I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

You can feed the fish?

Spent the day at my old high school watching Squirt and Bubby play in a volleyball tournament and they won the championship game for their division, woohoo!

It all came down to the final game. Every other game they'd never lost a set so when they lost the first one their spirits were down, were totally depressed, getting smoked when suddenly the teacher stands up, points to Bubby who's about to serve and yells "alright bubbalicious! yeah!" and it was just like David's ball stealing play in the Husker game a couple of weeks ago - the momentum just shifted. They were goofy and excited and it worked. Social Psychology at its greatest. Thank you groupthink. flashbacks.

Needless to say we came from behind and pulled it off in the second and third set. Huzzah!

Plus Squirt and Bubby rocked it. As always.

But you know how when you're playing a sport you feel like it's super intense, but then when you go back to watch the same game 10 years later with kids the same age as you were at that time it seems like a whole different game? Like speedwise? and intensity? Like they played really well tonight and they were big games, but I feel like we were a lot more aggressive and the game was more intense when we played. But we did have the biggest class of 8th graders and a lot of us started our freshman year of high school when we came in. And a lot of my old roommates hold records for things that are still up on the boards that I checked out today, it's exciting. I was there for that, and that, and that, oh and that I had to listen about for days...So it was interesting to watch it now as comparing it to playing it then.


After that it was sushi with the Queen of Awesome. We ate and we drank and we were merry and it was awesome. And will hopefully happen again soon as I miss her lots.

We were excited when the dude gave fish food to the kids to throw in. Totally jealous. I want to feed their kickass fish. In their kickass fountain. But I'm guessing there's an age limit on that one.

Watching more 3rd Rock. It's just so short and amusing. I have so many things that I need to to catch up on though. QofA and I talked about this. So many new good shows it's hard to keep up with all the old ones.

Alright, I'm off to bed. Have a good one. I'll try to get some sleep with my big fat cat sleeping on my stomach as we speak.

ps- ignore any typos. i can't exactly see the keyboard.

changing every day, every possible way

"Booze Cakes...sounds like a term of endearment. Hey Booze Cakes."
"That's fantastic."
the joys of training new employees.

Today was mostly filled with paperwork. But I got to spend the majority of it with Girlscout so it was fun. We're Team Awesome.

Joys of professionalism - Wrote up a summary on what you need to know to work at one of the branches since a lot of our people are gone so others are filling in. The summary turned out to be 3 pages. And I keep adding more and more.

After that it was e-mails and scheduling.

And then I ended the day with the joy that is incident and citizen injury reports. But hey, at least I got to check out the cute fire and rescue guys.

"Why are you listening to the serpant?.....Don't eat the fruit....Don't eat the fruit!....Women."

Got 3rd Rock From the Sun season one from Target for like 6 bucks. Loving it. Now I have to find season two. Wonder if the library has it. Or WorldCat. I love WorldCat.

"I'm not mooning, I'm obsessing, there's a difference."

Tomorrow is a day for sleeping. And running errands. And then sleeping some more. Unless of course I get called in. Which would be fine. I don't think I know what to do with myself outside of work nowadays anyway.

"I have class in five minutes. And that's just the first of my reservations."
oh speaking of, I should check the syllabus and figure out if I'm missing something for class on Saturday.

Songs of the night:

"Dreams" The Cranberries

used to listen to them a lot in high school. probably drove juwanna nuts. the joy of roommates at a dorm school. but she did save me from the killer dresser so i love her.

Think this is my favorite though....
"Just My Imagination"

I think Shannen looked a little more coordinated on Dancing With the Stars.
P3 got all the coolest acts at the time - The Cranberries, Michelle Branch, Barenaked Ladies, Goo Goo Dolls, Fastball. Yes, I'm a Charmed nerd, get used to it. It's either this or Drew Barrymore really. I can always throw in a Friends reference if it would make you feel better.

"I fold like a cheap hooker who got slapped in the stomach by a fat guy with sores on his face...oh, I'm out." The one with all the poker. Love that episode. Yes I know it's title. It's not like it's that hard of one to remember.

"Your money's mine, Green!"
"Your fly's open, Gellar!"

OUT!
