Day 118

It'll be a miracle if I can get through the summer and take a picture every day...

Picture: A baseball bat

Background: This has been sitting under my bed for a few reasons. When I first brought it up from the basement, my dad was probably wondering what in the world they were. Well, in case of zombies, intruders, or velociraptors, I've got something to defend myself with. Simple as that. And it's a Braves bat that I got from a game! That makes it even better, obviously.

Ignore the Dr. Seuss back scratcher to the right.

today's video is also about baseball...

Day 78

VIDEO GAMEZ ALL DAY. They made me late.

Picture: Hockey!

Background: Last night me and five other guys in the dorm all went to go see a Thrashers' game. Hockey is awesome, but the Thrashers really sucked last night. 6-1, and the one goal they got was within the last minute of the game. But at least they got the goal! -sigh- It was still pretty fun, and we got the seats and free popcorn/drink for only $7. Hurrah!

today's video is one of my favorite music videos of all time...

Day 75

To make up for yesterday's late update, it's an update prior to 1pm! You'd better be thankful, since this almost never happens.

Picture: ES PREP AND ADMISSIONS

Background: I looked at this and thought, "What on earth is ES PREP?" Another second later, I thought "Oh wait a minute. EST? Did someone steal the T at the end?" and then it hit me. TEST preparation...But at least my first instinct is guessing that a T was stolen from it somewhere. Like I said in one of the earlier posts, it's all over campus. Lots of signs without T's are a usual sight. It can get pretty funny. I know the Architecture Building is missing two very nice silver T's, and that signs for buildings have some easily stolen T's.

today's video is a trollin' soccer goal...

Day 64

Picture: Baseball (and some hockey)!

Background: I used to play Little League back before high school. I wasn't very good but I really liked to play. I got a couple trophies and things while I was there as you can see, as well as one or two gameballs. One of those (the one on the chair like thing behind the nesting doll of Chipper Jones) is the only home run I've ever hit. I was really, really happy when that happened. It really didn't even feel like a homerun...then it went over the fence. Pretty good day, I'd say.

It's storming outside. Lots of lightning, lots of weather warnings. Just came back from more hanging out. I forgot to mention this yesterday (because I was trying to post at 1:17am but missed) that I almost ran over two kids. It was dark, they were wearing dark clothes, and they weren't white, so they were honestly hard to see. I was pulling out of a turn lane at a light more worried about potential oncoming traffic; I was completely not suspecting some people could be so idiotic enough to cross that far from the crosswalk in dark clothes and not have a close call. It pissed me off - I could've gotten at least 30-40 points! Ah well.

today's video is a hilarious mash-up...
