Tidbits from Moronica

1) Boy has the weather here in Moronica taken a nasty turn today. The Royal Courtyard is a complete mess thanks to the high winds. Bits and pieces from my trees are all over the place. I am so looking forward to cleaning this mess up...NOT! The temperature has fallen like a rock since 3:00 p.m. and there is a threat of flurries later. UGH! At least we had a decent lightning show last night to enjoy. The week ahead looks like it may be cool and crappy. So much for the great spring we have had so far.
2) Well, my Royal Back is now out of whack. I felt the sucker go last Tuesday evening when I was doing some work around the house. I have not enjoyed the last few days and it looks like I will not be able to defend my win last week on the golf course tomorrow, but then again maybe it is a blessing in disguise..I won't have to play in the cold and the wind...but then again I would rather play as my game finally seems to be coming back. I had six pars and no 'X' holes and that is a big step in the right direction. Hopefully next week, if my aching back cooperates, I can get out and play nine quick holes before next weekend.
3) My Royal Chef had the day off, well I really do not have a chef as it is just me in the kitchen. Today, for the first time in a long time I made some lasagna. My last batch was not a good one as the sauce I used, a high quality store bought sauce, sucked so I decided to make my own by tweaking my spaghetti sauce recipe a bit. The lasagna came out much better than before. Even Prince Spoiled Brat cleaned his plate off. But the sauce needs another tweak and I cannot put my finger on what to tweak and that is not like me. I can usually figure out what to do to make it even better, like I did with my chowder recipe, but this fix escapes me for now. But still it was good.
4) Last Saturday I went, incognito of course, to the Rochester Rhinos home opener against the Carolina Railhawks. The Rhinos appreciated my visit and put me right in the front row behind the team bench and they honored my royal request not to be announced as attending. The Rhinos played well and should have won but, again, the refereeing in this league is spotty at best. It frustrates me to see a referee make such a brutal call on a slide tackle that gets all ball but the moron still awarded a penalty kick. The Rhinos were up 1-0 at the time and they could have played until midnight and Carolina would never have scored but thanks to the moron ref they get a gift, cashed it in and people wonder why they cannot draw more fans to a nice new soccer stadium. It is the refereeing! This team gets screwed by the referees in this league every chance they get. It gets to be so frustrating to watch knowing at some point during the game the ref will make a call that is so brutal as to put people off. It sure put me off. Also, listening to the coach talk to his players on the bench when the Rhinos were having a rough stretch made me think I was back on the golf course. I always thought the golf course was where I heard that type of language.
5) Well, the weekend has come to where it has become official. The Queen has officially left me for the Burger King. Truth is that it really does not bother me all that much as she is the Burger King's problem now. We were too much like oil and vinegar but she could have been more truthful about the situation instead of telling me at the beginning there was NOT another guy when in fact that was not the case. Certain things that I have done since then I would not have done if I had known the truth. But hey, I am still young and handsome, well then again, maybe not so young and it has been pointed out from previous comments on this blog, not so handsome. As soon as school is over Prince Spoiled Brat becomes, well then again since she is still with royalty, Prince Spoiled Brat and will move into Burger Heaven with his mother. But the thing that really gets me is that she has the Royal Mutt. I miss the mutt but it is better for the mutt to be there as there will be more people in that house for her. Her breed is a people breed and with only me in the castle it would have been hard on her. But I really do miss her... a lot more than I will miss my ex-queen. 'Nuf said.
6) Lastly I would like to offer an honorary Moronican citizenship to Mr. Bill, and I hope he accepts it. We may differ in certain points of view, and I look forward to our future debates, but I do know a nice guy when I see him and Mr. Bill seems like a good egg worthy of this honor. I hope he accepts my offer.
Well, that's the way it is Saturday May 8, 2010, This is King Dinglefritz of Moronica wishing you all a pleasant evening.
