Geez...could I get a more masculine bag please?

I went shopping at American Eagle the other day. They were offering free movie tickets if you tried on a pair of jeans, so as I had nothing else to do, me, my bro, and a friend hit an AE outlet. Surprisingly, I found a pair of reasonably prices, boot cut (looks like I've started the transition) jeans, and so I bought them.

However, the only snag was that AE bags aren't the best for promoting the image of a smart-yet-strong heterosexual [in my opinion]. A simple brown (or whatever solid colored background AE was "feelin") with the logo would do the trick. A bright blue bag, with pictures of ridiculously good looking teens does nothing but attract the eye. And judgement.

But after eating a steak dinner and playing tennis, I felt like a man again. Or rather, I didn't feel dirty.

....

Gah! Who am I kidding...I'll probably go back sometime for more pants...

Soccer bandwagon, tennis, sports misc.

Thanks to MSN sports, I read that Italy beat Germany, and will advance to Finals for the World Cup. In keeping with my usual pattern of becoming interested in THE championship for whichever particular [televised] sport (well, there are some exceptions), I now hope that France beats Portugal and then beats Italy for the win.

......

Or do I?

Italy is a place that's always interested me, and I'm more familiar with [tastey] Italian cuisine than French. Oh well, I guess that if it comes down to the "Battle of the Blues" (both teams are called that), I'll be happy for whoever wins.

More pleasing to me is that Wimbledon is in full swing (pardon the pun)! I'm going to have to do some taping; work prevents me from watching.

Finally, I think I'm going to invest in some fencing equipment and have my own jacket, pants, etc. A part of me is excited about it [fencing] again, and if I join USFA, I'll be more involved. Ah, good stuff.

Oh! Not finally! Speaking about buying stuff, I've been debating whether or not to buy a basketball hoop. It'd be fun to have something to do outside, and shooting hoops is really the only solitary activity I could do.

And I plan on playing on ultimate frisbee sometime soon.
