Am off to a baseball game tonight even though the weather man says there might be snow.

WTF, Michigan! Snow!? Let's anthropomorphize the weather for long enough to kill it.

I bought some of those Star Wars dark chocolate M&Ms yesterday. I have to admit that based on culinary taste alone the Sith get my allegiance over the Jedi. Sure I love peanuts with my chocolate but dark wins out over milk any day of the week.

Did you know that there aren't decent movies coming out this week? Thank goodness Hitchiker's Guide comes out next weekend. However, I notice that Millions has finally appeared at my local theater. I might have to check it out after I get out of the All Day Exam of Doooooom tomorrow. If I have any brain cells left.

Speaking of the Exam of Dooooooom, am still in very minor freak-out mood. Have come to the conclusion that I will either know things or I will not and the fact of the matter is I've spent the past 25 years of my life accumulating the kind of information, mind-set and experience that would serve me well in a job like that so either it takes or it doesn't. If this doesn't work out I suppose I could always go to law school;-). Or I really could run away and start the Revolution.

What baseball game did you go to? I watched the Michigan vs. Ohio State game some when I was out to dinner that night.

You DID?!!!!! OMG! I was so totally there. We had seats directly behind home plate. The fifth inning was fabulous. Poor Buckeyes, but what can you expect from people who are named after nuts?

And how are you doing? Been meaning to leave my sentiments of commiseration.

That's awesome that you were there. We watched the last three innings on a television at the restaurant. Michigan killed them. I was amazed how many balls were hit all the way to the warning track. Aluminum bats are insane.

I'm doing okay. I went out last night with my neighbor and some friends of hers, and that was fun. I haven't been out in ages.

Shucks, you just missed us. We left after the sixth inning because the weather was just getting foul. That and U-M's domination was already secure. hail, hail to Michigan the champions of the west

Going out is good and exciting. Wish I had some pithy words of comfort that would make everything better but since I don't I will instead continue trying to distract you with shiny, silly things.

Shiny, silly things make the world go 'round. =)

Sadly, it was the first time I've gone out to something that wasn't either dinner or a film in all of 2005. I am a horribly boring person.

Eggzactly.

*squints at life* You know, I could pretty much say the same thing. I think I'd better get out and do something before I end up alone in a big house with a bunch of cats.

I'd have computers, not cats. I suppose it's all the same thing, though. They both like mice.

*groan* ba dump bump.

Come on, now. You've had enough exposure to my humor to know that's hardly the worst I can come up with -- even on short notice. =)

Oh, I know. I simply feel contractually obligated to react to all puns like that. I blame my father, I really do. :-D

[hjcallipygian.livejournal.com]

Well, you know. S'all good.

I usually react to puns by ducking, since it's most likely I made the pun and someone is about to throw something at me.

quack, quack

Heh. One of my best friends from high school and college did not get along with ducks at all. They, for some reason, liked to attack him when he was near them. Weird stuff.
