New Jack Johnson CD
Yesterday I was killing time getting some pictures developed so I swung over to the Music Store (forget the name of the one in circle mall)
Anyways I noticed on the shelf a cd called "a few live songs EP" by Jack Johnson-G.love (g-love not glove) and Donovan Frankenreiter. I quickly wiped the tear from my eye as I ran over and grabbed the last copy before the person beside me (ok it looked like no one had touched the shelf but whatever) I bought the 7 song cd for 10 dollars and took a long short drive to listen to it. Yeah for them for this cd! They use an accordian (I think it is) in some of the songs, simply strange and loveable! GET IT! 9.5/10

Kid and woman at batting cage
I spend to much money at the batting cages. I started to go a little less often when I saw a 13 year old kid and then a women stepping into the 80 mph hour cage and just hitting like it was nothing. It was pretty cool, but kind of hurt my self esteem...alot!

creepy baseball watcher
Right across from my house is Kilburn Park which is home to the Hilltops Practice field and 4 little league baseball diamonds that are occupied every single night. Last night I went over to watch a came, I was bored and had nothing to do. I got there and sat down and all the parents and stuff were all just looking at me. Everything went silent and I could sort of here whispering behind me...since I am not on tv I am not thinking they were saying "look, that's thomas miller, he's so dreamy" they were probably saying things more like "i think that guy is a pedaphile, we should call the cops" I decided to add to the mysteriousness by leaving half way through the game. Acting as though I had "got my fix" ahahaha, suckerS!

baseball update
my broken shin

We played our first baseball game in awhile tonight. I actually hit the ball tonight, I struck out twice (one caught looking), 1 single and one walk, 1 RBI and 1 freaking hard foul ball right off my shin. This is how it was in my head.
"ok..set up..just like the cages, breath...GOOD PITCH...SWING...I HIT IT...Oh it went foul...oh what the heck is that insane pain in my shin...oh man....that really hurt...I think I am going to cry...no...they will bench me if I cry...act tough...oh gosh...my leg hurts so much...quick wipe that tear...breath breath breath..." Just a second mr umpire...that really stung..."oh good, i get some more time...I am never going to swing at a ball again! I wish I had a wheelchair right now...ok...let's just get back in there...ok ready...shrug it off...here comes the next pitch...oh that's going way outside...OH CRAP! THAT CURVED! Please don't call a strike..."
STRIKE 3 "Oh man..I am so useless...man my leg hurts"

There..that was a peak into my mind during my third at bat. Notice no swearing..that's cause I work in a church!

Moving Update
I am almost moved, I just need to get couch and atble and aquarium...truck truck truck truck truck truck! ANYONE?!

Ehaha
Yesterday I transferred my fish to the house into a smaller aquarium...to transfer them I just filled up ice cream buckets full of water and put the fish in. nd the adventure began.
Here is an interview with one of the fish involved in the transfer.

Thomas : Thanks for being here today Stripey...
Stripey : Your welcome.

Thomas : I know it must be tough to think back on the recent events so thsi means alot
Stripey : Your welcome AGAIN!

Thomas : So tell us what happened
Stripey : Well I was just swimming around this new circular thing and there was a big liquaquake.

Thomas : Ahh what?
Stripey : A liquaquake, you know...like where the water starts shaking...anyways...a big quake and all of a sudden I found myself outside on the land.

Thomas : Was this your first time OOW (out of water)
Stripey : Yes...it was quite nerve racking, the air was quickly taken from lungs and I began to drowned in the oxygen. It was atleast 2-3 minutes before the hand of God saved me from under the magazine and put me back into the bucket.

Thomas : Under a magazine
Stripey : Yes I somehow ended up under a magazine on the ground

Thomas : Well...that is quite a story
Stripey : That's not all...just when were about to make it to the promise land...our motor vehicle starts to spit and sputter...luckily there was a fuel bunk nearby, or we may have died in our own filth.

Thomas : Thank you very much Stripey, any last words
Stripey : I just want to say a should to snakey and red tail sharkey...your the bomb, and to the giant salmon! WATCH YOUR TAILS !@#!%!

Thomas : I am sorry folks. Our censors were not on that one. I apologize to the families who heard that. Thank you again Stripey.

Finally


I have been living without a trampoline for a couple of years now. Last weekend I got mine from home and set it up two nights ago. Last night...it all began...kids came out of the wood work...10 in total in my back yard. Everywhere from 2-15 years old. Today I woke up around 9...I heard the trampoline being used...ahah, wierd...an hour later, i heard water running. I look in the back yard and the kids have set up the sprinkler to the trampoline...by now I am thinking "ok...this is getting abit much..." so I talked to them, made sure they asked, talked to the mom, made sure she wouldn't sue me, and now...it's 10:30 at night...and the kids are still on the trampoline...seriously...there has probably been 20 kids through the yard today and tha trampoline has been in use since 9 this morning...that's...13.5 hours. They even offered to buy it off me today. I may not have a choice if I don't get a chance to jump on it. So crazy! ANyways, from a ministry stand point it's rad cause they are all Jr high age...but from a privacy stand point...it's not..private...anyawys. I am hoping it's just a novelty and it will wear off in a week or two. Here's hopin it dies down abit.

I have3 to go ice my knee and shin, peas out...comment if you feel like...it makes me feel cool.
