Slow
Since I finished my thesis, I've been writing less and less. I guess it kind of makes sense because I don't have that need to produce a lot of material, but it's kind of frustrating as well.
Now that it's done, I have to make myself write because I just don't have the deadline hanging over me anymore.
Some thoughts:
1) You know you have to get up off your ass when you turn on the TV to a rerun of Iron Chef (that you've seen before), and actually look forward to watching it.
2) On Baseball Tonight, the show on ESPN, they show all day's home runs in a segment they call "Touch Em All." This of course refers to touching all the bases after hitting a home run. But am I the only one who thinks there is a bad Michael Jackson joke in there somewhere?
3) I haven't been in a movie theatre for . . . .well . . . I can't remember the last movie I saw in a theatre. Eternal Sunshine? That was a long time ago.
4) Sportscenter similies/metaphors are getting silly. I thought "as cool as the other side of the pillow" was rather inventive. But "all over it like a fat kid on cake?" That just doesn't do it for me.
5) One of the few things I will miss about college: Being serenaded on a Saturday night by a choir of drunken guys belting out Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" at the top of their lungs. Truly, a definitive moment of the college experience.
