Dudamel

I wan to see Gustavo Dudamel conduct very very very badly. This means I may have to make a trup to LA sooner or later.

Unbelievable

Abysmal night of dodgeball. We only won three games. This matches our worst week. This however was one of the most important weeks of dodgeball. A week before the playoffs, we needed a solid performance to secure a high seed. This did not happen. Sadly, we were down two players this week and were forced to pick up a guy who helps run the show but does not play. He did alright. But even with him, we were forced to play with three guys and three girls. There was also some poor moral this week which certainly did not help. Some team members did not have a winning attitude going into the night. Ah well, next week should prove to be a great experience. That is that.
Lost tonight blew my mind. Those people at Grass Skirt Productions kill me every week. I love Lost. Love it! I tend to rate how good episodes are by how well they rip everything I thought I knew out of my head, blow it up, grind it into a paste, add some tobasco sauce, eat it, poop it out, freeze it, and shove it back in to my head. And this one did all of that very well. I'm going to have to watch this again in order to wrap my head around some things. What the hell did he want with the Black Rock's Ledger? Why him? To help Penny's research and search for Desmond? What the heck? I won't be able to sleep tonight due to my mind racing.
I am so amped up now. I've realized that I get a huge high from exercise and competition. It has been such a huge part of my life, my entire life. I had not gone very long with out it and that is a bit of a problem. After dodgeball these last few weeks, I have been so wired. Tonight my hand was shaking after dodgeball, I was unable to dial a telephone number. Good grief. I've lost my train of thought. Dodgeball is crazy, Lost is crazier. I love them both. And here I will leave you with a list of team names I came up with tonight seeing how we are deciding on a new team name for the upcoming spring season. Also good names for Trivia night.

Scouting

Dodgeball is very interesting. Good mix of people. A couple D-Bag teams, one of which we beat consistantly. The other we have yet to beat. They've beaten us four times. Tonight, with some good scouting, however we got them down to there last two while we had three. A guy and a girl against a girl and two guys. Easy money, you would think. I went for a catch bobbled a little and a teammate caught it. In this league that means that only I am out. Bummer. And this is a team I really do not like. We ended up losing to them. But now we know how to play them. They hold the balls until you are out. (That is illegal, it's stated in the rules.) I noticed what they were doing and told my team to hold our balls until the refs yell at us. We did that and after we were yelled at the other team was forced to not play that way. We still lost but we did dominate them until the end. I've started to get very amped for these games. I love dodgeball.
I forgot to run the dishwasher, time to watch lost. Out
