A life without love is like a Yakuza movie without Ken Takakura

Hmm, I forgot to write LJ yesterday because I was writing my monster Mariners Fan Fest blog entry. Whee. In addition to that, I also played volleyball, and watched Gokusen, which is where the above quote came from. Oren also got me to watch the last quarter of that crazy-ass Colts-Steelers game from a few weeks ago, which I had read about but hadn't seen. Whee. Also did grocery shopping. I guess it was a productive day, though the volleyball went pretty poorly -- I was a little off my game and Bossy Guy was there and really into his "I'm going to tell you every single step you should be making" mode and I was too zonked to tell him off.

Today was a bit of a blur. I had work and I went to the gym, and that's really about it. I've been a little dazed. I picked up a 1GB flash memory stick from Best Buy and have been trying to figure out which stuff I really need to back up on it; I should probably also start looking for a new computer while I'm at it.

I played some Pop'n'Music, too. The URA version of 777 makes me happy.

It's funny how things keep inspiring me to really want to DO something, and yet, I keep ending up being somewhat stagnant. I dunno.

Boston Red Sucks

Maybe my Boston friends can explain this one to me: how the HELL do you get tickets to a Red Sox game on a weekend without either Ebay or getting a "standing room" or single "obstructed seat" ticket?

I had been thinking it'd be a fun idea to go to Boston for their series against the Phillies in June since I've never been to Fenway, but the series is ALREADY pretty much sold out. Jesus. It sounds like if I want to go to a game at Fenway and not pay a fortune, I'll have to go to one alone, on a weekend against a sucky team, which I guess is just as well, because showing up in a Phillies jersey by myself might get me killed anyway. But still.

(huh, would showing up in a Sox t-shirt with Damon 18 on the back get me killed now too? heh.)
