I’ve been swimming regularly in our pool for about half a year now and I’m getting a lot of benefits from it. First, it’s an awesome way to beat the heat. It’s also a nice way to work out, especially since I’m fat and too lazy to go to the gym or run or bike or do sit-ups. Helps my lung strength too (I really should stop smoking). The best benefit I get from swimming in our pool is I get to be alone. I get the chance to meditate about my life. You know, important stuff. And now, I’d like to share these things to you in a piece I’d like to call…

First of which is “FUNNY CATS”

I spend an average of 8 hours a day on weekdays online. During weekends, it can range from 4 to 12 hours, depending on how my social life is faring. It’s fairly obvious that there are websites that are regular stops for me in the information superhighway. And you’re about to meet them. Just to be fair, for my top 5 list of my favorite websites, I’m not going to include my blog. Yeah, the one you’re reading now, dummy.

#5: WWE.com - Being a fan of WWE, it follows that I always check out their official website. When I can’t resist (almost each and every time), I look at spoilers for Raw and Smackdown! After reading it, I’ll pretend that it just didn’t happen. I’m weird. Also, it helps that I can get official announcements about events and Superstars on the site. It gives me the feeling of intense fandom membership. Yay!

#4: Newsarama - What can I say? I love comics and I love news about comics. And what better site to deliver comics news than Newsarama? The community is a tightly knit group of creators, journalists, critics, and fans. I visit the site every day, although I don’t participate in the forum section a lot. Actually, I think I’ve just posted a couple of messages on a couple of threads, and that’s it. I suck.

In this, the second part of Baddie Bookmarks, I share to you the websites that save me during idle time. Sites that entertain, inspire, and boggle my simple and frail mind. These sites keep me busy and smiling when the emo meter hits a critical juncture. These sites give me pleasure, and there’s nothing I like more than pleasure. Hedonists reprezent, yo!

The Onion. Before I discovered the joy of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report, I enjoyed the irreverent “news source” called The Onion. From dumb stories about America’s dumb leader, to quirky “human condition” tales of the local man, this is comedy gold for the thinking dickhead. Finest indeed.

This “Database Error” that keeps happening on this blog for the last few days is irritating the shit out of me. It’s the most annoying thing when you’re ready to go with your wacky ideas about a blog entry, only to find out that your blog is currently inaccessible because of a stupid database error. I’m seriously considering getting my own domain and a paid hosting service. I’m just a few error messages away from totally leaving free hosting behind. I swear, kids, the first chance I get a long break from work, I’m gonna get me my own domain and a paid hosting service. Gggggg!

Anyway, since I lost my wacky ideas while waiting for my current host to get its crap together, I’m just going to give you a recap of my week. Hooray!

I finished Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, probably the greatest comic book-based video game ever. Ever. It was freakin’ awesome to kick Galactus‘ ass and to slap around Dr. Doom. Doctor freakin’ Doom! Geek overload, man. Geek overload.

Manny Pacquiao versus Erik Morales. All the hype boiled down to a 3-round boxing match. I wish Rey Mysterio got into the action and gave Manny a 619. And a hurricanrana. And a triple corkscrew moonsault from the top rope. And a chair shot to the face. That would’ve been cool.

I settled in my new apartment along Ortigas Extension. The traffic can become hell sometimes. And I’m acting like the giddy naive “probinsyano” that I am every time I commute. I mean, I haven’t commuted in years! You’re thinking “Oohhh. Poor little rich jerk. Doesn’t know how to commute ‘coz he’s always running around in his RAV 4 and shit.” It’s not that I don’t know how to commute. I’ve just forgotten how dangerous it is to ask directions from total strangers every chance I get. Every. Chance. I. Get.

One good thing about having an apartment near where I work is I can go out with friends after office hours. I got to watch Casino Royale with an old friend. I don’t know if it’s just me not being able to watch a movie in a cinema for weeks, or if it was the company, or if Casino Royale just totally kicked major ass. I mean, I was never a James Bond fan, but after watching Casino Royale, I can’t get the James Bond theme out of my head. I kept fighting the urge to stick to the wall, sneak around corners, and hum the Bond theme on my way to the comfort room.

Speaking of kickass movies, I just purchased a DVD of X-Men: The Last Stand. Can’t wait to have an X-Men movie marathon. Yes, I’m lonely like that.

I think I may get the chance to put one of my “online masterplans” in motion after being invited into a mailing list for Pinoy bloggers. I’ve been thinking of doing it after I get my own domain, but I think the sooner I get it out of my system, the better. Here’s hopin’.

That’s my week. Yes, that’s as exciting as it gets for me these days. Cue the “Loser” song by Beck. I deserve it. Ggggg.
