I cannot stop dancing. The past 2 weeks I have been dancing whenever and wherever. I am going to credit my fever for dance to the death of MJ coming up June 25th. I have listened to nothing but MJ all week. Guy is great. I miss him.


I have been absolutely killing my kitchen floor with dance moves. Whoever lives below me must be pissed, but I bet they are saying 'that kid can dance'.


I wish the world we lived in allowed us to break out in choreographed dances from music videos at the most random places. Everyone would be alot happier and the world would be a much cooler place. I can already see me in the 'Love is a Battlefield' dance while I waited in line at the grocery store.


I learned to dance by watching MJ videos and BET. And I am damn proud of it. After this past weekend, I am glad I have the ability to dance with rhythm rather than being able to solve a word problem correctly or understand the stock market. It is really depressing watching people dance that think they can dance. But it is hilarious watching people that can't dance, but know they can't dance cause they just don't give it a shit. I like those people.


I remember my first dance circle. Do you? I was 11. I was in 6th grade. I was at Nite Spot. I had been going to Nite Spot for the last few months but never participated in the dance circle or 'Doing the Butt' because I was too nervous. So each day I would ride the bus home and sit at the front so I could hear the radio. I would ask Kathy the bus driver to put on 94.5 a few stops before my house, that way I could hear the last song playing before I got off the bus. If I liked it, I would run home, slam my bedroom door, lock it, and turn up the radio and dance in front of the mirror. I did this for weeks upon weeks until I taught myself at least 1 move the fifth grade girls would really dig. During that stretch, I taught myself how to body roll(its actually all in the knees) and some move where I kick my legs out, I don't think it has a name. I finally told myself I would enter the dance circle the next Nite Spot, no matter what. Saturday night came and I waited, and waited, and waited for the right song to come on. After hours of standing up against the wall, watching guys impress chicks with their Running Man and such, my song came on....


'Every Little Step' by Bobby Brown. When I tell you my face lit up and I ripped off my Georgetown Hoyas chalkline, you might have thought it was on fire. But in reality, my feet were on fire. I pushed a couple dudes out of the way and I went to work. The crowd went nuts and it was at that moment I knew I was meant for the dance circles. From then on out, I knew I had a gift for a white kid. And after this weekend, watching some guys dance, I am so glad I have rhythm and not the ability to balance a checkbook or be able to ice skate. I can dance and I am going to dance my face off wherever I can on Friday night in honor of Michael Jackson.


Ah Celts in 6 still..........and Bieber "Somebody to Love", I can't get enough of it. I need help.

Its Game 7 and I can't listen to Stu Scott for 3 hours


It's Game 7 of the NBA Finals and I have done the best I can to avoid all sports talk radio, all ESPN pregame and other nonsense about the game tonight. I just feel like it is all pointless and none of it comes true. Game 7s are the most unpredicatable games. And to listen to a bunch of reporters talk about 'stepping up', 'leaving it on the court', and 'no turning back' gets to be pretty boring. So in order to pass the next 3 hours, I figured I would just write about anything.


As a kid with male pattern baldness, I get real annoyed with guy's hair-dos. I say to myself, you have this tremendous gift of hair and thats how you choose to wear it. Thats how I feel when I see Justin Bieber. Now, I like Bieber(its a phase, I swear), but his hair-do makes my head spin. Throw some LA Looks in it or something man, change it up. I hope all his hair falls out soon and he has only pictures of that hair-do to remember his hair. Disgusting.


Celts win tonight. I had to get it out there so I can tell people 'I told you so'.


My dad texted me to come by the house after work because he made a couple sandwiches. And by a 'couple' he meant............18. I know have 13 cold cut sandwiches in my fridge. They will be gone by Tuesday.


I don't like provolone cheese. It tastes funny to me.


I had a guy tell me he tried renting rollerblades. I found that weird. People still 'blade'? You can rent rollerblades?


I need to visit Rollerworld soon. Who is in?


I have never been on skis, skates, or rollerblades. I would be like a newborn calf trying to walk if I were to lace a pair up. I am putting it on my bucket list.


Nate Robinson plays big minutes tonight.


Oreo cookies are slowly creeping up to the #1 spot on my favorite cookie list. Chewy Chips Ahoy are holding it right now, but not by much. I should be writing a Top 20 Cookie list soon.


How good is that Alejandro song by Lady Gaga? Shit.


Someone told me about Hot 97.7 now being Hot 87.7 now. Let me tell you, their Back in the Day Buffet is light years better than 94.5s the last couple days. Just pure early 90s slow jams. H-Town. Shai. Silk. Bobby Brown. I forgot how great a song Tender Roni was. I think I want to be Every Little Step Bobby Brown for halloween just so I can do the dance and wear that outfit. But I have yet to fulfill my dream of being the Karate Kid shower..........one day.


Look out for Lamar Odom tonight. He scares me for whatever reason.


I am making it a mission to learn how to Pop N Lock by Longden's wedding in October. I need a new move for the dance floor. I have realized doing 'The Worm' is the end of the line for me. When I go to that in a dance off like I did 3 weeks ago, I am toast. Need a new move and its coming.


So let me get this straight, there is a new Michael Jackson video game coming out and all you have to do is dance like him. I hope it comes with the glittered outfit from the Rock With Ya video. That is on my Christmas List.


I had an old lady push me out of the way of a door the other day. You really can't yell at her cause she won't hear you and you can't really retaliate because you could kill her. It was a lose lose situation.


It's fuckin Game 7. Celts win by 3. Enjoy the weekend.


And with the recent events and conversations I have had with friends, I need to say this.




'The attitude you bring towards life, determines the attitude life brings towards you.'


We all need to start being nicer to each other and being there for one another. No arguement is too big to say goodbye to a loved one. We only have one life and we can't control the future, only the present. When your feet hit the floor in the morning, be thankful for your health, your family and your friends. Live in the moment. I am not saying live each day like its your last, but live it, thats all. Say how you feel, tell your family you care about them, don't think just do. Go after what you want and have no regrets about it. Happiness truly is the key to life.

Get your popcorn ready...


The NBA Finals are here. I like the NBA. I listen to sports talk radio all day long while I work. I played basketball up until the 10th grade. I led my team to a WBA Finals game when I was 11. I wore Pumps. I own a healthy collection of Air Jordans. I won a 3pt shootout. I shot a 3 for a T in Warrior Country as well. All these things make me feel as if I am more than qualified to write a 2010 NBA Finals prediction blog right?




It does not so I am just going to tell you things that I am going to watch for and hope they come true....


LET ME HEAR IT!!!!!



-How many times Doc says the word 'together' tonight during the timeouts.

-If Celtic goes down, count how long it takes for a Celtic to help him up and then if a Laker goes down. The Cs got back to the RAH RAH TEAM mode once May rolled around and its showed.

-If Rasheed knocks down his 1st shot of each game he seems to let that carry him, if not...heads up.

-Perk Face. Perk Dribble. Perk Get Blocked.

-I cant hate Ron Artest because he wears #37 in honor of MJ for making Thriller stay #1 on the charts for 37 straight weeks. Not to mention he has a rap song called 'Michael Michael Michael, you my N-word'. Kazaa that shit.

-How Phil Jackson decides to handle Rondo. I think Jackson is such a cocky bastard he will just lay off Rondo with Kobe and play 5 on 4. Look for Rondo to attack that and use his floater in the lane, and not settle for the jumpshot.

-KG. Just watch him eat up Gasol, that fuckin llama.

-I love the Celtics bench in this series. They can go another 5 deep, while LA only has Odom and Shannon Brown to really rely on. If Bynum can only go 9-12 mins a game, that will put more pressure on Odom to play major minutes. There is just something about Glen Davis that makes me wanna hug him after every play.

-O/U on Khloe Kardashian being shown each game. I will put it at 2.5. I am gonna take the over, she is pregnant and Lamar takes his time at the free throw line.

-I love the Sheed 3pt basket gesture. Watch for it.

-Nate Robinson after every 3pt shot made by the bench. Dude just breaks down into the robot or something. RESPECT.

-Vujacic and his rat face. He will play at a very weird time and he will look to do something dirty. It will happen this series.

-Kobe vs Pierce. Its the main storyline for me. Kobe is seeking revenge on not only '08 but on Pierce for stealing his Finals MVP. Pierce immediately said he should be mentioned in the same breath as Kobe and Lebron after the '08 Finals. I dont like that he said that because the Black Mamba does not forget that shit. The Celtics need to do what they did to Wade and James, let Kobe get his, but really D up on the others. Its the best supporting cast they have seen these playoffs and its going to make or break the series.

-Doc vs Phil. I still dont know what Phil Jackson does as a coach beside sit there. I can see Doc coaching, I don't really see Phil coaching, just trying his zen bullshit to get the refs to call something in the next game.

-Ray Allen. 18+pts, the Celtics win. Its a lock.


I like the Celtics in 6. They steal Game 1 and ruin Phil Jackson's record of being 47-0 in series after he wins Game 1. Its a stat. I heard it. And it ends tonight.


Celts in 6. Too deep. Too hungry. Too many matchups in their favor.

X Factor-The Bench



Its the Finals and I could not be anymore excited to be witnessing another Lakers/Celtics final. All I really wish for is Bob Costas to do the play by play, NBC to pick up the coverage and for them to play that 90s NBA theme music. LET ME HEAR IT!!!

GOTTA GET BACK IN TIME!


Sooooooooooooooo. I'm back.




Boy has time gone by since my last entry. I fully admit, it has been way too long. But I have made a re-commitment to this blog and hope I can apply myself to keep up with my thoughts and experiences to share with the world. Let's just dive right into this thing and hit you with a potpourri of thoughts.


-I saw a fat kid walking around the Tufts campus last week sporting a short that said 'JUMBO FAN'. I laughed.


-I returned to the gym and saw a dude walk in with 3 gatorades, a water bottle, an empty water bottle with some powder in it. Then proceeded to watch him put down and pick up all 5 bottles every time he changed machines. There has to be an easier way right? How about just 1 bottle, thats just me though.


-My mother goes to HOME GOODS every weekend. I went today and will never be returning. I don't know how she does it because I will assume most of the stuff is the same week to week.


-Who would have thought a simple purchase of a decorative shower curtain, coupled with a pair of hand towels would make my bathroom go from the YMCA to a likeable bathroom.


-If you dont't have any Bieber on your IPOD, you are missing out. I'm just saying.


-Have you seen the newest Ciara video? Do yourself a favor and watch it.


-I have my Windows Player on right now and Ginuwine just came on. What happened to that guy? And why do I have Ginuwine on my playlist? How old is this playlist!


-I have a buddy in barber school call me last week to practice on me. I am bald and he knew that before he called. I did let him use a straight razor blade on my face though, I highly recommend it.


-My brother passed out giving blood last week. This only confirmed he will not be in the delivery room when his first child is born in August.


-I'M GONNA BE AN UNCLE!!! WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT!


-I can finally fulfill my fantasy of being Uncle Jesse now.


-I never realized how difficult it is to try and prepare a meal for yourself every night of the week without it being microwaveable. I like my Hungy Jack dinners and Mama Celestes like the next guy, but I also like living life.


-That reminds me I need an apron and cookbook cause I will become a good cook. I have no choice.


-Cals came over today and we played StreetFighter 4 for PS3. I own the game, Cals never played it. He beat me 17 straight games. RESPECT.


-I went to Whiskey Priest this past weekend. I never had a bigger urge to dance my face off, unfortunately Whiskey Priest has the WORST jukebox ever constructed. Even the employees didn't know how it worked. The place quickly went from a 7 to a 3 in my mind.


-98 Degress is now playing . And I am not changing it.


-I still can't believe that I get to witness another Celtics/Lakers NBA Final. I hope to blog about the matchup before Game 1 on Thursday. I like to think I know my NBA, we will find out.


-I want to get tattoo. I will have one by the end of the summer. But it will not be a chinese symbol or barbed wire, I heard those are no longer cool.


-My new apartment complex is basically a nursing home because I have not seen one person younger than 72, so its quiet. And all the cars parked in the lot are crooked.


-I wish I took up the saxaphone when I was in 7th grade, I think by now I would be really really good.


-I need to start singing karaoke because I sounded really good in the car today.


- I said Lee Dewyze would win Idol, just sucks no one was around to hear it, but I said it.


-Lee Dewyze will vanish faster than Taylor Hicks. Just a prediction.


-I went to GNC to buy some products and the clerk was able to sell me on some protein drink because he was able to gain like 200lbs on his leg press. I don't even know what the leg press looks like but I want to gain 200lbs on my leg press!


-Has the public forgiven Chris Brown yet because I need for him to start performing on live shows soon.


-Hey, Timberlake! Where the fuck is your new album? I can't hear 'YOU ME ME YOU ME YOU YOU ME YOU YOU ME ME YOU YOU ME ME ME ME YOU YOU YOU YOU' anymore.


-I bought a coffee table today. It completely changed my apartment to awesome.


-I wore my MJ shirt out last week to a bar. No one gave a shit because I think they all thought I got it after he died. Not true. Unfortunately there is no way for me to proof this, so the 3 people that know this will be enough.

IDOL ME.


Its Tuesday. Do you know what that means? No, its no fishstick night. Its American Idol Performance night!! I will admit, I am an Idol junkie. Not to the point where I have ever voted, but enough of a junkie to watch it religously. I like to think I know what is going to happen, so with that said, I am going to rank the remaining 8 contestants. I would have done this earlier with the Top 13 but I had to wait for my girl Meghan Joy to be voted off the show. I did not want to be bias in any form or fashion. Ok. Lets break it down.


THANKS FOR PLAYING

Scott MacIntyre- We get it dude. You are blind and you can play the piano...well with your eyes closed(too harsh huh). Is anybody else a little freaked out by him. Don't get me wrong, I think its incredible what he can do with his disability, but do what Stevie and Ray did, throw some shades on or something. But your voice. Its not enough man. You make every song sound the exact same. At one point, I thought you sang the same song back to back weeks. If you want to a chance to stick around, ditch the piano, stand in front of a mic stand(it can act as a cane too) and just sing. No piano in the song either. Good chance you peace out after this week.


Anoop Desai- You had me early on with the Bobby Brown performance because I am huge fan of 90s R&B, but ever since then.....I cant stand you. I pretty much lost all hope for you when you butchered MJ the first week. Although its not your fault. I hate when Idol makes them sing songs from an artist who just cannot be touched. They tell them all the time, don't sing Whitney or Mariah cause they are too big and too distinct, but hey, lets give them a week of Michael Jackson. HELLO! He is the most recognizable voice of all time. But Anoop, you picked Beat It and made me want to be beat you. Just stop. And then you pick Usher out of all the songs you can pick, you pick Usher. Cmon bro. Do you. And you is not a formerly colored black man or a soulful black man. You could be done after this week. Who dresses you by the way? Scott MacIntyre?


STOP SCREAMING AND MAYBE...

Allison Iraheta- When you sing, you scream. enough said. Too young. Moving on....


GIRLS RULE THE WORLD

Matt Giraud- The only reason you are still standing is because the little girls think you sound like Justin Timberlake and keep voting for you. And you wear scarfs and silly hats too. But in all honesty, I like you man. You got that soulful voice and stuff, but JT you are not. Stick with the keyboard and bring me some soul. You can sing man, but sooner or later the little girls are gonna realize you are not J Tims......tick tock tick tock.


Kris Allen- Alright. I got you lumped in this category because I can't put you in your own category and I can't put you in a better one. You got the chick votes. Hands down. Wife or no wife. You may have pulled out the wife card too early, but I feel ya on wanting to get it out there that you are married. You are the sleeper I feel in this competition. You just need to keep doing what you are doing, but lets get a little upbeat and move around the stage. You just stand or sit. MOVE. But if you can't dance or have rhythm, then sit doggie, sit.


YOU CAN DO IT....BUT.....

Lil Rounds- I love ya Lil. Love ya. But you are screwed. Every other word from the judges is about being like Mary J. You can't do that. There is only one Mary J. I know what they are saying, but Im sorry sista, you can't do it. I will say you need to throw some funk into it, some blackness. What was that Celine Dion shit last week??? BREAK IT DOWN. Throw some stank on it and just work it out. You are great, but it may not be enough. I am pulling for ya because I do trust a big butt and a smile.


I HATE YOU BUT....

Adam Lambert- Man Alive you like boys huh. But thats not why I hate you. I hate you because you scream like guy who got his dick stuck in a vaccuum....although you may like that. But bro, you can sing and you are different. Thats what the people want. They want weirdo. Look at whats his face from New Orleans who won....the guy who looks like someones uncle......TAYLOR! Thanks Google. He fuckin' won and it was because he was great entertainer. You got stage presence man. But stop screaming. Please. Now I hate dogs, fear them actually, but I even feel for them when you yelp like 12 octaves high. Right now you are the lead pony in this race.....but........


GOKE ME

Dan Fuckin' Gokey- You my friend, dumb glasses aside, are awesome. I get the goosebumbs when you sing. You blow it out. Man, I wish I could fuckin hold a note like this. You can't dance, but man oh man, you can saaaaaang. Not to mention you got the whole 'my wife just died' story in the backpocket. But you have not broken it out yet, you have not sang that song yet thats dedicated to her. You have just done what the judges told you and bring it. You win in my book. You won't get my vote but you win. GOKES. GOKES. GOKES.



Can we someone shoot Paula tonight?? She makes no sense and takes 6 days to get her words out. Get rid off all the judges except Simon. He knows what he is talking about. Listen to him tonight, guarantee you agree with at least 98% of the things he says. EASILY.

Top 25 Cereals


I am taking the easy way out today and I am just going to copy an old blog I wrote up when Myspace was the cool thing to do. Its a list of my Top 25 Cereals(with help from others). I reviewed it and deemed no other cereals that have come out recently are worthy to crack the list. Opinions welcome.



THE TOP 25 CEREALS
I like to consider myself a cereal expert. There is not a day where I do not have cereal, whether it be for breakfast, a quick snack, a pregame ritual before taking the field, I need cereal. This past week at work I decided to compile a list of my Top 25 Cereals. I know cereal can be a hot button topic for most people, so I figured I would lay it on the table and let arguements begin.
After hours of research and forming my own personal point scale, I came up with the following list of cereals. The point system was based upon the following criteria
-overall taste
-number of marshmallows per serving
-number servings one can consume in one sitting without feeling guilty
-Milk Conversion:does the milk become something else after eating the cereal. Is it drinkable?
-toys and back cover games available
-Cereal box character. Does it make sense? Is the character needed to sell?
DISCLAIMER:This is my opinion and by no shape or form was my opinion swayed by outside influences, I came up with this list while at work which involves me in an office by myself for 10 hours...........I had the time.


25. Corn Pops: simple, yet affective. the difficulty of opening the box in a neat fashion really makes it difficult to put it any higher.


24. Cinnamon Mini Buns: it is like eating at Cinnabon each morning and they always had a fun maze on the back of the cereal box


23. Kaboom: always find that one gem in Gram's closet every Sunday morning, this was it. Clown theme. fruity edible smiley faces. instant happiness.


22. WaffleCrisp: no one is going to ask you to leggo their eggo when you are eating this cereal. however the milk did become a little too sweet towards the end.


21. Dino Pebbles: A classic cereal for a very underrated cartoon character.Good to see Dino get some justice in the cereal world.Vanilla flavored cereal with quite possibly the most marshmallows per serving in any cereal.


20. Rice Krispies w/bananas: here me out on this. you cant beat Snap Crackle Pop first of all, second of all, you could eat about 8 servings without getting full. And is there anything more fun than realizing you still got a chunk of banana in the bottom of the bowl on the last spoonful. small slice of heaven.


19. Smor'z: ahhh, graham crackers with a chocolate swirled marshallow...slight erection.


18. Frosted Flakes: some may think this is a little too low for Tony, but if you were not paying attention as you chewed, you could wind up with a cut or two on the roof of your mouth. Plus they failed miserably with the chocolate version of Frosted Flakes. What saves them are the baseball cards they would put inside. THEEYRRRRRRRRRRRR GREAT!


17. Honey Nut Cheerios: I believe my record for a sitting is 9 bowls, enough said.


16. Honey Comb: really have nothing to say about Honeycomb, its just fucking good okay.


15. Froot Loops: never understood the reason for Toucan Sam, probably cause of his colorful beak, but I can appreciate what he was trying to accomplish with his cereal. not a fan of the blue loop though, what the fuck fruit is that??


14. Cap N Crunch: I know another classic not to crack the Top 10, but have you ever tried to drink the milk after eating this, just not very good and I also noticed it is just a shitty cereal when sogginess starts to set in. You are a fuckin Captain, cant have your cereal going soft on you.


13. Peanut Butter Cap N Crunch: The Captain clearly took 90210's David Cereal advice to heart when he said 'Switch it Up'. well done. good change of pace.


12. Cocoa Puffs: I never went 'CUCKOO' for Cocoa Puffs, but i did enjoy its ability to give me chocolate milk at the end. what keeps it out of the Top 10 is that some boxes just didnt taste very good, did you ever notice some puffs were sweeter than others?? maybe it was me.


11. Fruity Pebbles: sogginess keeps it out of the Top 10, but no one can deny how great each spoonful tasted. but like Froot Loops, it went to a blue pebble, why Fred, why?


10. Cocoa Pebbles: i know what you are thinking, why is this ahead of Fruity Pebbles, its just chocolate. Well first of all, do you see a blue pebble in the box, ummm no. and second of all the milk was great to drink after. And I must say, I could eat at least 5 bowls of it without thinking twice, in my household, it would be the first box opened and it was a race to the kitchen in the morning to make sure you got the last bowl.


9. Honey Smacks: I dig'em. but it presented the same difficulty as Corn Pops when opening a fresh box/back. Maybe I am just retared, but that silver bag has been a thorn in my side for years, but like the Chewy Chips Ahoy plastic tray is when you need to slide it back in the bag after getting to a row. I have woken up my neighbors at 3am I think while wrestling with the tray...its so fuckin loud.


8. Oreo O's: speaking of cookies, the only cookie possible that could easily be converted into a cereal. Simply ingenious to put the creamy center in forms of sprinkles on top of the O shaped cereal. unreal.


7. Apple Jacks/Cookie Crisp: Fuckin' good. enough said/Cookie Crisp a great cereal, sogginess places a slight factor in its ranking along with the size of the box, always thought they could expand the size of it.


6. Cinnamon Toast Crunch: Just an phenomenal cereal, but the sogginess factor comes into play. Love the cinnamon swirl, hate it when it goes soggy on ya. plus you need more milk than usual to get the exact cereal to milk ratio so that you arent eating dry cereal. not a cereal i would suggest to eat if you are at the bottom of the milk.


5. Cocoa Krispies: Its chocolate, it still snaps, it still crackles, it still pops and you get a great bowl of chocolate milk after. and that monkey on the box, love that fuckin guy.


4. Lucky Charms: Probably the greatest marshmallow taste teamed with oat cereal taste. they hit a homerun with this. Great character on the box, you cant hate Lucky. fantastic snacking cereal as well. I am almost speechless when it comes to this cereal. I love it, i love it, i love it.


3. Trix: The rabbit wasnt silly when he was trying to track down this delicious treat. My only knock with this cereal is the decision to go from the fruity balls to the fruity shapes. no need for it, we knew lemon was yellow, green was lime and so forth.


2. Reese Peanut Butter Puffs: The best candy to cereal in the history of cereals. So good, so rich, so tastey. so fuckin awesome.....i need to change my pants thinking about it.


1. Count Chocula: From the Count to the marshmallows to the little ghost shaped cereal. This cereal takes the cake in my cupboard. I was never a fan of his two friends, BooBerry and whatever the other fucking thing was. It was chocolately goodness with an incredible amount of marshmallows. The only cereal where I would purposely put the marshmallows aside til the end and still be happy while eating the ghosts. So fuckin good. They did it right. And I am a better person because of the amount of Count Chocula I have eaten over the years.


others receiving votes:Golden Grahams, Alpha Bits, Raisin Bran, Ice Cream Cone cereal, Mr T's. Teddy Grahams.
opinions are welcomed and encouraged.

If Doogie did it....

I probably should not even be blogging right now considering I am not in the greatest of moods, but Doogie Howser always, always, always wrote at the end of each episode no matter how tough of a day he had. With that said, I dont even know what I am going to blog about, I just know it needs to be done for my sanity.

I just attempted to watch Gran Turino with Clint Eastwood. Have you ever seen this film? The 45 mins I could barely stomach were awful. It was just Eastwood, old and wrinkly, saying racist things to people as he held a shotgun to their face. Its time for Eastwood to hang it up. It hurt me to watch him walking around and drooling his lines out of his mouth.

I went for a run today. In my head I was gone for an hour, but in reality it was 15 mins. Did you ever wonder what you looked like as you ran? Am I prancing? Do I look like a dinosaur right now chasing after his prey? Do I have too much arm swing? Ok I will have no arm swing. Wait you look crazy without an arm swing. I will arm swing, but not alot...side to side or up and down? Open hand or closed fist? There is a guy running at me, whats the proper running etiquette? Do I move or does he move? Fuck it, lets play chicken with him.
Me and running dont work well together.

I went for a walk today as well. I could not sit in my house alone after a phone call. All I wanted to do was walk around Thomas Park to calm down. It was nice, overlooking the city, no one else up there. So I thought. I sat on a bench, one of like 35 up there. I just wanted to chill, think, and stare. But this dude out of nowhere comes and sits next to me, starts asking me if I know what the giant block of concrete in front of us was. 'Do you know what this thing is? I see it from my place and wanted to check it out' 'No I dont, sorry'.............AWKWARD SILENCE FOR 6 MINS.
Like really dude? You are gonna ask me right now what this fuckin concrete structure is? Are we in a museum? Isnt there a giant plaque with a description on it? Go read it.

I went food shopping last month. I put myself in the express lane cause I only had a few items. The lady behind me and the cashier spark up a conversation as I am ringing my stuff up. This is how the conversation went..
'Hey Katie! Good to see you back at work'
'Hi, ya it has been a rought couple weeks'
'Ya what happened?'
'Oh well, my sister stole my identity and took all my money, so I had to fix that. Go to court and stuff. Sue her. Then my grandmother passed away.'
'Oh, Im sorry to hear that, well how is your dog doing, I love him'
'We have to put him down tomorrow....paper or plastic sir?'
'Life goes on right'
(Picking my jaw off the floor) 'Ah plastic...'
By far the most heart wrenching 5 mins I will ever have in the Express Lane at Stop n Shop. From now on, I buy more than 12 items and go in the normal line.

Saw Lady Gaga on Idol last week and I was disgusted. Just thought I would share that.
