Disgusted..

So to make matters worse, the Celtics lost the NBA championships. Regardless of what team I support, it was overall a great game. To be the only Celtics fan in a room filled with Laker fans was another added bonus. But as I was flipping through channels on the TV, I stopped on the abc 7 news channel. They were talking about how after the lakers had won, fans all over LA went berserk. They were so excited about the lakers winning, they decided to bash people's windows in and just create chaos everywhere they went. Then they went more in depth about a taxi driver, who was victimized by a group of fans. The poor man was stopped by the group and was forced out of his car. Then they decided to destroy the cab and then set it on fire. Then they just let the car burn and they walked away. Then the man was interviewed and he just seemed so sad and confused. Wondering how such an event, as the lakers winning, can lead to him losing his car and more importantly his job. The man kept talking about how that car was his life, and how all his important documents were left in there.

Now left with absolutely nothing, this poor man sits and wonders why him. Of all cars to be stopped it had to be his. I personally feel very sad for him, and on the other hand disgusted. Disgusted by the world we live in, not to be negative nancy or anything, but cmon. Really? was all that raucous necessary? To rob a man of his car, job and pretty much his life, just cause the Lakers won? I understand being excited about having your favorite team win a championship, but to set cars on fire and do all that is just uncalled for. So frustrated about that story, I wish that man nothing but the best in his future.

playing alone

Have you ever played catch by yourself? I highly doubt it, cause who does that. Well it seems like thats what I've been doing lately, throwing a ball and waiting for the other person to throw it back, so we can get the game started. That game for me never started, and I still sit and wait to have that ball thrown back towards my direction. It sucks to just sit and wait, all this anticipation is No Bueno. At least having the ball thrown back would help, but it seems as if they don't want to play with me.

They pretty much have the ball in their hands, and they continue to toy with me. Acting like they are going to throw it, then faking me out and leaving me with a false sense of hope. But what is one suppose to do? Sit and wait, believing that little sense of hope will pull through? Or do I just leave them and have them start a new game, with someone they are actually willing to play with? If they threw the ball back, and even if it didn't reach me, I would be willing to help them out. Assisting them in the process, so that the game of catch will eventually be an on going game, that never stops. Ya it may start slow and it may take a long time to get the ball flying back and forth, but it would be one game I would be willing to invest my time into.

Well one things for sure, playing alone sucks...
