almost missed it

the game, that is... or to be more precise, the game that wasn't... see, moments before clicking publish for the last entry i fell asleep and woke about twenty minutes later realizing there was no time to change or shower or anything cuz i slept the twenty minutes i might have changed and showered and anything so i had to rush out the door to get to the field (and then i hear from the manager that he'll be there ten minutes before the game to make the lineup, but the good news was that the first game was going fifteen minutes long (at least) so, whatever)... and then, the other team (the team we were scheduled to play) did not show... so we win by forfeit... i didn't have to stay awake fighting fatigue and sleep... didn't have to drive to the field (at 8 mpg, every 8 miles costs $3.60+)... and i could have been happily asleep and not eating absotively delicious meatball pepperoni pizza with multiple extra cheeses on garlic bread crust, omg, and maybe lost a pound instead of gained a few cuz i'll be asleep in a little while...

but then, you'd know all this if you lived here or if you cared to take the time to share life as i know it (and vice versa, i'd know yours) and we'd be friends, true friends, and wouldn't that be nice?... heck, we wouldn't even have to fall in love (if you are laughing too, you may belong here... step right up and say hello to the blog family... introduce yourself to me, even :)

ah, if the world only knew the mirror they see when they look at me is precisely as the talmud said, we see things not so much as they are, but as we are... and as dan fogelberg said, someday they all will understand... wisdom comes in many forms from many writers of a few wise words... the bliss remains, even after the glitter fades :)

hope you understand too :)
