well. that was anticlimactic.

I was all set to play in my first softball game on sirrogue and Dan's team. Nervous, jittery, but excited. We were up first. Three singles, bases loaded. Then Scott, our fourth batter, came up.

And he hit a line drive straight into the third baseman's forehead.

By some stroke of luck, two medics happened to be watching the game. One ran to him while the other ran to their car for their kit. They got him bandaged up so he could be taken to the hospital for stitches. The other team decided to forfeit, which I totally understand, but ugh. Bad night.

And we just discovered that TiVo decided not to record Gilmore Girls for no reason that makes any kind of sense. DO NOT SPOIL ME; I am not in a cheerful mood right now.

ETA: Okay, I've now watched VM and downloaded GG and am in a *far* better mood.

VM reaction: OMG CLARENCE WEIDMAN WHOOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

The rest of the episode? Ask me later. For now, all I have is YAY CLARENCE OMG OMG!!! (I have now watched him kill Aaron four times and the awesomeness has not lessened in the slightest.)

As for Gilmore Girls, I haven't read anyone else's reactions, but I'm pretty sure mine's the opposite of general sentiment. Because I am strange.

Grrr. I need to read more carefully... No spoilers. Not, 'wanting spoilers'. Ugh. Sorry.

On a random note, I'm sorry. I WAS winning a bid for 6 Wicked Tickets, and I was going to sell the extra 4 at face-value to my friends (you got top pick for the Veronica Mars DVD loan), but I was outbid by $10 at the last minute. :-(

However, I bought two tickets at a ridiculous price. If I manage to get some good priced tickets, I'll let you know!

Gilmore Girls officially ran long by a minute last night. Which means if you have an older TiVo, and VM was higher up in your season pass, GG wouldn't record. Personally, I blame the network for playing the same stupid games ABC and NBC do...but at least next season VM and GG will be on the same network, so this won't happen again.

Newer TiVos will clip the end of the lower-priority show. It was probably amusing to hear ML and I cry out in anguish when GG cut off right after the last establishing shot in Christopher's apartment.

You prevented yourself from having to play with your mind! Don't deny it!

Where do you download Gilmore girls? Because our recorder missed the last minute (GRRRRR), and I'd like to see the end.

networks are evil with their 'let's drag the show out two more minutes and f*ck with all the VCRs and Tivos.'

as for the thirdbaseman.. he's out! (calvin and hobbes reference)
