Sock Monster!
Alright, so there’s a sock monster living in my basement. There must be! After getting home from our double-header (we won both games 15-0 by the way) I put my uniform in a bathtub to pre-soak with detergent on the dirty spots. My whole uniform was in there, including both socks. Then after it had soaked for a good long while, I wrung out the excess water from my uniform, including both socks, and placed the uniform on a towel that also needed to be washed, so that I could carry them into the basement for machine washing. All of the items were put into the washer and washed. Then, I transferred the items to the dryer, with the exclusion of my underarmor which is supposed to be hung dry. I did not check to see if both socks were there, as they had both been put into the washer. After the drying cycle was complete I took everything out of the dryer and put it into my laundry basket. I folded my laundry. I found only one sock! I rechecked everything I folded - no sock. I rechecked the washer - no sock. I rechecked the dryer - no sock. I checked behind and around the washer and dryer - no sock. I checked in the bathtub and all along the path to get from the bathtub to the washer and dryer - no sock. This could only mean one thing… well… two things. 1. THERE’S A SOCK MONSTER IN MY BASEMENT! 2. I better find my socks from last year before my games on Monday!

First MI Game
Hey y’all! My softball team has our first home game for 2008. We play against Kellogg Community College (I think). Hopefully, we’ll come away from this double header with 2 wins, and if we get a head start early, I might even get some playing time ^_^ Prayers are always nice too. I would ask that you pray for our success as well as our continued health, as we’ll be playing softball nearly every day for the next few weeks. I’ll still try to get on here a bunch, but if softball prevents it, I’ll still be thinking about and praying for you! And now to leave you with some entertainment…
my type of men right there

We came, we played, we kicked some major butt! And by ‘we’ of course I mean my amazing teammates ^_^ They scored almost 10 homeruns in the first game, and scored some more homeruns in the second game. This was against the team that I had the bad dream about - the one that beat us. Luckily such was not the case today, and I showed up in my uniform ready to play ![]()

Positive Post Tuesday- A.W.
Sometimes it’s the little things that really make a person great. Today, I’m saluting my Chemistry prof. She lectures us on the important stuff, she gives us chapter study guides, she puts study resources where we can access them, and she guides us through the labs if we need help. And most recently, she’s coming into the school several hours early, just so she can drop my exam off in the testing center as I won’t be able to be in class tomorrow due to a make-up softball game. When I say several hours early I mean it. Our class doesn’t start till 6. She doesn’t need to be in till 6. She’s dropping my test off by 10 a.m.! Most of my friends wouldn’t take the time out of their day to help me succeed like this, but she will. That’s an incredible sacrafice for someone who will have my attendance for less than 2 more months. While, in the long run, 8 hours may not have such a huge impact on someone’s life, it’s a pretty big sacrafice to make at any given moment. That is why A.W. gets the spotlight for my first positive post tuesday.

Entropy!
Question: How do you make a glass cassarole pan explode?
Answer: First, you accidentally turn the burner on high that is under the emptied cassarole dish rather than the burner that’s under the teapot. After about 3 minutes, you realize that you turned the wrong burner on. Finally, you remove the dish from the hot burner and place it on a cool stove. About 2 seconds after you set the dish down, it exploads.
Question: How do you know that God loves you?
Answer: The only injury you sustain from being less than 2 feet away from said explosion is a barely visible cut on your right index finger. (If my pictures would actually load, you could see why this is awesome)
