At Last... It's Over!

Yeah, fuck that idea.  I think I'll just flip-the-fuck-out and write 25k instead.

National Novel Writing Month, the worldwide program that I thought would make my November more exciting has finally relinquished its hold on millions of lives and disappeared into a dark hole that it will crawl back out of next year to reign again.  If you can't tell how this last month went, then let me spell it out for you;  I'm fucking exhausted and disappointed.  My high hopes coming into the month were ripped down, laughed at, then stomped on.  My goal, you ask?  50,000 words in 30 days.  Yeah no.  Not going to happen.  Try 25,000, 30,000 if you're lucky. 

Well, now that this madness has ended, I'm looking forward to more time with many things;  a)  My beautiful girlfriend, b)  Volleyball, and c)  Continuing to write this dumb piece of shit because if I came this far, I'm sure as hell not giving up now.  Call me crazy, but all I've got to say is this... DGAF homie! 

Well, this is CA, signing off.  Stay tuned.... and be good humans.

Two Months of Love

Well, it's been two months since I met the most wonderful person in my life, and I'm enjoying every minute of it.  Judith, these are for you baby.  <3

Oooo, Look! A Butterfly!

To start off, I want to apologize.  I was entirely distracted from the computer for a good 10 days or so, and for that, I am sorry.  I will, however, include in this post, more content than should be reasonable.  So here we go.

11/24/12- Turkey Day!!!  (better known as Thanksgiving)
Tis the season to eat.  And that's exactly what I, along with millions nationwide, did.  We stuffed our faces then sat around drinking soda and watching football.  Then we eat the leftovers the next day (and the day after that, and the day after that, and so on.).  Second-favorite holiday next to Valentine's Day.

Now that Thanksgiving is over and done with, Americans look forward now to Christmas, anouther big day for the stomach.  But before that, the monster known as Black Friday attacks the nation's wallets and takes away the sanity of every woman in the United States.  I saw people camping outside of Best Buy on Tuesday!  WTF, people?  What's wrong with paying the same price every other day of the year like normal human beings?  Holy hell, it's like everyone's lost their marbles!  *Sigh*  I don't get it.

Volleyball begins in the spring, but we're rebels here in O-town, so we decided to start in the winter!  Oh, snap!  We have open gyms on Sundays, which is a lot like practice, but with more fucking around and more fun and a lot more laughing and dancing.  It's so much fun!  "It's awesome!  No, it's beyond awesome!  It's... beawesome!"

And it all ends with school.  More specifically, a Monday.  Fuck school, and fuck Mondays.

Well, this is CA, signing off.  Stay tuned.... and be good humans.

So Close...

On Saturday my high school, Righetti, made the CIF Southern Section Finals for water polo against Los Osos.  We were excited, a joking and laughing bunch of 18 and 17 year-old kids that were confident in their ability.  We knew our opponent well and we had beaten them before, so our confidence was high.  

We reached the pool with high expectations and spirits.  The game started off great.  A 7-4 lead at half made us realize we were only sixteen minutes away from our goal.

That's when everything seemed to fall apart.  Los Osos brought it within one at the third quarter mark, leaving our seniors devastated and pissed all at once.  

But it wasn't enough.

The Righetti water polo team fell 12 to 9.  The bus ride home was somber and depressing.  Everyone felt the sadness in the air, and no matter what movie the coaches put on, no one would watch them.  

It was a bitter day.

Day Four: The Animal in You.

Ok, come on!  Everybody likes little furry bundles of joy!  During the A2B2, we're just reminding those of you who forgot how awesome these guys can be.  So we've got the two cutest little guys i could find on Google...  Feel free to loudly exclaim "Awwwww!  He's so little!"

Well, this is CA signing off.  Stay tuned.... and be good humans.
