Sometimes...

Sometimes in life, things go wrong. You may have had an idea of what was to occur, a plan that you had in mind. But it just didn't quite happen that way. In fact, it completely miscontrued. There was a fork in the road and you just jumped into the thornbrush on the side, hoping to find that rose.

Sometimes, you just have to keep on pushing ahead.

I know that's what I had to do when the blender I ordered from Amazon didn't come through. So I bought shoes. And they made me oh so happy.


I wish this was a joke.

Yeah, so the dude didn't send me my thing, right. SO i wrote to amazon and they were like, "Yo, we know your pain, for we are humans as well. Here's a refund." i thought that was AWESOME. refunds on credit cards are what i live for. cuz i hate credit cards. they make my life complete. completely suck.

oh yeah, gay marriage.

Once Upon A Time There Was No Time


yeah, i thought that was nice. finding neverland was a great movie.

Well, I have a job. And it is quite the workload. My boss is a genius. I'm not surprised that he was named one of the who's who of lawyers. I'll update more later. I'm so tired. Plus finding neverland emotionally drains me.

Just When You Thought You Knew...

Wow. So Brasil. Gone. Out. Fin. What's up with that? I wasn't at home when they played but my wonderful mother recorded the game for me (I love her, but don't tell her I said that, ew love) and I watched it and Brasil, man, Brasil had so many chances. So many. But nothing. Nothing. Absolutely nothing. And you'd think with alllllll those videos of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho running rampant across the internet that they would be able to win games without breaking sweats or having to lace up their shoes more than once. And will somebody get Ronaldinho some braces? I know, I know, appearances don't matter. Have you seen how he works with the ball? It's absolutely beautiful, borderline sexy. No, no it is sexy. It's downright in-your-face pure magic. Pure. Pure.

And you thought nothing pure came from South America.

Summer is going by way too fast. I was about to say it's almost July but then I looked at the positioning of the stars and saw that it was ALREADY July! Where did June go? Where in God's Good Name did June go?! It's like May came, I turned 20, and then June was like, "Hey guys, Prince is playing at the park. See you next year!" and just hopped along on its merry little way. Just for Prince. Would you do that for Prince? I'm not sure if I would or not. Borderline would.

So I have an internship at a law office doing actual work. It is amazingly incredible. It's heavy stuff, the law field. I met a couple clients and its completely interesting meeting new people and realizing there are actually people like that in the world. I could write a book about them. No, a series! People will come back for more. For what? To read about themselves? Yeah! People LOVE reading about themselves. For example, lets insert your name here *YOUR NAME*. This is now about you. And you are reading this. Why are you so happy reading about yourself? What's so great about your name being in printed letters? It is not that you yourself are reading about yourself, but the chance that somebody else out there is reading about yourself that makes you so excited. And you think deep and profound about that person..."I wonder what they look like? Will I ever meet them? Will we get married, have a couple kids, realize we weren't meant for each other and I'll runaway so I don't have to pay child support? God Bless Canada for being so close and so similar to America."

Oh yeah, I have been working out a lot this summer. I'm trying to get toned up and fat down for Scotland. I gotta be amazing in futbol before I get there. Them Europeans not only are really good in futbol but you just can't understand a word they're saying. My brother went into a British McDonald's one day and asked for a Sprite and the cashier lady said, "Excuse me?" and he said, "Could I have a Sprite please?" and she said, "Come again?" and then the manager was right there and he said, "Can't you understand? He wants water." True story. From then on, my brother was a changed man.

Have you ever drank something out of a cup thinking it was something else but it wasn't? One time I drank milk thinking it was going to be Sprite or something else and man that tasted nasty. Speaking of Sprite and millions of dollars, if any big name corporation with lots of money wants me to advertise for them by saying their name once or twice here or there then by all means get in contact with me and we'll write numbers on pieces of paper and pass them back and forth.

reader, I passed you a note. Now you pass me one back.

Mutually,

Salaam
