I am the weakening breeze against my back...
Of sports and sports and sports
It was a sports week for me this past week. On Wed, I went to the Dodger/Padres game with the Lapazes and soon-to-be Diches - it was blanket night, and the Doyers won! Since then, with the exception of last night's loss...surprisingly to the Padres, our Doyers still have a 1/2 game lead in the NL West. Here's to the playoffs!
This past Sunday, it was opening day for the NFL. And the home opener for the Chargers - to which I have season tickets(I split w/ rooster, so half season tix). I got really smashed during the tailgaiting (I was already out late the night before and drank, so it probably wasn't a great decision to drink so much)...I don't even remember all the pictures I took from the pre-game ceremonies up until I woke up again in the 2nd quarter. I need to chillax on the drinking during those games...I've developed a rap for sleeping in the 1st quarter! It was a crazy game, I had hella fun, ran into some old familiar faces(as evidenced in the pictures), and that last second touchdown pass to lose the game really stung - but hey, that's why the season is 16 games long!
And now we get to today...which is our championship game in my Tuesday Titans league. We are currently undefeated heading into this game, and I am wanting w/ every fiber of my being to finish undefeated...the perfect season. I was chatting w/ Drich today about how we've both played for teams that have won one, and even zero games for the entire season...and how excited I am to be at the top. To me, it really feels that much more fulfilling when you've experienced what it's like to sit at the very very bottom - almost hopeless at one point.
...so yes, I'm quite the sports fanatic.
In a weird mood today...not sure what it is exactly. Might be the fact that the allergies are acting up a bit, that i'm feelin a little bleh. But I feel very ansy about the game tonight. I'm in a tug-of-war between these two I think. And at the same time, I have that "sitting duck" feeling. I don't know exactly how to describe it...but I feel like I'm just sitting here, waiting, and not really waiting for something to do, cuz sitting ducks are actually just waiting for something to happen...to them, and usually that thing they're waiting for, is to be shot. Krikey! I hope that's not what I'm sitting for. But yeah, that's what's goin through my mind right now.
