Warning: Tedious Blog Ahead

First rugby game with the Valkyries today. We won, which was good, I only got to play B side though, which was not good, but apparently I was somewhat impressive on B side and made a favorable impression on my coach. So, mixed things happening there. After the game we had our social, hosted by the Amazons, and I got to sit in on quite a bit of team gossip. Having mostly male friends, I am not used to a lot of gossip, not that men don't do it but I do believe women are more famous for it. Wow. What an experience. I have never heard so many juicy comments in one sitting. I am pretty sure I have a piece of information on nearly everybody on the team now. I just have no idea what one would do with such information. I have been having a bit of trouble fitting into the team, but today I talked with this amazing girl, you have no idea just how amazing, and it was just so great to have someone listening to me, not trying to pry information out of me but not just sitting there and telling me everything is going to be ok. She was seriously the best thing to happen to me all week, then of course I find out that she spent eight years as a counselor. Well, I have been to counselors before and I have never seen anyone like this. This woman deserves the fucking noble peace prize. I want to bake her a giant cake. Too bad she isn't actually playing this year.

I called a friend of mine today that I have gotten out of touch with. She has moved back to the city and I have really neglected to connect with her for several reasons. I think the main one though, is that I am scared that she and I won't get along. We never really did see, we just had this high school facade of it to make it easier on both of us I think. We don't actually have anything in common, and I have nothing to say to her. For some reason though, I feel guilty living in the same city as her and doing nothing about it, especially because I have been pissing and moaning about having so few friends. Maybe a little bit of it is that I am just way pickier than I think.

Not much going on in the boy department. I went to rookie T shirt night last night at our captains house and barring the fact that it was awful and I felt so terrible when I came home, I had an excellent time chatting with their neighbor that lives below them. He was really cute and seemed genuinely interested in talking to me. I even hinted that I had nothing going on that night and he was like "oh me neither" and after the appropriate ten minute period of him standing in his doorway and letting the bugs in, I decided he wasn't going to ask me to do anything so I gracefully made my exit. I was fairly disappointed though because I definitely put myself out there, and I am pretty sure he wasn't rejecting me so much as not getting it. Hmmm. I don't know what part of me projects that I am not interested in going out on dates but apparently I have something. Maybe he just thought I was a lesbian.

Crazy music stuff happening right now. Rooney, a band I loved who put out a total of one cd something like seven years ago just came out with another album. The lead singer of wilco put something out with a band called The Loose Furs or something, there is a new Decemberists cd and a new Smashing Pumpkins album (but I heard it blows). There is one more that I can't think of right now but I will be sure to blog it later. Further on in the entertainment industry, I have decided that since we are not going to have cable this year and I have a complete inability to return rentals on time, I am going to do Netflicks. I have never done anything like this so it should be pretty interesting. I am slowly easing into the 21st century.

Well, this post was probably boring but I have an excuse. My journal is currently MIA after I hid it from a friend who is all too clever and nosy, and now I can't remember where I put it. It's been about 4 days now which is terrible timing because I have had some good ideas for songs and as you can see if you are reading this, there are things on here that BELONG IN MY JOURNAL. Oh well. Like I have said time and time again. This blog is for me, if its too fucking boring for you then stop reading it. I can't wait for the next 4 weeks to happen. Even though I am having a slightly shitty time of it. Today I could smell fall in the air, it was the perfect amount of cloudy and cool and windy and I just wanted to die happy in the woods with the smell of pine needles underneath me. Definitely considering going up to the north shore next weekend if I can afford it.
