Barkeep, I need a strong one

Okay, so I spoke too soon. Yesterday may have been swell, but today really sucked. It wasn't even one of those "Awww, your day was AWFUL, honey!" days. It was one of those "Damn, that sucks" days.

On a scale of one to ten? Eh, we'll give it a 5. Let's just say it could have been a lot worse.

Shitty thing #1: I lost one of my notebooks.
I carry around a couple of steno pads with all of my notes, TDLs, idea lists, brainstorms, and even some calendars I tucked between the pages. Plus, in the front I have the rough drafts of the articles I wrote for Youth and Government earlier this year. My notebooks are sentimental to me. I rarely crumple up ANY of the pages, even if they only have notes back and forth between me and one of my friends. I just don't do it.
In conclusion, losing one of my notebooks is like losing a toe. I can live without it, but it still feels really weird.

Shitty thing #2: My favorite baseball player, Chase Utley, broke his hand today.
Probably the BEST player on the Phillies, today Chase was hit by a Nationals pitcher (little bastard). The pitcher was severely messed up angry, because then he hit Ryan Howard as well. Chase played the entire game, but an x-ray revealed that he had broken his hand. He's my favorite player, and I was severely upset when I found out he was going to be out for a couple weeks. HEAL SOON, YOU AMAZING SON OF A BITCH YOU!

Shitty thing #3: I'm out of clean underwear.
Okay, so I wasn't supposed to tell you that. But I'm struggling for washer/dryer time over here.

Shitty thing #4: It seems as if I've forgotten how to drive.
I was doing fine for a while, but now I keep messing up and almost crashing into things. The other day, I was driving and I saw a pretty hot guy off to the side of the road. Well, I wasn't paying enough attention when I made my turn, so I almost ran into a day care. Sorry kids.

Shitty thing #5: I still haven't seen Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
And I'm the only one.

Shitty thing #6: I really need more books.
Specifically, the sequels to all my recent favorites. I still have books from my library, but I haven't been able to get through them. I need something with substance!

Here's to hoping tomorrow is BETTER!

Kick some serious ass, and don't forget to take names

Holy shiza. I can't believe we did that. I won't keep you in suspense...but today...(Dramatic pause)...I quit fastpitch softball. I'll start at the beginning. Yesterday we had our first official slowpitch game (aka for my father's team). I went, because honestly--how can you not go to your own father's game? Not to mention, the fastpitch game was a make-up that we didn't know about until last week. So we--my older sister Devyn, a friend of mine named Ashley--went to our slowpitch game. After all, my dad needed us and we would've had to forfeit if we didn't have enough girls to play. So we sort of ditched the fastpitch game. But it was NBD, seriously. Ashley NEVER plays in a fastpitch game. She sits the bench EVERY game, yet shows up for every practice, all the time. So naturally she's going to go to the game where she gets a chance to play, and not to mention she's good at it. My sister, on the other hand, is a senior. She's paid her dues. S...

Just another Monday

I took some pictures today, figuring I knew that I wouldn't feel up to posting something gigantic. And I'm not. We had another softball game this afternoon, and even though I played for about...3½ minutes, I'm still wiped from having to spend the entire game on my feet (and add that up to my day and school, and it's cause for exhaustion). My 3½ minutes in the spotlight was when my coach decided that we were losing bad enough (We lost 17-10 or something like that) that it wouldn't do any harm to put the Junior Varsity Princess (aka moi, if you're that thick) into the game. The batter's box, to be precise. I guess I wasn't good enough to defend the field. :( Whatever. So, I must've been a lot more nervous than I thought I was, because everyone kept telling me to relax. I didn't feel nervous, but when I struck out (I went down swingin', ya bastards!) and returned to the dugout, I realized that my hands were shaking. Well, here are the pictures.....

Go on and lose it

"Everybody makes mistakes/Everybody has those days..." -Hannah Montana Yeah Miss Montana? Well, I doubt you've had the day I've had. Enter: Wake up at 6:00 in the morning on a Saturday. Get in the shower, dress, and eat breakfast. Wonder why I'm up so early? I have a Youth and Government shindig. I get ready to go, and then wake my dad up at 7:30 and tell him we should go soon. I have to be there by 9 am, and it's about a half-hour away. That translates to an hour or so with me driving (still on my permit, so Dad has to come) and the fact that we don't exactly know where the Anita Tuvin Schlecter building is. I drove fine on the way there, no one died. =) We get there, and we were kind of lost--but that wasn't that big of deal. We were still early and we found the place all right. I also found my friend from Y&G who had told me what was going on today. We stood outside the ATS building...and it was locked. There wasn't a soul in sight. Me: ...
