Life has been good and busy and slow and awful and icky and awesome over the last week. I have laughed, cried, and laughed some more, and walked out with a strong resolve to do whatever it is that needs to be done by any means necessary so I can just get all of it over with and stop worrying and start LIVING.
Monday I went to the Mariners game with Carrie, John, and Ginnie, as John had gotten free tickets from some mysterious source. Nothing seemed more appropriate on a day when all we could hear about was ‘America, America, America’ than to go watch our national pastime. Unfortuately, we lost to CANADA, which sucked pretty hard. This was made up for by unleashing my Shouty Monster, who resides not-so-deep inside me, and who sneaks out after a few beers or so. The horrifying things proceeding from my mouth were all punctuated by stabby motions with the hand holding the tiny american flag they gave to me at the door. Some, but not nearly all, of the things I shouted went as follows: “ABORTIONS FOR SOME! MINIATURE AMERICAN FLAGS FOR OTHERS!” “IF YOU’RE GOING TO WALK HIM, AT LEAST HIT HIM IN THE FACE!” (I was awfully proud to have started a chorus of nearby ‘In the face! In the face, motherfuckers!’) “SEND HIM BACK CRYING TO HIS POUTINE-EATING BROTHERS!” “IF YOU LOSE, THAT MEANS THE TERRORISTS WON!” “SHOW THOSE FLAPPY-HEADS WHO’S BOSS!”
I also called the ump a dicklicker, and started chanting ‘satan’ at some group of dillholes nearby who spent many minutes cheering for Jesus. Pft. Jesus doesn’t play for the Mariners. Last I heard, he got kicked off the team for running around with an unsavory group of people, including known whores, and for drinking water-wine in the dugout.
9 innings later, I was tired, my Shouty Monster was appeased, and we all went home, miniature American flags in tow.
I still need to write about the camping trip and the mini-road trip that Jez and I took–since the neighbor with the internet I’d been leeching has either moved or wised up and locked their network, I’ve been hard-pressed to update. So just so you know–I’m not dead, just mostly internetless!
I love the Mariners. There’s a special fun to be had rooting for a doomed team.
I think I’m going to save my crying for the Seahawks and the Packers this year. Inauspicious starts for both teams!

Piggybacking wifi access? I used to do the same thing. 🙂
I’m so sad that I can’t do that anymore. Something inside me rails against the thought of paying for Al Gore’s internet. The tubes should be free!
Al Gore’s internet? Don’t you mean Henry VanStatten’s? Sure, Al Gore invented it..but VanStatten owns it. Or at least will in 2012.

ABORTIONS FOR SOME! MINIATURE AMERICAN FLAGS FOR OTHERS
I need this on a shirt.
It’s probably already out there somewhere–or at least was at one point, when that gigantic boom of Simpsons merchandise hit the shelves. 😀

For the next time you travel
If you bring a laptop with you, have this showing on the screen: http://thecleverest.com/countdown.swf
It’ll teach those TSA fuckers to mess with Mellzah’s luggage 🙂
