kind of a virus I had, but ... Jesus Christ. It really kicked my ass. I felt like complete shit for like two weeks straight. It was absolutely ridiculous. I'm finally starting to feel better, though, so that's good news. That means I can go back to work soon. Thank God. This whole staying in bed and not working thing? Nice for the first day or two, and then it just gets fucking boring. I'm the type of guy that's always got to be doing something. And sitting in my room or laying in my bed? Got old really fast. At least I managed to catch up on some sleep, though. Good deal.
Happy New Year to everyone, since I wasn't able to get out and celebrate it with any of you. I'm sure you all missed my presence ever so much, it brought you to tears. It's okay, you can admit it. It makes you only normal.
Yeah, that's all I've got. A day or two more of recovering, and then it's back to the Medical center! Thank god.

So, no. I have not fallen off the face of the earth. Or, since we live on an island, maybe I should phrase it like this. No, I have not fallen into the ocean and been swept away by the current. I'm alive and well ... or, actually ... I'm alive. Not well. I've managed to contract some horrible illness that has me completely bed ridden. I haven't had the energy to get out of bed all weekend. It totally came out of nowhere. I was fine on Christmas, and then I woke up Saturday and was okay ... I felt a little funky, but nothing bad. But by the time it hit Saturday afternoon, I felt like death ran over. Like I'd been hit by a fucking semi-truck.
I just wanted to let you guys all know that I'm still here. Just ... dead. That's all. No biggie.

Christmas is right around the corner. I can't believe how fast this year went. Jesus. Anyway, I talked to my sisters today ... yes, all three of them. I think they all decide what day they want to call me, and bombard me with phone calls. So that I'm stuck on the phone for like three hours, because all three of those women love to talk. Not to mention, Syd had me on the phone with the girls. And apparently the talkative gene got passed on to both Chloe and Theresa, because I think each of them had me on the phone longer than all three of my sisters combined. Chloe kept asking me if I'm coming home for Christmas. It wasn't something I really even thought about, but now I'm not sure. The girls want me there ... I could practically hear Chloe's pout over the phone. And Sydney didn't say it, but I think she really wants me there, too. I don't know - just something to think about.
That said - I need ideas from you people as to what you want for Christmas. You know who you are, the people I would get something for. I'm definitely nowhere near intuitive when it comes to gifts, so speak up or you're going to get something generic. Just saying. If you're questioning whether or not you're important enough for me to get you something, then chances are ... you're not.

I saw the nastiest broken bone today. It's been awhile since I've seen one of those broken bones where the bone is protruding from the skin, but that's what I saw today. Some surfing accident, I guess. Poor guy. It looked like it hurt like a bitch. I guess all the screaming when I set the thing would be a dead giveaway for that, but meh. Really gross, though. Lots of blood.
Also, random, but I got the strongest craving for Chipotle today. I don't know why. It's not like I've been seeing it advertised, or anything. But ... yeah, it was all I could think about today.

Have you guys been hearing about this? My mom called me the other day and was going on and on about it. I don't ever watch the news, because it's so fucking depressing nowadays. All full of murder and just a bunch of bullshit. Which is why I hadn't heard about this until just now. I'm man enough to admit that shit like this scares me. My mom is in Cleveland, my sisters are in Cleveland, my nieces are in Cleveland. I just ... I don't know. This guy's in prison, yeah, but there are so many other fucked up people out there. Eleven victims, and they've only actually identified three. The article says one, but my mom told me that the news said they've identified three. Can you imagine what the families who have missing loved ones must be going through right now? So fucked up.
That's all I've got for now. I'm going to go call Sydney and talk to my nieces for a little bit.

No, I haven't died. Or left the island without giving any word. I've just been busy. This whole Hutch and Lulu leaving thing has left me pretty busy in the medical center.
Nothing else much is going on, it's been pretty boring. Halloween's coming up, though, which makes me happy. I love Halloween, it's the only holiday that I actually enjoy celebrating. Well, that, and St. Patrick's Day. Who doesn't like a holiday where you're supposed to get absolutely smashed?
Anyway. Does anyone know if the island is doing anything for Halloween? I found a costume that I think is ... pretty goddamn perfect for me, actually. I wanna wear it somewhere.
