These things are completely insane in different ways:
- Staying up all night and well into the next morning to watch the men’s tennis final at the Australian Open. (in an epic way)
- Two men playing tennis for nearly six solid hours…and both are still able to stand when it’s over. (in a superhero way)
- Um, even without sleep, I was still totally able to cheer on my Mavs with gusto. I inherited my mom’s night owl gene big time. (in an awesome way)
- Shaun White. (in a really good way)
- Sinus attacks. (in a really bad way)
- Wind that sounds like it’s coming through the windows. (in a freaky way)
- How my mom can totally read my mind. (in a groovy-Sookie Stackhouse way)
- The man who wants happily ever after, but doesn’t want to put the effort into finding it and expects it to just fall in his lap. (in a sad way)
- The woman who believes sex will lure a husband away from his wife. No joke. (in a completely pathetic way)
- Mother Nature. (in a scary way)
Unexpected Insanity: While watching the marathon tennis showdown, I began noticing things that I never noticed during the average length match. Thus, I had some unusual observations, due in large part to sleep deprivation.
- Nadal’s butt-hugger shorts gave him loads of wedgies.
- The ball chasers had to maintain a specific crouching position which might have been unfortunate if they had developed gas.
- The towel holders had to have felt ewy. After nearly six hours of wiping sweat, spit, and possibly nose drips, imagine how germy and stinky those towels must have been…and they had to touch them. Maybe they changed towels, but they looked the same. Either way…ick.
Haha, yeah I've thought about those towel holders too. Ick.
ReplyDeleteI've never watched a tennis final that long (and I didn't watch that one either.) How did they not die?
NO. IDEA. And how did they not need oxygen or something? lol It was really incredible.
DeleteBTW--very glad to see you back. You were about ready to get an "Are you okay" e-mail tonight. lol
Haha, thanks, and you can still send one if you want :)
DeleteWhen I first bought my house, it had all original windows. As in windows from 1945. Every night I'd hear banging outside. Convinced it was rabid animals outside my windows, I slept in fear every night that they would climb through my window and eat me as I slept. (Yes, even at 29 I had an over active imagination)
ReplyDeleteTurns out, it was the wind hitting the windows and rattling them in their sills.
That would have scared the living daylights outta me, too. :/ Oh, don't worry about having an overactive imagination--I still do. :/
DeleteI love how you notice some guys wedgies. lol And why would a player wear anything that would give him wedgies??
ReplyDeleteLOL--I noticed the butt-hugger shorts right away. hehe But, as the match progressed, I saw him yanking them out before every serve. I wondered the same thing--why wear something that's wedgie friendly? Couldn't have been comfortable. :/
DeleteI wouldn't last six minutes at tennis. I can't stand a wedgie so I don't know how anyone could play a sport with wedgies. Sometimes sex lures a husband away from his wife (been there, he left), but he didn't marry the first one. And when you cheat with a man, you'd better expect he'll cheat on you.

Have NO clue how he managed to play that long fighting wedgies. Wow.
DeleteOh, it all comes back to karma, for sure. My mom always said the same.
mmmm...butt-hugger shorts...lol! (so as long as I'm not the one wearing them!)
ReplyDeleteI lived in an old farmhouse as a kid; the place had to have been built around 1890-1900. Still had the original windows. We could always tell when a thunderstorm was approaching (even if we couldn't hear the thunder) by the way the glass would shake in the frames. And my mom swears the place was haunted too...
LOL--they looked really uncomfortable, but it sure gave the viewer an eye full. lol
DeleteIt's such a scary sound! I wouldn't doubt a place with that much history could be home to some spirits.
You've made some very interesting observations regarding insanity! Some may even boarder on insane! Hee hee!
ReplyDeleteLOL! :)
DeleteOh man! Now I have this image of man in shorts with wedgies!
ReplyDeleteOops. Sorry about that. lol
DeleteSix hours?! That's incredibly impressive.
ReplyDeleteI know--it was unreal watching them play, knowing how much they were hurting, yet they still pushed themselves to the limit. It really was epic.
