Barry

Just watched Barry Bonds hit his 756th home run. It’s very odd to stop a game in the middle of an inning to play a video of Hank Aaron. The whole thing was odd, and I couldn’t help but hope Barry was gonna come out and say, “…and I want to thank BALCO…”

New Balance

What a wonderful day I had today, I couldn’t tell you why. Yesterday was bad, today was good.

Awoken by the alarm, starting the day off with the leftover procrastination from the night before. Finished my assignment for 8:00am class and found that for the first time all semester, stressless. Enthused, walking to class, making good morning phone calls. Eyes wide, without caffeine, but the hot undrinken coffee held tight in the left hand. Dancing in my head, jumping up the stairs, and gliding into class. The verbs were spat for hours, meaningless, but spat. In the meantime, the piping hot drink began to finish the awakening process. The same coffee though, began its acidic journey through, causing discomfort. When grains are away, coffee plays and plays, creates a ruckus. Class dissipates but discomfort remains. Before work, bathroom cubicle. Completely necessary, with lots of time, unloading. Busy though, Metro opened towards the end, Sudoku in the cube before work. Silence and numbers.

I heard someone come in and as they approached the stall next to me I thought it would be funny if it were my roommate. I looked below the stall wall and realized that it wasn’t my roommate, who normally wears his new grey new balance sneaks. Then someone else came into the bathroom and he went to the urinal, and I saw his shoes too.

He was wearing grey new balance shoes. Not my roomate, but grey new balance’s for sure.

Sudoku is a fun numbers game. Silence and numbers. Sudoku.

You can play sudoku online at websudoku…funfunfun!

Here is a nice video clip also. Moooooooo!

RLS

For the sake of knowledge…

Are your legs keeping you up at night?® Do you dread long business meetings, going to the movies, or traveling on an airplane because you know your restless legs won’t let you sit still? You just know you’ll have to get up to relieve the discomfort in your restless legs — disturbing your work colleagues, other moviegoers, and fellow passengers.

If this sounds familiar, you may have Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), which includes mild, moderate, and severe symptoms and affects approximately 1 in 10 adults in the U.S. RLS is a common medical condition characterized by an uncontrollable urge to move the legs when sitting or lying down.

I just saw this commercial on the telescreen machine. I was unaware that such a problem existed. There is a cure, though. It’s a pill called Requip…lovely…
