So this is my last post to Little Pink Stars using Blogger. I'm feeling pretty nostalgic right now. I'm a very sentimental person. Even though I know that there are better things to come, I still can't help but look back on the past and realize that it's never going to be the same.
Now let me say a few words about Little Pink Stars (Blogger version).
I remember when I set up my first blog. It was, in fact, the same one I am currently posting to. It's name was originally "Elastic Plastic", and I first got it to work at my grandparent's house. It was a simple blog, in a frame in my M*A*S*H layout. I loved M*A*S*H. I still do. But I really loved it then.
We had some good times. We had a lot of bad times. As recently as a month ago, I couldn't get blogger to work correctly. I probably couldn't set up another blog on Blogger if I tried. I am now using a blog program that I can understand (a little bit).
I will never forget you, Little Pink Stars (Blogger version). Although I may not post to you ever again, your archives will remind me of the good times we had together.
Love, Juli.

Blogger is really not working for me anymore. So yeah, I'm installing b2 right now. This could take a while. Sorry, guys.

In the past three days, I have thought of about twelve different websites/whatev I plan on making. I bet I never make any of them, because I am the laziest person alive. This is also a reason that all of my layouts suck.
WHY CAN'T I JUST SIT HERE AND DO WHATEVER I WANT? Is that too much to ask?
I know that I really should get off the computer, but who am I fooling? If I get offline, the only thing I'm going to do is read Sports Weekly until I eat dinner, and then I'm going to the library (finally!)

Boo. The guy from my future job just called, and I have to go see him tomorrow to sign some papers. BOO. BOOOOOO.
I like not having a job.

You know... I really feel inspired to create a JUST BASEBALL blog. You know, like, the opposite of this one...
Actually, I just need a place to blog about my Red Sox, a place where you will not read any of the following quotes:
- "OH MY GOD, SHEA IS SO HOOOOOOTTTTT!"
- "Dude, did you see Manny's hair?"
- "LOU, GET THAT CHEW OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!"
- "Don't quote me on this, but I think John Burkett's hair color changed..."
- "Man, Casey is the MAN!"
- "The Red Sox are losing to the Yankees, but DUUUUUDE, ANDY MY RIGHT HAND MAN-DY IS PITCHING!"
- "Pedro, stop whining!"
- "Did you see ______ on Extra Innings last night?"
- "Trot is really starting to scare me."
- "Wow, Derek Lowe is really tall!"
- "Tim Wakefield cuts hair in the clubhouse? AWESOME!"
- "Did you hear what the Rem Dog said last night? HE IS CRAZY!"
- "GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAL!"
And about a million other quotes that I know I've said at one time or another. I just really need a place to write where I won't act downright RETARDED. I think that would really help my writing, as now everything I write is so tongue-in-cheek it's impossible to take seriously.

Alright, I broke down and read the Jeremy Giambi article. It actually wasn't THAT bad. This was my favorite quote. It's totally clean, I just thought it was hilarious:
What's the worst thing you did as a teenager?
We used to jump our bikes off people's roofs and into pools. I'm really surprised my brother and I are still alive.

Ok... definitely clicked on this link looking for something else, but I think I like this a lot more than what I was searching for.
Ahhh, the images. And OH MY DAD, this is a great image, too:
The article featured a carefully posed photograph of the couple embracing, topless, and Benson's teammates later had some fun with it. Catcher Jason Kendall and left fielder Brian Giles both removed their shirts in a corner of the team's spring training clubhouse and embraced while Benson was discussing the article with reporters.
This is why I love baseball, guys.

Sooo... I'm back home. This does not please me very much. I got stuck in my driveway because it's a solid sheet of ice. I AM JULI, FOR GOD'S SAKE! HOW DARE ICE DO THAT TO ME? I can't wait for my mom to buy another car. So I will never be stuck at school for 7th and 8th periods, and I will never have to take the bus to school again. I won't have to drop off a car for my parents at work. I'll be able to go to the library whenever I want (don't even get me started on this). Life will be great when I have a car...
I guess that orientation for my new job is only twice a month, so I could possibly go like, another week or more without a job. I know I need the money for college and everything, but I have to say that I enjoy reading books and doing nothing a lot more than I like working.
Maybe today I could update my really really outdated links page. Or maybe I should just make an entirely new layout, including a new links page. Sounds good.
I totally bet that that never happens. I bet I never ever ever change this layout. EVER.

Dear Rock-Queen Kids (if any of you still read this, which I doubt you do, but still):
Tim Spooneybarger has the same opinion on Creed:
Overrated? Probably Creed. They're good but every hit they got is like the same exact song. I'm not a big Bruce Springsteen fan either. I like Born in the USA, but I'm not a big Springsteen fan.
By the way, that guy is really, REALLY friggin' stupid, but I love him anyway. I'm nice like that. Or maybe it's just because he's so hot. Hmmmm.

Jeff Weaver is such, such a liar. Who talks like that? Not Jeff Weaver. Not anybody. But maybe a robot.

Boo. It's Sunday, so vacation is over. We couldn't get a flight today, so we're actually not leaving until tomorrow and going back to school on Tuesday. So tomorrow we didn't have anything planned before our flight at 5:30 PM... but we do now.
I never thought this day would come, but my family is going to a Yankee game, and they aren't playing the Red Sox. CRAZY. They're playing the Blue Jays. I just want to see my guys (even though I know that Moose started today). And I want to see Josh Phelps. I have a fever, and the only cure is MORE JOSH PHELPS.
And then I have to go home! I can't believe that vacation is over! Now I have to go back to crappy old New Hampshire, with its 4 feet of snow and school. And then I have to work on getting that job. And if I already have the job, then I have to do it. Boo. I'm such a lazy whiner.
