1. I think I can't wait to see what creative ways the Mariners will think of this year to con their fans into thinking they will be competitive this year, only to stomp on the hopes of their diminishing fans once again. Sadly it somehow doesn't seem like it's been 10 years in a row now.
2. I think I need to do some posts about sports.
3. I think it's sad how much more I accomplish in a day after cancelling my cable. My family has eaten together every night, I go to sleep at a reasonable time, and my "addiction to sports" as Sandra calls it is decreasing. I wish I would have done that a few years ago. How many cable TV shows are actually worth watching?
4. I think one of these days I need to make a bucket list. I remember a teacher in high school having everyone make a list of 100 things to do in my life. I bet my list would be a lot different now, but I think I will make one anyways....but smaller.
5. I think I am going to hate going to the gym in the mornings. I hate mornings. Especially early ones.
6. I think I liked the Hunger Games for one main reason, it was different. Recent movies have trended toward remaking 80's movies, making sequels nobody wants to watch and copying the basic plot of other movies. Maybe it has always been this way, but it sucks. I hate most movies I watch, but I appreciate creativity. The Hunger Games didn't remind me of something I've already seen which I liked. (I've heard it is a lot like a Japanese movie called Battle Royale, but I haven't seen that so I don't care).
7. I think I want one of those Green River sodas right now. Those were good...even though they remind me of Gary Ridgway.
8. I think I am becoming less and less interested in music. Maybe it's because I'm getting older but it's harder to find music that interests me lately. Or maybe
music just got bad.
9. I think it is funny that people have no problem dishing out money to try and win Mega Millions (1.5 billion spent for a chance at the 640 million prize), but if gas goes up 10 cents everyone panics. Maybe that money should have been spent actually doing something about high gas prices instead of giving it to state governments. The governments like to make you think that the money goes to a good cause, most of the time it being schools (Illinois reportedly received 31.5 million for schools)....that money may be going to the schools but I doubt it is an increase in money for schools. I would imagine that is just 31.5 million of the states budget that will now be spent elsewhere. Maybe this huge jackpot was just a way to help the states fix their budgets, trick people into giving it to you.....just a thought.
10. I think it sucks that movie stores keep closing down. I like renting older movies that were made when I was too young to care about them, or I have forgotten enough of the movie that it is interesting to watch again, or I just never watched for some unknown reason. I guess I'll just have to get Netflix again.
