Bored...

When you are at home and there is no one to talk to you, it is boring. You are waiting for someone to talk to you and they never do you wonder what is wrong. Sometimes you just do not feel like talking to anyone or leaving the house. You just want to be left alone in your room with junk food to console you. That sentence with the actions mentioned is not a good thing.

The only thing that might have cheered me up was baseball. That did not even cheer me up. Maybe because I missed some commentary or something with Duane Kuiper and Mike Kurkow and it just did not seem right to watch. I still have to watch the Tuesday game that I taped.

I guess I am just bummed that I have not found a job even though I look everyday. The weather is definitely taking its toll on me. If I do 10 minutes of exercise then I will be happy. Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blonde said that too. Killing time until something exciting happens.

Horoscope: The contest isn't about who falls. It's about who gets back up the fastest.

Long walk...

Today was interesting. I woke up but really did not want to get out of bed because I knew I would have a difficult day ahead. I woke up this morning and did not want to get out of bed. I really had to force myself out. I woke up before the actual time I had to be up and still wanted to sleep.

I woke up, changed, and was ready to go mail the books that people purchased and some food too. Little did I know I would end up out of breath and find myself extremely out of shape. Walking up a hill and huffing and puffing is not a good thing. Maybe it was because I had a box strap to my back and it weighed a ton or felt like it.

I ate a little bit of food and then left to head to the movies. It was so strange how I had good timing for the bus. I mean I had it down perfect for all the buses. A little wait for the 28 but the 38 was brilliant. Watched The Terminal and it was pretty good except the ending was strange. I felt the movie lacked something. The next movie I see better be worth my time.

Well caught the bus back and while the 28 stopped at Irving the bus driver was pulling out and might have hit a motorcyclist. He told everyone to stay on the bus. He was going to take a while so I got off the bus and walked home. I did beat the bus so that is something. It took as long as me walking to my house for the bus to get fixed or whatever they did.

So I walked a lot after being on my bum a lot. Not bad considering it takes book orders to get me out of the house. I was trying to figure out why Noah Lowry was pitching and not Jerome Williams. I found out online and thanks to the great sports announcers. I guess the saying you cannot win them all applies to tonight's game.

Phone calls and door bells...

I heard phone and I heard doorbells. I refused to get up out of bed to answer either. The phone I might have if it was in my room to yell at them. If it was a textbook then I could go under the gate but it was a package so it could not. I really needed more sleep even though I did wake up a few times to go back to sleep.

I did eventually get up and was tired. I never get enough sleep. I should actually sleep early but I just cannot. Bad habits are hard to get rid of since this is me all the time whenever I have breaks or time off. Another not so productive day but maybe tomorrow will be. I will ship out books and make some money.

Tomorrow I hope there will be something interesting that happens. It has just been one of those weekends where nothing happens. You are just board out of your mind. If anyone wants to go, clubbing anytime soon please let me know. I really want to go and have an itch to go.

Horoscope: Normally your sympathetic with both sides of an issue. Today, be objective.

Candlestick to get new name...

San Francisco's Candlestick Park Could Get Name Change
June 26 (AP) ? Looking to raise revenue for the cash-strapped city, San Francisco officials may once again allow a corporate sponsor to name fog-shrouded Candlestick Park.

Five companies are interested in naming rights to the football stadium: low-cost airline Virgin USA, technology consulting firm Organic Inc., Monster Cable Products Inc. and banking giant Wells Fargo & Co., according to Saturday's San Francisco Chronicle.

But could the '49ers hold their heads high while passing the pigskin in the Virgin Vault? Might a venue that replaced its Astroturf with grass in 1979 become Organic Field?

No one knows whether a new name for the 'Stick would stick. Few natives have wavered from the original moniker, even after 3Com Corp. attached its name to the stadium from 1995 to 2001.

The park - on a rocky, windy outpost next to the San Francisco Bay, famed for its chilly summers when the fog envelops the peninsula - was completed in 1961 as a stadium for San Francisco's professional baseball and football teams.

San Francisco's Board of Supervisors must sign off on any naming rights deal, which Mayor Gavin Newsom believes could generate at least $3 million. It's unclear whether city officials would condone a Monster's Ballpark or Wells Well.

Newsom's predecessor, Willie Brown, tried twice to strike a new deal after the 3Com agreement expired, but supervisors refused to sell the naming rights.

Tourism has remained weak since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, and local unemployment has yet to recover from the 2000 dot-com crash. Last month, a financial rating agency downgraded San Francisco's $1.7 billion debt, and an analyst said the city's reserve fund has dwindled from $45 million in 2003 to an estimated $6 million in 2004.

Supervisor Tony Hall, who voted against a corporate name during the Brown administration, said the financial crisis could persuade him to vote differently this time.

"The budget situation is quite different now," he told the Chronicle. "We really need the money."

Why not sell it to some high bidder who would actually take care of the place? What do I know. Some of the names are funny. Monster's Ballpark.

You know you're a klutz when...

You open a drawer and do not close it. You also forget that it is open and then ram your hip into it.

You know your bed frame is there and yet you still ram your knee into it. You also know that this is not the worse that happened.

You crawl under a table and believe you can make it but instead hit your head on the table.

You also ram your toes into someone else's toes.

With all of this happening in the past 48 hours, you would think this streak would end.

The horoscope is dead wrong. I have no job so there is no reason for a raise.

Horoscope: The power structure is switching around. Play it cool. Ask for a raise another day.

A trip to the post office...

As I was walking to the post office and about to cross the street on Irving and 19th a car almost hit my friend. I had something pulled and could not walk fast but when I was crossing the lady almost started to back up. A lady in a Lexus almost hit me. how scary is that?

I went to Irving to mail books. I also bought some thank you cards. We also just hung and talked at KFC. It was nice. Strange thing was two guys who had a cell phone and the charger and was talking in the restaurant. My brush with death is scary. If my friend was running he would have gotten hit.

I just spend the night checking my mp3s and watching a great baseball game.

Beating myself up...

I am really kicking myself today. If that was not punishment enough I only got about five hours of sleep. I deserve that. I could not sleep after I lost an auction due to poor planning and bad bidding. No excuse is good enough or will be accepted. I am such a loser. I am such an idiot. Even my sentences do not make sense. I have crappy luck.

Horoscope: Gather the relevant facts and make an informed decision. Others will respect that.

We're # 1 ! ! ! ! ! ! !

I went out to get out of the house though I could not walk a lot or fast because of something pulled. I thought I could fix it, but it is not better. Have to take it easy for the next couple of days or the next week. As my friend and I were crossing on Irving this Lexus tries to run a red light and almost hit my friend. That was scary. If I had been walking my normal speed, it might have been me. Then she tried to back up while I was behind her. This is just too close to home. I had some tapioca and it was ok. Not the best and that reminded me that I should really start a page of where I have had tapioca.

Reading the Dodger news cheers me up. The reason is that the Giants are number one in the National League West. The Dodgers thought they could come to San Francisco and beat the Giants. They were sadly mistaken.

The best part of the game has to be the triple by Durham. Then when he was up and Weaver tagged him out it was Weavers fault. Durham was doing what he had to do. A guy going at full speed and the pitcher just stands there. The victory was sweet and we did beat L.A. No Milton Bradley and Shaun Green was out too. How sweet this victory this was.

The Giants are now one and a half games ahead of the Dodgers.

Horoscope: Take, take, take. Everyone wants a piece of you. Which is flattering, but tiring.
