Just watch WWE Hell in the Cell.  Punk cheated his way out of the match.

Randy Orton won over Del Rio
Big Show won heavyweight championship against Sheamus
Eve won triple threat match, kept title
HellNo kept championship due to interference by Kane
Kofi kept his championship over Miz
Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara beat the Money boys
Cesara kept his belt.

Good matches, until Punk cheated.

Oh, we were just talking about the World Series in the car today. Aidan loves baseball but being over here with no television, we did not even know who was playing. Last we had heard, the Nationals were the favourites.

I googled it in the car and told Aidan he would NEVER, NEVER guess who made it to the series. The only hint I gave him was that I did not even realise that one was in fact a baseball team (and not solely a football team) and the other was surely a sign of the coming apocalypse. Aidan must have guessed every other team in existence before we woke his brother, who played on the Tigers for little league and is obsessed with Prince Fielder, that we finally got someone to guess Detroit. (Gwyn lived in Detroit for 5 years and it never even crossed him mind to guess them.)

Our little ex-Brewer obviously carried that team, and even then, it wasn't enough. Happy for you, CebuShan. :yahoo; I did forget that the Giants even existed, and I grew up in Cali, but there are 5 teams to keep track of there, so I am sorta excused.  :embarassed:

It's Saturday and my dog is farting up a storm all day after eating an apple and a carrot. It is not safe in my room! Now she has diarrhea from it. Not a good thing for parents to treat her like a pet and not using the right commands.

Just got home from a costume party.  One of my fraternity brothers from the 1980's in Connecticut moved out here.  He now lives 4.4 miles away.  Small world.  Good thing we get an extra hour of sleep tonight!

weird thing today.  About 5 minutes left of my treatment and I broke out in a cold sweat.  I was soaked but my skin felt so cold. I felt a little nauseous as well.

HH is going swell. I think hubby, and I have worked out a brilliant system. I do the setup, needles in/out, he hands me the red, and the blue. Great.

Lesson learned today: don't put your coffee on the Pureflow.

More fun.  After I got home from dialysis I laid down for a nap.  I awoke to a what I thought was a wicked runny nose.  I ran to the bathroom to find that blood was pouring out of my nose and down my throat.  It was nasty.  After 20 minutes of bleeding even with pressure on it my son came home from class.  I had called the advice nurse and she told me to go to the closest ER.  They packed my nose and sent me on my way.  I have to sleep sitting up tonight and call my PCP in the morning.  They gave ma a referral to an ENT in case my PCP wants me to go straight to an ENT. Having my nose packed is so uncomfortable and it is giving me a bad headache. 

The funny thing is that I have broken my nose I think 9 times.  I have had it fixed twice and I have never had a bloody nose. Go figure.

Oh, sheesh, this all sounds utterly miserable, Marc. Hope they can offer you some relief soon and give you some clue as to how to stop it from happening again.  :grouphug;

Last night was horrible.  I was spitting hunks of blood out all night.  I called my PCP as soon as the office opened.  They said come in at 3.  Then they said 1:45.  I told them how awful I felt and asked if they had an opening if they could call me.  She had me come right down.  He took the packing out that I swear was touching grey matter and sent me to the lab to check how I was clotting.  So far, so good.

I'm so sorry you had to suffer like that, Marc. Fingers crossed that this was just a weird one-off and you'll never experience anything like it again.
