I noticed yesterday before I went to workout that I have a pet peeve I wasn't aware of. But then, in a single moment of clarity and recognition, there it was...spelled out to my conscious mind: I hate boring away messages. Some people, who will go nameless, use the same freaking away message all the time. Come on lads and lassies, be a little creative. You don't even have to be original, just throw some funny quote or a good line by a good comedian in there. It isn't difficult and it reflects well on you. Especially those of you who are online 24/7. Come on. You know you can. Just do it. Zip zip.
The Cubs are back and looking quite good. Five in a row with good defense, timely hitting, and stellar pitching. Although, each time Mr. Beltran comes in it is an adventure. Now for the Cardinals to come back to Earth.
In Other News...
a) I finally found the SNF hiking trail out near Bald Knob Cross. Mama Cass and I are going to hit it up Friday afternoon I think. I am excited. I have heard great things.
b) The weather is supposed to cool off a bit, but in exchange we get 15% more humidity. I don't know if that's a fair trade or not.
c) I am currently beating Jennie in our never ending Trivial Pursuit game. We play 30-35 minutes a day with the hardest version EVER. So it could take a while. It is good fun though.
d) Ben Stiller needs to pack it in. These stupid voices and stupid roles are becoming ridiculous and predictable. Wait, wait...let me guess: he gets hit in the head while pretending to be a tough guy? Where have I seen that before. Hmmm.
Musical Moron Twin anecdotal listenings: Nick Drake sucks balls, so I went back to Waylon and Willie.
