Last Night, We Bowled For Truth!
That's right, everyone, a few of us did return to NRV Superbowl to try our hand at the pins once again. I, for one, surprised myself with almost maintaining the level of competitiveness I had during the intramural contests earlier this year. I choked like I normally do, however, and failed to break 200 for the first time. I ended up with a 154 the first game and a 130-something the second. Pretty much par-for-the-course for me, actually.
... I bought Wilco's A Ghost Is Born album on Tuesday when it was released, and I'm glad I did. If you like the band at all, buy this album!
... Add Dodgeball and The Terminal to the lists of movies I want to see sometime in the near future. I hadn't even seen a preview for Spielberg's new movie; I only heard about it through people who said they loved it. It seems the Spielberg/Hanks dynasty can add another notch to its hat. (Do you add notches to hats? I'm not sure, but I like the term anyway.) Dodgeball is definitely going to be one of those movies that supply my circle of friends with quotes for the next few months, so I have to get caught up on that. See Old School, Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie, Bad Boys, and Robin Hood: Men In Tights for other quote-birthing movies from my recent memory.
... In school news, it turns out that I may not be as scholarship-less as I'd feared last week. No, my department is simply taking its time in dishing them out to their students, including me. I'm not guaranteed one by any means, but at least I haven't been snubbed by them yet.
... I finally saw Jen & Stephen last night for the first time after the wedding. Married life of a week or two is agreeing with them. Good seeing you, guys! Their visit also sparked a wave of catching up with other old friends I haven't talked to in a while, which is always nice.
Tomorrow is Friday, it's officially sum-sum-summatime now, and the weather is looking good. Here's to summer!
