Or, "Oh Mildly Pleasant with Few Negative Experiences Da-a-ay"
Happy Day would mean Ryan has found someone, anyone, to be with for even one happy day. Mildly Pleasant with Few Negative Experiences Day means Ryan has taken steps toward a Happy Day.
I will speak in vague terms right now. Actually, on second thought, this blog is accessed throught my IM profile. Many people have the opportunity to access this blog. That relates directly to my Mildly...Day. Therefore, I am not going to say anything about it. If you want to know more, IM me.
Apparently, according to Shane, there is a Figment the Magic Dragon. Darned if I knew.
Kyle got me a birthday card last month that is the most perfect thing I've ever read. Listen to this paraphrased version: "Time to take the Old Guy Oath: I, Ryan, being of questionable mind and aging body, do solemnly declare myself an "Old Guy" and am hereby officially permitted to : mumble incoherently to myself...wear hats...constantly kvetch about my lower back...call all teenagers 'stupid little punks'...and fall asleep with absolutely no warning."
Isn't that incredibly descriptive of me? There were some disgusting parts about it too, like farting and scratching places, but I omitted them with my favorite punctuation, the elipse. Ironically, my favorite solar phenomenon is an eclipse. So similar in spelling.
Alright, it's not that ironic...How many solar phenomenons are there?
Alright, you caught me. I made up the part about my favorite solar phenomenon to able to discuss the irony. Leave me alone.
If any of you are Northwestern football fans, and you're not doing anything tomorrow at 7pm, tune in to 89.3 WNUR-FM Evanston-Chicago for a broadcast of the football game. I'm doing pre and post game, plus highlights. Senior Alex Freedman is play-by-play, Junior Ray Garcia is color, and Junior Guy Benson is sidelines. Senior Howard Tilman is also hosting pre and post games. Thanks for reading this paragraph that you don't give a squat about.
Cubs Update: Cubs won 5-3. Ryan Dempster converted yet another save; he's been great, 28 for 30 or something like that. Maddux tries desperately to get to 13 wins tomorrow.
Random Factoid: Greg Maddux has 17 consecutive seasons with 15 or more wins.

1:26 A.M., and All's Well
You should have read that in an annoying, drawn out, echoing voice, with a tinge of an english accent. If you are familiar with any farce movie, they do it that way. Also, as a point of reference, refer to Michael McGrath talking in "I Am Not Dead Yet" from Spamalot. He doesn't say that, but he does use the voice to which I am referring.
Did you like how I refrained from ending that sentence with a preposition. I find that the hardest thing to do grammatically. I usually type it correctly, but speaking it is a lost cause.
That was my first attempt at being random in this post. Unless you count the McGrath reference, though that related to my title, so it actually followed a train of thought. Of course, all my thoughts follow a train, hence I say I write in a train-of-thought manner. My train is Gordon. He was the grumpy, stodgy blue train. I can't remember his number. He was always mean to Thomas, but he'd be there in the end. Who was Thomas's friend? It was the green train, right? When they threw that third blue train into the show, I said enough is enough. At least I could tell the difference between Gordon and Thomas, but three was ridiculous. Look at the color spectrum some time on any Microsoft office product. So many colors to choose from, and they used bright blue three times.
That was quite random. I am content.
So I moved back to Northwestern yesterday. I am blogging because Joe has been keeping up to date. Not really though. It through that. Joe is blogging because his girlfriend his insisting. That's the same thing with me. SIMMER DOWN READERS! No, I do not have a girlfriend, nor will I ever. What I meant was that Joe's girlfriend told me to update, so I am.
Speaking of Ryan's future relationships (maybe that should a regular piece of my blog, like random factoids and Cub updates), I currently have prospects. One I am pursuing, one that might be pursuing me. It's probably all figments of my imagination.
Have you ever thought of what a figment would look like. For instance, if you were playing pictionary, how would you draw a figment? OR even worse, how would act out figment if you were playing charades. Suggestions welcome.
My suite here at NU is great...no freshman, but a 7:1 conservative ratio (80-2 the rest of the dorm, or something like that)...Our room this year is amazing. It's twice as big as last year; I don't know what to do with all the space. (there's another odd phrase. "do with the space." I can't even explain it, it makes no sense).
I'll tell you more details later...this entry is dragging, like Puff. You know, Puff, the Magic Dragging...maybe not.
Cubs Update: Lost 6-1 to the Cardinals...started their rally in the 9th...currently in discussion with Switzerland about relocating.
Random Factoid: Switzerland is the only country in Europe with a "z." Africa has so many "z"s, you'd think they could lend Europe one.
