Superhero Stamps, a Miracle, and My Crazy Idea


So first off, I don't know when these stamps (above image) came out, all I know is this, I freakin' love 'em! Got a letter from a friend a little while ago, she used these stamps on the envelope, and I was blown away, coolest stamps ever! Now, I don't quite know what my love of these stamps says about me (maybe that I am nerderific?)... Anyways, I never was a huge fan of action hero comics, but there's just something so damn American about these things, the whole pop culture thingy, I dunno, they're just flat out cool.

A Football Miracle!
As for the miracle? This involves the Arizona Cardinals... They won!! They won a game, didn't blow a huge lead for once! Ahhh, I love Sundays during the NFL season, something so nice about having football on all day long.

Idea: Building a Web Site For My Art
The crazy idea isn't so crazy actually. Possibly far-fetched in terms of my success... I mentioned a while back that I'd like to create a website for my art, well, I do already have a domain. I do have a friend who's willing to set up a site for me, but he's busy and I don't want to hassle him with constantly updating the site, so I think I should learn how to do it myself, hell I should just try and build it myself.

I can't work on my art very often, even little cartoony stuff, but doing stuff on the computer hasn't been too taxing. So I think I'm going to try and build my own site, I'm going to get some books on building websites from the library, and just go from there. The only web experience I have is with this blog, Lord knows if I had never gotten sick I wouldn't know the first thing about computers. So although I'm a novice, I'm kind of excited, I mean, I love projects, I love challenges, so this could be really cool, and I'll probably end up learning a lot! That is, if everything goes according to plan and I can figure out the first steps! I think the current circumstances in my life are perfect for me to give this a shot now, I have a feeling that whenever I'm better health-wise I'll be less inclined to sit around blowing tons of time trying to learn code and web design.

Um, I can't help myself? More football.

At the risk of glutting my blog with football videos, I will just post one more, but it's a good one! A Barry Sanders' highlight reel. It's weird, the kids that put these things together tack on the worst music. This Sanders' video has a techno track, which is probably the most palatable of all the things I've heard so far.

How to feel better? Why, a Reggie Bush Highlight reel of course!

There aren't too many things to do when your heart hurts. Cross out the alcohol, drugs, random violent movies, and other debauchery. No, there is one thing that helps. Watching a crazy good athlete do what he does best. Most people who might stumble upon this video have no knowledge of football. That's ok. I think these grainy clips showcase a certain kind of poetry. Hope this guy does well in the NFL.
