i drove 3 hours to seattle today and made it just in time for our 7 o'clock volleyball game. sadly, we were not victorious today. let me draw a picture for you - in "The OC" terms. our team will be ryan from chino. the other team, let's call them evil luke the waterpolo player. our team wasn't exactly the underdog team, we were just way shorter [just like ryan from chino!], but we were nice and called the mistakes that we made, like being in the net, etc. the other team, not so much. [we 'fessed up just like ryan when he burned down the house] and there was a moment where one of the girls on the other team hit it twice [double hit] and we called them on it. then a wee bit later, a guy on our team blocks it, then hits it [totally legal]. so a guy on the other team makes a huge deal out of it, and in the end, he's wrong[just like how evil luke is so often wrong]. he said, "sorry, we don't know the rules like you guys." umm...right. it was a disappointing loss, because, they so weren't better than we were, just taller and not as forthright [just like luke]. at the end of the day, we lost, but at least we lost with integrity. but i wanted to kick somebody in the head [just like how ryan feels towards luke] ok, i'm done. can you tell i'm having oc-withdrawal?

good thing more shows are premiering this week, like one tree hill. woohoo! it is an entertaining show. it is not in the same league as gilmore girls/everwood or the oc, but it has it's moments. the popular brother on the show is horrible. i don't know if it's the writers that make him sound so unbelievably lame, or if he just stinks as an actor. his portrayal of a jerk-jock boy is a little over the top, but everybody else is cool. and now to watch my taped gilmore girls - yay!
