Eightyeighth


The limit.

I don't like that feeling that you're about to achieve a personal best, whether it be in sports, academics, um... contests, or video games or records of any other kind, but you know you can't make it. It's right there and maybe if you hadn't slept the wrong way last night or the night before, dang it you'd be right up there!

But then, you reach your limit. Sigh. Either time runs out, your breath runs out, or like... they run out of pies but you're two away from your best. That's just the kick in the pants you thought you were going to avoid and then finally you'd get to claim things you couldn't before. But nope, they didn't make those two extra pies, or um... you're not Superman and you can't turn back the clock... actually, do you think Superman has any personal bests? I guess he does, but it would be hard for him to really... get past them? I don't know, can you become more than super? I suppose there are words out there that would qualify as higher up the ladder than super, but he couldn't just change his name to Awesomeman, or like... Reallysuperman. And we all know Stupendous Man is taken.

Anyway, it's not like you can really go through all Freecell games anyway. Without losing that is.

Sigh.

You know, I'm not sure the sky is the limit. I know there's space and everything like that, but without leaving the planet... I kinda think that once you leave land, you run into limitations. Even before you leave land. So it should really be "The sky's a possibility" or like, "The sky's not out of the question".

You heard me. Man, everything sucks when you're gone.

WOTD time:

Dandy - (n) 1. a man unduly attentive to personal appearance 2. something excellent in its class

Also, quite a fun word to say. P.s. The picture's title is Redneck Fire Alarm.

You know what else is fun to say? This haiku:

Melodramatic
Rolling down a hill not long
Three leaf clover patch.
