Last night was an evening to truly remember. Due to my mother pulling some strings, I watched a baseball game with my grandfather, sans anyone else with us. The game itself was good, even if my self-proclaimed Charlie Brown team took nearly seven innings without scoring a single point! We ended up getting three points prior to the top of the eighth inning. (The opposing team took nearly the entire game and only scored one point during the top of the ninth.)

I had an amazing time with my grandfather and wouldn't mind doing this with him again. My mother informed me that doing this with him would build character and patience; the patience thing I'm still working on, but I believe I built some character throughout last night.

This afternoon, I'll be heading to the theatre and get to see X-3: The Last Stand. The Phoenix makes her appearance, if not the Dark Phoenix as well, and things may finally come to a head in this stunning addition to the X-Men saga. I'm even more eager to see this, as well as somewhat impatient on when Spider-Man 3 will be released.

Today makes it official-to me, anyway. Within one month from today, I will reach an age I truly didn't see myself making, especially after what I've went through a number of years ago. That stuff being my leg, having surgery on my head, and what happened on Christmas in 2002 concerning the dog. I should feel happy about it, and probably will be as the day grows nearer, but at the moment...I'm not sure how I feel about it. It could be a case of uncertainty, or doubt. Still, I hope it will pass.

I managed to make it through May 13th with ease, and enjoyed my cousin's birthday party; she's now officially nine years old. On Mother's Day, I was successfully able to buy my mother a journal, though not just any regular journal-it was a Footprints journal, since when I was younger, I always remembered her enjoying it and having a calendar with it. (For those who don't know what I'm talking about, here is a link to see what I mean.)

I also went to my grandmother's grave with my mother and grandfather, and gave her a rose. I'll never fully get over losing her, but know she's at peace and that is something to be thankful for.

I'm going to a baseball game with one of my friends this evening, and my mother and grandfather may-or may not-be joining us. I just hope the Charlie Brown team can pull the proverbial wool over my eyes and win again.

This will be a short entry, due to the caution of time. For the most part, my week in general has been ho-hum, with a smidgen of excitement yesterday. I'll explain about the good in a paragraph or so, then onto the bad.

Yesterday, while at Heroes and buying Gotham Central #34 and The Return of Donna Troy #3 of 4-the conclusion is scheduled to come out later this month-I came across The Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day #2 and #3, so I bought them, choosing to wait until sometime next week to get Detective Comics #809. (since the issue I didn't get crosses over with Batman.) I was a bit displeased that issue #1 of The Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day wasn't there, since that is the best cover out of the three issues.

Now, onto the bad-I had plans to spend a baseball game with two of my friends, yet earlier today, I hear that one of them already has other plans, while the other doesn't know if he'll be able to go to the game, having made plans with his mother. Spending time with family is commendable to me, yet the least they both could've done was inform me before agreeing to seeing the game...! The quote for today comes from one of my two recently purchased back issues.

"They need some damned direction...They need to be taught." -Nightwing, The Titans/Young Justice: Graduation Day #2-Commencement
