  1. I hate the fact that the International House of Pancakes did not sell gingerbread pancakes this year. I tried to make my own (using pancake mix from Amazon) but all that I ended up with was burnt pieces of scrambled pancakes. Perhaps I should invest in a pancake iron or waffle iron someday.


  2. Over the course of the past few months I have watched Charlotte's Web (the live action version), E.T. The Extra Terrestrial (2002 version), The Muppet Movie, Freaky Friday, and Capricorn One, each of which was borrowed (for free) from the public library, and each of which I would give a seven out of ten.


  3. I strongly hate the fact that for as long as I am alive, it will never be humanly possible to sit down and watch a football game live. I have been trying unsuccessfully to watch the Arsenal/West Ham United game for what seems like an eternity and all that I ever get is a choppy stream that takes an eternity to load and then it dies on me every five seconds. I spend a lot more time staring at my computer screen and contending with a stream that is more uncooperative than a small child who flips out on me and makes a massive scene in the middle of the grocery store than I spend being able to sit back and enjoy the game. If I ever get to be able to sit down and watch a football game, then it is going to be a wonderful thing. It is easier for a pig to sprout wings and fly than for the internet to provide its users with a steady stream of a football game.

    I am now watching a Youtube video of a recent English League game. At least this is better than nothing.
