blogger buffet
There's a lot in my head tonight. So, here's a little something for everyone . . .
the vague emo post
Have you ever been in the middle of "the moment", watching it slip away, knowing that it was slipping away, knowing full well what you had to do, wanting to actually do it, but still were paralyzed by fear and ended up doing nothing.
My moment is fading fast. Still, I do nothing.
the softball update post
It was kind of like Casey at the bat. There are two outs, bottom of the last inning, two runners on, down by two, and I step up to the plate. The umpire even said, "Winning run at the plate." Thanks for the added pressure, ump. Anyway, The first pitch comes. And, it's a horrible pitch. The whole time, I'm watching it, thinking, "Don't swing, don't swing." But, for some reason, I swung. Ground ball, to the first baseman. Out we lose.
It wasn't my fault that we lost. But it could have been my fault that we won.
the making fun of jared post
Last night I went to the Red's game with my parents. There to throw out the ceremonial first pitch was none other than Jared Fogle of Subway fame. Now, I can't stand Jared. I don't like his attitude. He seems kind of smarmy. So, I'm upset at the whole fact that I am in the same building as him. But, two things redeem the whole situation. First of all, he's looking a bit, ummmm, portly again. I shouldn't take joy in that, and in fact I don't except for the prospect of there being no more Jared comercials anymore.
Anyway, for the best part . . . as he is walking to the mound, I'm kinda cranky. But then, it occurs to me . . .
. . . he is so going to bounce this . . .
And sure enough, the pitch landed two feet in front of the plate. It was beautiful. I'm tearing up just thinking about it.
the somewhat sentimental somewhat philosophical post
So, I've been in a weird mood all weekend. Some of it I know why, some of it I'm not sure why. but, apart from the Jared moment, i've been kinda down all weekend. But this evening, I was hanging out in the apartment with a group of friends, just chatting and goofing off. It was quite theraputic, and now I am much less emo. My friends pretty much rule.
the goofy post
At IHOP tonight, we are discussing film classes. I've never actually had one, and in fact I don't think I've ever even attended a school that offered one. But, I definately think I should be a film professor. In particular, I would like to offer some of the seminar classes; you know, the ones with the rotating topics. I would want to teach the following:
Film Seminar: Corey Haim and Corey Feldman Film Seminar: The films of Sinbad Film Seminar: Baseball movies Film Seminar: Ping Pong Movies Film Seminar: Samuel L. Jackson Film Seminar: Why the Sandlot is the best movie of all time!!!!!!!!! Film Seminar: The Batman Genre Film Seminar: Armageddon vs Deep Impact
The possibilities are endless.
