commercials

 Have you listened to a ballgame lately?


    It doesn't matter if you watch on tv or listen on the radio, it seems a constant stream of commercials.

    And not just the 15 or 30 second ones, but the slipped in not so obvious ones.

    Like: 

    On challenges for a replay:   Second opinions are always recommended by Northwestern Medicine.

    Describing the uniforms:  Uniform descriptions brought to you by Sherwin Williams.

    And on and on.

    Tonight I heard a new one.  The Guardians' center:fielder made a sliding catch, which was followed by: all sliding catches are sponsored by Wisconsin Dells, where you can slide into the fun.

    Or something like that.

    Coupled with the betting commercials that run almost every inning and I wonder why I have to pay so much for cable when they have all these ads!

    Anyway. 

    Took a stab at cleaning the garage today.

    What is wrong with me?  The g garage is a mess, the basement is cluttered, my desk area has enough paper to ... I don't know to do what..... just a lot of shit.

    I seem. to have passed the curse onto my daughters.  For that I am deeply sorry.

    So I spent about 90 minutes out there and you can't even tell I did anything.

    In may mind things are organized and clean, but in reality stuff is put everywhere and is dirty.  I need to wash off lawn tools when I am done, not just stick them wherever there is space.

    That's why I spend so much time looking for stuff.

    I know the problem.   I know the solution.  I just can't do it.

    Maybe tomorrow.  But probably not.

Peace and Love
