Monday Meanderings

- i'm sure lots of people in this world have opinions as to what we'll drink in heaven (i WILL be there, by the way). my opinion: cream soda.

- my brother, big stew, turned 23 last week. finally, he's old enough to date.

- i love grocery stores. fabulous places really (although the jury is still not officially out on organic grocery stores). however, i do have one complaint: why exactly aren't the canned olives in the same area as the rest of the canned vegetables? i do not understand nor appreciate.

- last week my mom was in the 'spital. since she was so drugged up and couldn't be trusted, i had to sign the document where it said "responsible person." i'm expecting the perjury lawsuit to come at any time (is perjury the right word?).

- i watched a movie on bobby jones yesterday (it was actually quite good). it got me thinking. what would it be like to be truly great at something? what would it be like to know that you were one of the best in the world? hmm . . .

- why do people insist on setting me up. do i really come off as that socially handicapped and/or ugly?


- i greatly disenjoy july. it's a wasted month. heat, hay fever, and dead grass, that's all there is. independence day (and pioneer day) would be okay if it were in october or something, but how can i enjoy the signing of the declaration of independence when all i can think about is the heat, hay fever, and dead grass?

- one of my soccer players has to have surgery on her knee. out for the season. crap (sorry mom about the vulgarity).

- i leave for spain on thursday. i hope i don't hate it there.

You're a handsome guy, so that couldn't be the reason people insist on setting you up. Socially handicapped? Mmm, maybe. But my personal philosophy on the matter is that they think they know what you need in a woman better than you do;therefore, you need their help! Although, they obviously haven't chosen Mrs. Wright yet either so what does that tell ya?
Have fun in Spain! I wish I were going with you!

About the olives...
They are elitist.

Hey, Skinny, I have the PERFECT girl for you. Really! (I'm not just saying this, she's great!)

hey skinny: you better stop in new york on the way home from spain. oh and also, if you come to ny in july, you'll know that none of the grass is dead. it rains all the time and is very humid. so you'd probably like it here in july. but whatever, i've pretty much given up on you coming to visit here.

Skinny, I was wondering... if you had to never eat again or never sleep again which would you choose?

I think the word is forgery. Just sayin'.

i can't speak for the other folks, but i set you up 'cause i thought it might get you here to texas for a visit. turns out, it may have done just the opposite.
oh, by the way, she is still available.
however, i did hear that she really likes texas so you might end up havin' to use more apostrophes and get a cowboy hat.
