Happy Man on the Moon Day! Thirty-five years ago, Neil Armstrong jumped down onto the surface of the moon. “We love da mooooooon….”
The guy who is teaching my Photoshop class is very amusing. This morning he came in singing the Black Eyed Peas song that was omnipresent on ESPN during the NBA playoffs, and is now acting out the difference between riding in a Mini Cooper and a Mercedes. “You buy the experience,” he says. He is very funny.
Lance Armstrong is going to take the yellow jersey today (as I watch Stage 15 online). I am so obsessed with the Tour de France, and so jealous that my sister is going to see the second time trial in Besancon. Katie, get me a souvenir! Better yet, just take some good pictures and that will make me as happy as a souvenir. The Tour de France riders are just amazing. They average a speed that I can only maintain on flat ground for about 5 minutes.
Debbie, Becca, Fred and I went to the rock gym last night; it had been about a month since I’d climbed. In the past few months, the rock gym has been stressing me out, so last night I decided to just climb fun routes…”fun” meaning either challenging (in a good way) or easy (in an ego-boosting way). I swear my shoes have shrunk, or that my feet are getting fatter, because my shoes felt tighter last night than usual. My poor toe. But it was a good night. My arms aren’t sore at the moment, but they probably will be soon.
AND the Braves are back in first place in the NL East. It’s just my luck that as I’m finally adjusting to the Astros being “my team,” the Braves (my “first team”) start playing great baseball. But ah well. The Braves are where they belong. Happy day!
And this cartoon about Bush and Kerry (to the tune of “This Land is Your Land”) is brought-tears-to-my-eyes hilarious. I love that they picked up on the fact that Bush can’t pronounce nuclear correctly. That is one of my biggest pet peeves ever.
I have had the “this land is your land” movie posted as draft on the blog for a week. The site I first saw it on was constantly busy so I didn’t ever end up posting it. It is quite funny, making fun of both candidates.
haha i saw that a couple days ago too, so funny. now we need to get dad to say nuclear right too
Very funny, just annoying that I get the song stuck in my head all the time now.
Oh, totally. I’ve been walking around humming “This Land is Your Land”…it’s maddening.
