Sporting Injuries
So, I have some sporting injuries. Or rather, injuries caused by lack of sport. I went to the weight room on Monday for like, the first time since February. And yeah, I lifted too much than I should have, so now my bench pressing muscles hurt, and the inside of my legs ache. So, that kind of sucks. Then tonight, I played catch, so my wrist and right arm feel like they're about to fall off. I feel like I should be soaking in a vat of Bengay. Man, I wish I kept playing baseball. That's why I have to get back into it, to atone for my idiotic decision to stop playing the sport I love. Holy crap, I love baseball. Especially the Minnesota Twins. What I don't love is being 4 and a half games out of first to the freaking White Sox and losing the to chump Cleveland. We've established the awesomeness of the Revenge of the Sith soundtrack, that awesomeness is gaining with every repeated listening. Two weeks from now, I'll be in the theater, in costume, watching the movie. Man, I can't wait. It's going to be so awesome. There was an article today on CNN about the screening they showed to a bunch of reporters. I guess one person responded that it was a "bloodbath" and deserved the PG-13 rating. You may ask why I'm excited about all this violence. It's because that is the way this story needs to be told. Anakin has to completely renounce his light side, and just become so evil. I can't even handle in the trailers, when they show close ups of Anakin's face as he fights Obi-Wan. He just looks so full of hate and rage. And one has to remember, this is his best friend, his mentor, practically his father. He loved Obi-Wan, and now he is hell bent on killing him. I just think that is so sad, and it shows the tragic story of Darth Vader. I love the way Hayden Christensen is acting, at least from the trailers. He really seems to be conveying a sense of conflict and anger. I have confidence in the acting in this film. Anyways, I'm excited to see Kingdom of Heaven this weekend. I did a project on military religious orders in the Crusades for medieval history, and I find the Crusades to be fascinating. Not that I like the idea of killing for Christ, I think it's stupid, but it is still an interesting time in history. And, I like epic films. In reality, epic films all just strive to be as totally awesome and cool as Star Wars. Lord of the Rings came close, but in my opinion, nothing can top the Skywalker saga. Funny Star Wars story. This girl, Bai Ling I think is her name, played some obscure senator in Episode III, and hyped up her role really big, going to all the conventions, and meeting fans in line over in Los Angeles. I mean, she was like, the 3rd senator from the left, if you dig that. So anyways, she's a pretty girl, and got to be the Playboy centerfold for the June issue, which is a Star Wars feature. Anyways, her sole scene got cut from the film. So funny. She's on the cover of the Star Wars Playboy, and she isn't even in the movie. She'll probably be on the deleted scenes on the DVD, but still. I hope my female high school friend comes and visits me on Friday, I really do. I want to talk to her. I really miss my friends from high school. So, I'm hoping. Anyways, I'm going to get to bed a titch earlier tonight. I hope everyone has a wonderful day, and as always, MTFBWY.
