How to Install LOVE

Tech Support: Hello … how can I help you?

Customer: Well, after much consideration, I’ve decided to install
Love. Can you guide me through the process?

Tech Support: Yes. I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?

Customer: Well, I’m not very technical, but I think I’m ready. What do I do first?

Tech Support: The first step is to open your Heart. Have you
located your Heart?

Customer: Yes, but there are several other programs running now.
Is it okay to install Love while they are running?

Tech Support: What programs are running ?

Customer: Let’s see, I have Past Hurt, Low Self-Esteem, Grudge
and Resentment running right now.

Tech Support: No problem, Love will gradually erase Past Hurt
from your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent
memory but it will no longer disrupt other programs. Love will
eventually override Low Self-Esteem with a module of its own called High
Self-Esteem. However, you have to completely turn off Grudge and
Resentment. Those programs prevent Love from being properly installed.
Can you turn those off ?

Customer: I don’t know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?

Tech Support: With pleasure. Go to your start menu and invoke
Forgiveness. Do this as many times as necessary until Grudge and
Resentment have been completely erased.

Customer: Okay, done! Love has started installing itself. Is that
normal?

Tech Support: Yes, but remember that you have only the base
program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get
the upgrades.

Customer: Oops! I have an error message already. It says, “Error
- Program not run on external components.” What should I do?

Tech Support: Don’t worry. It means that the Love program is set
up to run on Internal Hearts, but has not yet been run on your Heart. In
non-technical terms, it simply means you have to Love yourself before
you can Love others.

Customer: So, what should I do?

Tech Support: Pull down Self-Acceptance; then click on the
following files: Forgive-Self; Realize Your Worth; and Acknowledge your
Limitations.

Customer: Okay, done.

Tech Support: Now, copy them to the “My Heart” directory. The
system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching faulty
programming. Also, you need to delete Verbose Self-Criticism from all
directories and empty your Recycle Bin to make sure it is completely
gone and never comes back.

Customer: Got it. Hey! My heart is filling up with new files.
Smile is playing on my monitor and Peace and Contentment are copying
themselves all over My Heart. Is this normal?

Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes awhile, but
eventually everything gets it at the proper time. So Love is installed
and running. One more thing before we hang up. Love is Freeware. Be sure
to give it and its various modules to everyone you meet. They will in
turn share it with others and return some cool modules back to you.

Customer: Thank you, God.

The Killer Squirrel

While walking with my friend to the Science building, I swear I almost was attacked/tackled by a squirrel. It took the defensive evasive stance and we both tried to dodge each other, needless to say I ran...and yes it's a squirrel I understand that haha, but you never know! Later walking back to my friend's dorm, that squirrel was out for vengence...or something. It even had a weapon. Put a Pin in It #1.

Starting this Thing Up...Again

Yesterday I was thinking, "I should stick a Pin in it!" One of my favorite sayings to say when something memorable happens or momentous. Yes, I did hear it from the movie "Bolt." So no, not so original on my part. If there are some strangers to this sucker, and my Pinned up moments just aren't exactly what you were thinking...so be it. I will guarantee there may be some quite Random, and maybe Not so Funny (to you) things posted up on here, but hey, just so I can remember some stuff down the line...I figured why not? So after this, I think I will post my first "Pin."

Quick (maybe) Update

San Antonio just beat Los Angeles in the Western Conference Finals of the WNBA! Holy cow was I on the edge of my seat. It was just that intense. San Antonio did a good job at slowing down LA's bigs...but LA doesn't just have Candace Parker, Lisa Leslie, and DeLisha Milton-Jones...the other players produced as well. The game seriously came down to probably the last..four...five posessions. A stop, an overthrow, two big shots...I don't even remember how it went. All I know is that Becky Hammon came out with 35 points. She was on a mission, and I believe with this game...Mission Accomplished. I also really liked the play of Erin Buescher, she played outstanding posting up on Candace Parker. Maybe it's just cause she's a former Monarch and well...how can you NOT like Erin Buescher? If you haven't seen Sophia Young's buzzer beating/game winning shot from game 2...I suggest you do...it's a good one.

On the East, New York couldn't contain Deanna Nolan and well...she basically decided to take control and the Shock took over in the 4th Quarter. Detroit was able to put the series to a game 3.

In other news, things are going just peachy with me. I'm looking for new places to eat and I'd ask anyone who's from my area to let me know, but really...there's not much out here. I'm actually ahead on my assignment for next week (amazingly) and well I can't complain any. I'll leave this one pretty short and simple...if you want more little snippets, I'd go to my xanga...cause yes lamely, I do post on both...why not one? I have no idea. Oh well.

Oh I Need Sports in my Life...

Ok, so I really don't, but it's always nice to look forward to a little Sports action.

Did anyone happen to catch SNL with Michael Phelps? Of course you did!! Who didn't?? I, of course, recorded it like a dork haha. The first few skits were pretty funny, but towards the end it was lacking a bit. A lot of people complained about Phelps' lack of acting skills, but c'mon people...he's a swimmer! Of course he won't be the BEST at acting haha. I really thought they could've done some more funny stuff with the "Charles Barkley Skit" I mean...Bela Karolyi is a fairly easy target for Parodies. I thought they could have done so much more...or do a little bit of the "UNDERAGED CHINESE GYMNASTS!!!" hahah. Ok that's horrible, but I still stand by my guess that one of them had to have been 8! Of course...I have no proof haha. Anyways, James Franco's on this weekend's SNL, so I'm excited about that! He's absolutely the definition of "Adorable."

Last night was UFC Fight Night! Usually Fight Night's don't have the big namers like Chuck Liddell, Anderson Silva, or Randy Couture, but I still watch them. Last night's fights didn't disappoint. I thought the Danzig/Guida fight was pretty good, and Nate Diaz bugs me...I think it's his "Mike Tyson" like lisp. But I give it to the guy...he was able to escape a lot of Josh Neer's submission tries by doing his little twirl thing. Overall, can't complain....but I do wish Herman beat what's his face...that cocky dude...why can't I remember his name!! haha.

Tonight's the start of the WNBA Playoffs...whoo hoo!!! Matchups are Sacramento vs. San Antonio, Los Angeles vs. Seattle, Detroit vs. Indiana, and Connecticut vs. New York. Hopefully I won't be seeing some Yellow/Purple, and Blue/Red in the finals haha...meaning Detroit and LA...granted they are great teams, I'm just tired of Detroit in the finals, and I'm tired of all the Candace Parker hype. I know...I sound like a hater, but hey! I'm not completely a hater...I vote for Candace when she's on the US team haha. I guess it's a little bit of the UConn Huskies fan in me!

Hmm...nothing else really going on in my world of sports...not like you folks care. I don't really feel like sharing much of anything else...I think I'll be saving that for a later time...and you all say..."Whoop dee doo!!!"

Oooo Oprah and the UFC

Who saw Oprah's season premiere??? I just finished watching it, and it was nice to see the Olympians all together. Yes, I'm lame and I still miss the Olympics cause for huge sports fans like me...it's is absolutely one of the best times of the year!! I would say it's a National Holiday in my book. Is that a little lame?? Maybe. But I can't help it, I love me my Olympics. The only thing that kind of sucked about the show was the interviews weren't long (understandable) and she only introduced the Women's Soccer Team and Women's Basketball Team. I was hoping she'd give a little interview with them. She only spoke to Jennie Finch for like 30 seconds hahah and that's it. It was fairly lame. Oh well, still I loved it because Michael Phelps was there. Although his shoes...just weren't working. I should say "loafers." Now he is the only guy that I think can pull off the Speedo...so you would think that a guy would could pull off a Speedo...could pull of Loafers right?? haha. Still...he's the cutest guy ever :) Anyways, it was still a nice little show. I wished it could've been longer, and ya...I wish I was there. But hey...there are always other ways to make your dreams come true (mine being to meet like half of the athletes there!!)

*Jennie Finch, Jessica Mendoza, and the USWNT Blog blogged about the Oprah Show...I'd check it out...it gives a little extra insight :)

Moving on...did anyone catch UFC 88??? It wasn't the best of fights...poor Chuck got knocked out by Rashad Evans...and I have to give it to him, cause he timed/aimed that punch perfectly. Chuck was down for what seemed to be forever. I kept thinking (jokingly), "He killed the Ice Man!" Chuck was definitely put to sleep, but thank goodness he was able to get up and walk. Cause my oh my...what a wait! The other fights weren't too great. I felt Matt Hammil (sp?) didn't want to hurt Rich Franklin...even though he did get a good gash under Rich's eyebrow. I won't explain too much detail, cause I could barely look at that thing! Dan Henderson's fight was alright...and well..that was about it. I probably won't get UFC 89...but I'm definitely looking forward to the Couture/Lesnar fight and the Silva/Cote fight...although I think Patrick will get BEAT! haha.

So until next time folks that's all I have for you! I'm off to study to become Michael Phelps' Athletic Trainer (hey I can dream can't I?)

Did you Vote for Jessica Mendoza as Sportswoman of the Year?

Unless you follow USA Softball, most of you probably didn't even know to vote, or that there was a vote going on for someone to be picked as Sportswoman of the Year. But if you actually did, I hope you voted for Jessica. Granted this is based off of sports performance, and ya ya we all know that great new rookie in the WNBA Candace Parker, or the soccer great that is known simply as Marta, but if you haven't heard about who Jessica Mendoza is...you're definitely missing out. Yes, she's a softball player...yes...she's a GREAT softball player...and you know what...she's probably the MOST Passionate person I know (not personally haha)!! I've never seen someone who exudes such a passion for a single sport. If you have ever watched a video about her talking about Softball, talking about the girls who play it...I mean WOW. You can hear the love she has for this sport the second the first word comes out of her mouth. Her face simply lights up talking about it. She's a great player and she doesn't even know it. Nor, do I think, will she accept it. It's hard to try to explain someone's passion without having anyone hear it, see it, or feel it for themselves...but let me tell you...I surely hope you voted for her because she is definitely a TRUE All-Around Athlete. I feel she is more deserving of being Sportswoman of the Year than the next. So I hope you voted...cause I sure did! I can't say it's not too late to vote because the polls closed yesterday. Shucks. I will keep this short because if I were to try to explain to all of you exactly why Jessica deserves this...it'll take up a lot of time haha. I won't waste any of yours if you feel I have thus wasted your time right now! But anyhoots, fingers crossed that she won it!
