Oh, TV boyfriend, ILU.

Um, my life. So I've been mostly preoccupied with baseball, which is always a good feeling. I was a little worried after last night just because those extra inning games take a lot out of the pitching staff but we held it together today. I'm worried about Beckett - but Lester is giving out ace stuff and Daisuke is solid so over the course of a series it will be better. I still can't believe we are going to play the fucking devil rays in a fucking ALCS. The only consolation is that the yankees fans have to be crying themselves to sleep thinking about an all AL East ALCS with no yankees. Who would have thunk it?

LOL devil rays. Winning. WTF.

I HAVE NOT WATCHED HEROES YET.

HAY EVERYONE.

NOMAR GOT SCREWED.

FIX IT

pls :( Houston guy is mean and Nomar is leading in batting average.

It doesn't get much better than this, nope.

I love my silly overblown rivalry.

I also love boos for Johnny Damon.

And I love that Dougie is back catching Wake like he should be.

Okay, maybe it makes me a horrible person, but Peyton losing is softening the blow just a little

My sister (5 yrs): Which one is Tom Brady?
My dad: He's not playing in this game
My sister: *whine* but you said Tom Brady was playing tonight!
Me: He's playing later, honey...

also, she thinks Asante Samuel is a "very strange name"

we start 'em early here in my family.

I felt like I should do one more post before it is 2006.

I guess the most important thing about this new year's is that for the past 4 years, I've been looking at everything denoting my graduating year as 2006. And now it's 2006.

I've been getting introspective about a lot of things, but really, I don't know what's left of 2005 to analyze. I've been through it over and over.

There were definite.... arcs.

There was the second half of junior, which sucked ass. BLECH. Then there was summer and then there was the first half of senior year. I kind of hate school.

I had a crush. For the first time. I can't tell if it was not at all what it was cracked up to be or more or worse.

I dunno. I feel like a year is too long to box into "good" or "bad". I think I actually had more fun than in previous years. Like, I had a LOT of fun. I went out so much more than I used to. And I had fun with friends, and at Prom, etc etc etc.

Hey, my friends get along! That's nice!

Interestingly, nothing really happened until February. Like I remember nothing until we won the Superbowl. And then I failed the Junior thesis. And then I got that crush. THAT'S when the new year started.

And Veronica Mars. I'm glad I started to watch VM. Because I wouldn't have any Aaron Echolls jokes, and my life would be so much worse.

Randomly, I was listening to my ipod, and All Things Must Pass came on, and I was thinking of once when I was listening to it, and how it's such an optimistic but real song, not annoyingly optimistic, because all things must pass. And the Elevation came on, and completely different happy buttons were pressed.

I have an essay to write, but I had to share this, because I have FEELINGS, goddamnit.
( here's looking at you, kid )
Five year grace period.

Five year grace period.

So, how bout them colts losing, eh, eh? And that was a great Pats game on Saturday.

I made a Pete Carroll joke on my USC app.

Clearly it was too good to pass up.

Also, I'm far too much of a smartass for my own good.

I love my team. I'm glad the defense showed up. I'm glad Tom is pretending he's alright.

Wow, that is the single most random order ever. Um, anyway, go.

So the Patriots need to stop doing this. THE TRUST IS GONE. THE. TRUST. IS. GONE. In this incarnation, my heart can't handle your dilly dallying.

Anyway, we won. At least we can do something. Sometimes. Oh joy, we can beat Gus Ferouette. I'm so secure.

Grr, I have work like whoa. I hate school. Not happy, is I. However, I get out after French tomorrow. It'll be nice to chill before philo.

My subconsious has adopted Ani DiFranco metaphors as it's own. Last night's dream, I was totally like, "wow, way to follow a song exactly, lameass subconsious."

Anyone have Sixteen Military Wives by the Decemberists they can ysi or something? Am too lazy to go full out with teh_music right now.

ETA: Got it. Also, Mike Tice:

"Sometimes, you wake up and you say, 'Man, I didn't have anything to drink last night. I didn't have anything fattening. So why do I want to puke?' Then you realize, 'Oh, that's right.' You start remembering what's going on in your life." -- Vikings coach Mike Tice
