Previous Entry. Next Entry.
Friday April 16 2004. LET THE GAMES BEGIN AGAIN.
  FROM JUSTIN: "At the risk of ripping the scab off of wounds just starting to heal, tickets are now available for the Amazing Jonathan."
THE BIKE. RUDENESS. DOG SPY. 

  I'm very proud of myself. Back in November, I swore to myself that I would ride the stationary bike over the winter. And I did ride that damn thing.
  Three times, baby.

  I've noticed something about my friends and me (or "my friends and I," whatever). We never end our IM's to each other with "bye" or "see ya" or whatnot. They just kind of end. We do our business and then we're off. A rude bunch are we.   All day long Luke stretches out on the floor and doesn't budge for anything. I clomp around the house. Nothing. The phone rings. Nothing. The mailman slams the mailbox shut. Nothing. I crank up a CD. Nothing.
  And then I print something out on my printer. Lukie jumps up to see what's going on.
  I think Beth has him trained to spy on me to make sure I'm working.
UNMERRY CHRISTMAS. RON JEREMY SUPERSTAR.

  Holy crap. I just ordered $242 worth of business cards, address labels, and mailers. I hope this newsletter stuff works out, otherwise I'll be back at CVS before Christmas.

  Ron Jeremy had an un-credited part in the 1973 movie "Jesus Christ Superstar." Who knew?
  And, more importantly, what does it mean?...
COOKING SECRETS. Rudeness, Let The Games Begin Again, Dog Spy, Cooking Secrets, Unmerry Christmas, The Bike, Rusty, and Ron Jeremy Superstar.

  The secret to people thinking you are a good cook is to have a stable of about 10 or 15 different dishes and just cook the hell out of them. Over and over.

RUSTY.
  Finally. Softball season started last night and it was good to be back out on the field. After I ran (okay, walked) out to left field in the first inning of the first game, it was like I just played yesterday. Same view, same feeling. Except for the shortness of breath, minor groin pulls, and dead arm, of course.
  Even though we won both games (barely), we were quite awful and pretty rusty, but that's to be expected after a lengthy layoff. Even our Ball Busting and Shit-Giving were off a little ("You suck, Hammy! Get off the field" = Good Insult. "Too bad that umpire didn't get hurt worse in her car accident." = Bad Insult). But it's early. We'll get it all together.
  Now if I can just get the shooting pains in my legs to stop...
