a goofy movie & conspiracy theories...
for those of you who have not seen it, disney's 'A Goofy Movie' is truly a classic and worth checking out. it's been a tradition for me and sarah to watch it every year during the holidays, although we've slacked off as of late since she stole the video and took it to school. at least we were able to track down the soundtrack after years of searching. anyway check it out...it's hilarious and there are even some fish in it.
as many of you know, i have very few qualms about embarrassing myself these days. i just don't care...half my jokes are about me and my roommates being fish nerds anyway, and this sort of thing has been elevated to a status where ANYTHING that is said in our presence about fish gets us pigeon-holed back into that role. don't know if that last sentence made sense, but then again i'm half asleep right now.
anyway, embarrassing myself:
i decided this morning that it would be a good idea to burn a new copy of the dane cook CD (easily one of the funniest comedians on the planet, if you haven't heard his stuff, check that out too) since i had recently passed on my original copies to some friends. for the record this album and his second one are the CD's that damon and i quote incessantly, since we listened to them about 6 times on our miami road trip and probably 3 times on the atlanta trip. james was recently 'educated' on that last trip, and double D and gwen should be following shortly.
anyway, im cracking up all the way to the parking structure; im thinking this is a great idea for the morning drive since i'm usually really annoyed with the driving/traffic/bikers/penguins by the time i get to the structure...this time around i couldn't stop laughing. so i don't want the experience to stop so i select the albums on the iPod and pick up where the car left off and start my walk to class. of course the funniest parts come up and although i made a valiant effort to keep my normally semi-pseudo-serious composure, i broke out into this ridiculous goofy grin for most of the way to class. i had to sit in the computer lab and read/print off some stuff and could barely keep my mouth shut there. then on the walk back to the parking structure i figured what the heck and just started laughing randomly (or at least that's how it would appear to strangers). i couldnt help it, and yes, i looked/sounded like a nutcase...or at least those people i think are crazy since they walk around (student or otherwise) just mumbling to themselves. ah well, at least I was smiling and having a good time. so if you see me walking down the street with a goofy grin on my face, you will know what's up...however, if i don't have earphones on, you may want to stop and check on me since that will be a good indication that i probably forgot to take my meds.
and finally, just to clear up any confusion/suspicion about the upcoming euchre tournament (which has kind of snowballed into a mini-get together[i refuse to call it a party in order to fool my fishes into NOT dying - see curse entries] since the addition of taboo and my chronic inability to host anything 'small-scale' anymore) -
you know what? i forgot what i was going to say, so i'm just going to post the comments from the evite thus far (there's a funny story behind the chronology of this, which andrea's investigative skills -and to a lesser extent brenda's- were able to reveal, but i'll save that for another entry. her comment about 'taboo' below is NOT true)!

Hello All-
Since Solomon is the most competitive person I know, he of course wants to see who is the master champion of Euchre. And to make things interesting, and to swing the vote toward him, he is planning on getting everyone intoxicated with the famous fish tank water before the events begin. So warm up your euchre skills and come with or without a partner for a fun euchre tournament. If you aren't a fan of tank water BYOB and snacks.
that's all for now, i'm sure this evening should be eventfully insane <:><
