Spiderman, red hands, and plastic cheese

Since my class got cancelled today, I decided to use the time to write a new post. Again, procrastination wins. :)
This week has been an interesting one to say the least. And that's especially strange considering it's only Wednesday.
On Saturday I went to a lacrosse game with some friends. It was superhero theme night, so half the stadium was decked out in some form of super apparel. This would have been all well and good if it hadn't been for the appearance of Spider Man. Now, I'm as big a fan of Spider Man as anyone (who wouldn't be a fan of Tobey Maguire in tights,) but this guy was what can only be described as disturbing. The costume was a bit too tight, and emphasized some areas a bit too much (if you catch my drift). To add to it, he would continually be doing lunges and pressing his package up against the glass surrounding the field. We watched in terror the entire night, as he slowly made his way around the stadium towards us. Ugh, the memories give me the shudders...
Ashley and I have invented a new game. We went through a series of attempts to scare the hell out of each other, but have moved on to a hand slapping game. The goal is to smack the back of each others' hands as often as possible. It's become very competitive, with the smacks becoming more and more violent. It's developing into a strategically demanding game. More on this as it develops.
I have also become addicted to purevolume, mostly for its free downloads of indie bands. I'm really getting into more unknown stuff. It's addicting. Current obsessions include Everlea, Lions and Tigers and Bears, Boys Like Girls, Athlete, and the Ordinary Boys.
And I've secretly developed an obsession with Lady Sovereign. She's fabu :)
