It’s been a long time since a bowl win. Glad that streak of winless bowl games is over. Spartans win 33-30 in 3OT.
I just discovered Real Estate last week, and I wish I had found them earlier. I love it when music makes you feel good and their tunes do that for me. I thought that this was a California band, but they’re actually from New Jersey. They just seemed to have a cool, mellow, California vibe to them. “Days” has some great cuts, including a couple of instrumentals. As of today Amazon has this mp3 album for $3.99. That’s all that I paid and it’s totally worth it.
O Holy Night is one of my favorite Christmas carols. I really like the song. Hearing Eric Cartman sing it is great too. He doesn’t know or remember all of the lyrics, but it sounds alright. Even if the original lyrics aren’t about Christmas trees, pie, and presents, it’s still okay.
Some days being an INFJ is quite difficult. I can’t count the number of times where I feel like I don’t fit in. It doesn’t matter if I’ve known people for years or if I hardly know anyone, I generally feel out of place. I feel this way at church, the ballpark, and various other social places. It’s ever so strong at work. It’s hard.
I’m still trying to figure out what I’m supposed to be when I grow up. I’m horrible at this. Do I try and train for a new career, only to be bored of it after so long? Do I try to make hobbies a potential career, only to lose that hobby and have it be job-like? Nothing ever stands out. It’s hard to pursue something when nothing stands out. I just want quiet and simple. Fitting in affects this as well. If I’m not comfortable, I’m generally not interested. If I pursue something I want it to fit me. At this point I feel as if I’m on this mediocrity carousel that never stops.
Today it just seemed to hit harder than usual…
The return of Minty the Candy Cane
Here’s another one of my favorite Christmas songs. This one is from the influential 80’s punk rock band the Descendents. “Christmas vacation you took a vacation from me”.

Comedian Jim Gaffigan talks about hoilday tradtions. It’s a perfect time for this video.
One of my favorite (and annoying) Christmas songs comes from Conan O’Brien. Last year Conan revealed “Minty the Candy Cane, who briefly fell on the ground” as one of his new characters. This holiday song is also his theme song. It is ridiculously catchy and I guarantee that it will be stuck in your head.
Here’s my photo of the Heisman Trophy. I went to the College Football Hall Of Fame in the summer and made sure to get a pic. Robert Griffin III the quarterback of Baylor won it yesterday. Every time that I saw him I kept on thinking about how McLovin’ on the Dan Patrick Show always calls him “Robert Griffith Jr the Third”.
