Friends, I'm feeling the upswing. The momentum is starting to change. I've been riding a proverbial 0-for-21 slump in the game of life the past few weeks. Don't know why, but I've just been stinking up the joint. But I just know it's turning around. There's nothing specifically all that great that's going on, but the tide is starting to turn. I can feel it.

Mostly, I'm starting to get healthy again. The vile death cough that has been shooting Millenium Falcon-sized loogies up my asophagial canal finally seems to be running for the hills. The Boogie clan immune system is not one hombre with which you should fuck. My great grandpa Finbar "Knuckles" Boogie used to eat 10 Bewley's teabags for breakfast, a handful of rotted-out shilelaghs for lunch and three members of British parliament for dinner every night. Healthy as a Kildare horse, he was. Wouldn't have missed a day of work in his life, if he had actually ever had a job.

As for me, I enjoyed the week's first night of non-Nyquil aided sleep last night. It was mercifully violent lurch-free. No more thrashing around in my sweat-soaked sheets, wishing for the sweet merciful scythe of death to carve my diseased lungs out of my blackened chest cavity. Instead, I actually dipped my toe in the pool of this incredible sensation I seemed to have had forgotten: "sleep." Have you heard about this stuff? It's pretty amazing. I woke up this morning with a clear head and a renewed lust for life.

I'm on a natural high. Well, if you consider methamphetamines cooked up in my biker neighbor's shed "natural." Let's keep the positive energy rolling, kids. Anything good happening to anyone out there in Scamperland?

btw, I got the summer cough myself - let me just say work plus nyquil does not equal sound judgement...

And now that I'm clogging up your journal board, I guess I gotta cough up some cash for one of your shows...

You can't get a two bedroom condo in Porter Square for 650K, but you can get an entire friggin' building in Pawtucket? No wonder only crazy homeless rapists with knives are moving to Boston.

I am making great progress cleaning out my basement, which is a positive despite waking up with a moldy-sinuses issue.

Congratulations, Johanna. I'd buy you a drink, but you know - $6.12.
