Today's the Day

September 28th, 2006

Still waiting on that little infant child to escape the womb.  Today is the due date, and those are never wrong.  Never ever.  OK, so I'm still waiting.  I thought a blog would get my mind off the nervous anticipation. 

A while back I did a blog entitled "Underrated".  Things I thought don't get their due recognition for being as good as they are.  Well, here now is another category. 

WORTH THE HYPE- Things that are All That, and do live up to their billing.

- Candy Corn- No wonder they sell so much of that stuff at Halloween.  It's amazing.

- I-PODS- I have an old one that holds a charge for about 20 minutes, but those 20 minutes are pure bliss.

- Crosswalks- I love when cars have to wait for me.

-Ghosts- Still to this day, paranormal activity has neither been proven nor disspelled.  What a fun mystery.

-Deal or No Deal- I thought the novelty would have worn off by now.  It's totally captivating.  Still!  And you can turn it on at any point, and quickly figure out what's going on.

-The New York Yankees- Again, the team to beat.

-Breathing.  A vital element to our existence.

-Sean Penn- Never has he been anything less than brilliant.

-Elmo- I never thought I'd get sucked into the hysteria, but the little red guy is dazzling.  His creator and puppeteer Kevin Clash is a true genius of our generation.

OK, that distracted me for a good 10 minutes.  Back to being obsessed over baby watch.
