Thanks to all those who wished me a happy birthday Tuesday, it was greatly appreciated and made for a fantastic day. Spectacular weather combined with the kindness of others makes for the best of birthdays. Turning 20 wasn't so painful after all!
Tuesday nights for the obsessed sports fan are lonely ones. ESPN ran the riveting Madden show chronicling a bunch of overweight trash talking teenagers trapped in young adult bodies when it could have showed some NBA preseason games or at least just rerun PTI over and over again. ANYTHING but that Madden show. It hurts to watch. Well, almost as bad as the And1 mixtape tour show. THAT was bad. "Oh baby!"
The ALCS and NLCS are set. I'm siding with Tampa in the AL, and Philly in the NL. Why? I hate Manny. He's a lout who doesn't hustle and pouts when life sucks. Wait, how can life suck when you're making 20 mill a year? I do dig Joe Torre though, thought he got a bum rap in NY. I want to see the Rays win because A. I'm sick of Boston. B. Tampa's the underdog. C'mon. C. I really am just sick of Boston. Sorry Boston, I love KG, I even love Tom Brady (Hail to the Victors!), but man, your act got old. New blood!
I fly out for home Wednesday, to enjoy the splendors of birthday celebration with family and friends still in West Palm. The beach is a plus too.
Tuesday Observations
1. 20 years really isn't that long of a time to be alive. I'm probably not the first kid to have learned this upon turning 20 though.
2. The best gift is the gift of kindness. Material items pale in comparison.
3. If you just believe that everything happens for a reason, life begins to make a whole lot more sense, and the anxiety and stress of daily life is taken away.
4. It's not the things in life that mean anything, it's the people you share your life with that mean everything.
