Yes, we win again. That's two series in a row won, 6 of 8 games won, doing very well and enjoying having some victories to watch. Watching any sport in which you root for a given side is frustrating when they play like donkey nuts. When they play well, it's a wonderful past time.
It's nice having the house to myself. The folks, yes, sadly I live at home again, have been in Utah for a week and a half now, no doubt having a blast doing practically nothing. It leaves me with a kitchen to myself, a whole yard to care for and the freedom to host WEC marathons and balls games without hesitation. It's not like they wouldn't mind if I did that sort of thing when they are here, but it just isn't prudent to bring the riff raff I associate with into this house while my parents are here. That being said it's not like I have been throwing ragers. I've only had a couple visitors so far, which is still nice.
You should see/eat the breakfasts I have been making in the mornings. Today was Farmer John thick cut bacon, FJ sausage patties, eggos, three eggs over medium, hash browns and a big glass of milk. Did I mention how delicious Aunt Jemima maple syrup is on eggos and sausage? Fuggetabouit. That has been my standard breakfast. It's so odd how much better I eat when I am alone. I guess I feel less obligated to make food for everyone when I can just make it on my own time. I eat at different times than my folks and my dad will literally eat anything that is in the fridge. The other day he tried to get me to eat some ground beef from April! Gross.
Another thing I enjoy is caring for the tortoises how I want to. I may steal the responsibility from mom because I feel I have more loving touch to caring for them. I feed them more often, by hand to make sure they all eat, and water them FAR more often. I don't think I ever see my parents watering the tortoises. Just because they are desert tortoises, doesn't mean they don't need water. Plus I think feeding them bananas gives them Diarrhea, have to do some research on that one.
More Jiu Jitsu tonight. I did some good working out and stretching on my off days so I am looking forward to rolling tonight. I am also excited to give my teacher and his family the delicious lasagna I made them. Their mother/wife has just had surgery so I thought since she would be out of commission, and since Todd doesn't strike me as a cook I would make them a big lasagna. It is one of my better ones, I would love to eat it myself but I am proud to be giving it to them. I am sure they will enjoy it. I even double checked with Ben to make sure no one had any issues with beef or cheese, but with my experience one of them will be deathly allergic to tomatoes...I sure hope that's not the case. haha
Independence day tomorrow. As always I worry about the Irony of another "terrorist" attack and the Presidential issuance of martial law, but I doubt it will happen. The more I watch conspiracy theorists and get to understand the mentality of the front runners of these theories the more I feel like I am associating myself with lunatics. Aliens? Satanists? The occult? Inbreeding sociopaths? Well the last part is true but when these assholes start using 9/11 as evidence for the coming of revelations I just have to bury my head in my hands then punch myself in the face six or seven times. I need to just stick to doing my own research, forming my own thoughts and not buying into so much of the stuff people put on the internet. Spin and propaganda works two ways these days, and both sides are batshit crazy.
Well, I am going to end here. Gotta get cleaned up from washing my car so I can visit with grandma and grandpa before class. It's been nice visiting with them a couple days a week, considering how little I have seen them in recent years. It's also nice to see my bud Harley once a week. He needs good role models so I do my best to be one.
Anywho...
Peace out,
G
