You're Too Intense For Me. And so, there I was, on the cusp of sealing the deal... when out of nowhere "We Need To Talk" was uttered for the first time in probably four years. What a buzzkill. You know how this turned out. You know, I gave some thought to coming up with another No Escape-type story for this weekend's trip; really bounced it around. Not worth it. My muse to come up with something that incoherent and poetic would have required way too many drugs and drinks. I prefer only my eggs scrambled, not my mind. Plus I would really have to kid myself that something epic took place, when to be honest, Epic and Akron go together like oil and water. Anyways, Great trip. First experience playing the Wii. I've officially joined the 21st century. Finally. And I have spare condoms. To use, ummm... (crickets chirping in my bedroom)
Today's List:
1. The Collapse of Something Special - Somehow, some girl that I met five some years ago became pretty attached to me. Well, I think her boyfriend got the idea, and last night things got out of hand. You know you've jumped the shark when this qualifies as "relationship drama." I wasn't even on the phone for any of that. Nope. Some 18 year old potty-mouth was on the hook for me.
2. And You Will Know Me By the Trail of Dollar Bills - I officially spent more money than I had this weekend. Big shock.
3. Go Bills!!! - The Buffalo Bills blew up right before my very eyes yesterday. I should have watched #4...
4. Go Browns!!! - I was in CLEVELAND for this game... and didn't take on the tickets. Why?! This was the football game of the century! 51-45(?!) Unbelievable.
5. I guess the Wolverines Didn't Eat Her - I come home from Cleveland sunday afternoon to find the cat MISSING. Not sure how the cat escaped, but it was nowhere to be found. At about 7 AM this morning, I get a nuzzle on my face. It's the cat!!! I walk out into the kitchen, and sure enough (I left this open on purpose) the cat burrowed through the hole between the air conditioner and the wall. Pretty amazing story. Welcome back, Oreo!

The List (9.14.07)
Top Story:
O Hi! O. I'm fixing to jet off to Cleveland for the weekend. It's going to be the wildest, hottest road trip since 2002. The last time something this fun was going down was when I sat through a monsoon to view The Who in Philadelphia, PA some 5+ years ago. Yes, I said The Who. And I'm 24. Yes, I am aware that kids my age only listen to hip-hop and some garbled form of Electronic music or neo-new-wave. Whatever.
Today's List:
1. Bill Bellicheck is a disgusting cheat, this time with acoustic guitar.
2. If you have the time, money, and a higher tolerance for psychodelic shrooms than I do, this is where you should go next weekend.
3. The Buffalo Sabres are back on October 5, so guess who's going to that home opener?
4. Since this is arguably the first real post of my blog career... I will encourage you to help me fill the list! If you have any funny quotes, ridiculous personal stories, web junk, youtube madness, or viewpoints on the world that you would like me to post here, I encourage you to e-mail all suggestions right here.
5. Check out my myspace page. No Emo bathroom mirror pictures, no big tittied friend lists. What's that you say? It's set to private. My goodness... you'll have to add me as a friend.
6. Enjoy the Sports Blog.

Welcome to my world kids. It's only a matter of time before you lose your minds by osmosis.
The best quote will be featured in "Quote of the Day," and the most ridiculous item (story, video, or whathaveyou) will be featured in "Jackass of the Day." Anyone who remembers the AIM profile from long ago will remember these pieces and will be no doubt relieved at their return.
More posts will come, I am sure... some will be short stories, essays, columns, but this is my bread and butter. The list. The rundown. The short, quick-hitting madness that is real life. Since you can't script it, anyways.
