Yesterday I watched the Red Sox-Yankees game with my grandmother. I haven't seriously watched baseball in a long time - my attention span finally gave out, plus I probably burned myself out on it a little. I was reading some of my old entries last night, some of them are pretty intense. While baseball had my attention, it had ALL my attention, and some of the teams I followed (of COURSE I followed more than one at a time, see above in re: attention span) were absolutely insane and exhausting. I'm not sure how I didn't lose my damn mind. Actually, I think I did a few times.

But anyway, I still get game score alerts for my teams, and since my grandmother has become an ardent Red Sox fan in the last couple of years, watching a game with her is a lot of fun. Except I still don't pay much attention overall, and you know what? Baseball may still be kind of static in my head, but it's moved on.

A lot of guys are in the wrong damn uniforms these days. The Yankees need to stop signing/trading for players I still love, what the hell. Curtis Granderson got a homerun yesterday and I couldn't decide whether to cheer or swear. And I see you in those pinstripes, Lance Berkman, don't you think for a second that you can hide.

But anyway. Seeing some familiar faces got me all nostalgic, and I ended up spending entirely too much time reading a slew of entries from some certain old RP journals. (Hey,

americanleaguer, did we ever talk about this in any depth? It seems like we should have, but I can't remember!) So out of curiosity, I Googled Bondo.

And I . . . I really picked the right day to do that.

When potential free agent Jeremy Bonderman was asked if he feels he'll be back, he replied "honestly, probably not."

Brandon Inge hopes Jeremy Bonderman won't call it a career. (I see Inge is still the go-to guy for a few quotes. Heh.)

This is probably old news to everyone else, but I am WTFing. Jeremy Bonderman, if you end up in pinstripes, I am going to be so mad at you.

I found something relevant going through my emails, but I can't find it again now. But I think they almost slept together? Except Kyle was overly aggressive for Justin's tastes, probably because Justin's issues at this point made Bondo look well-adjusted? I'm not sure exactly. I think I have sort of vaguely assumed that Kyle and Justin stayed friends, though this may be influenced by the hilarious AU and the AU AU it in turn spawned.

All those logs are, of course, on the scary-grindy-sound-making computer. I may risk a salvage attempt - it's not like I have any reason to want to avoid accidentally destroying it at this point other than a vague concern that it might light on fire or something.

LOL STILL READING I REMEMBER HAVING TO MAKE THAT PICKUP OF A DRUNK FRIEND RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE AND BEING SO PISSED OFF. HA HA OMG.

The AUs! What the hell was all that?! Oh maaaaaan, the memories. If you do pick up that Justin stuff definitely send it along, this is all entertaining as fuck for me now.

SO MANY PLOT BUNNIES, NO, BAD.

I found an email with incomplete versions of the AUs as attachments! I'd sent them to you to get a page count. I read through them and they are RIDICULOUS and (on my part, anyway; I tend to have this problem with logs that go too long) suffer so badly from the unevenness of RPing through the same night over a period of weeks. I mean, they were just self-indulgent fun, so I have no actual standards for them, but they are still hilarious.

I cannot even begin to tell you how differently I would approach playing !Bondo now. The passage of time has changed him a lot. He is definitely not a kid anymore. I have given this quite a bit of thought during all the rereading. XD

OK, I will have to look for those. They're probably still in my email... somewhere...

What little I remember about Kyle and Justin is probably totally mixed up with AU things and whatever 'really' happened, I have no idea.

I cannot even begin to tell you how differently I would approach playing !Bondo now. DON'T TEMPT ME WITH THIS, THAT IS SIMPLY CRUEL

Ditto. They hated each other cordially for a while, and then that changed when Kyle and Vance became friends, and that's all I'm absolutely sure of as being "canon."

DON'T TEMPT ME WITH THIS, THAT IS SIMPLY CRUEL

God, I know, aren't I awful?

and I am dying at Kyle's incoherence here. I need to get someone with very few brain cells smashingly drunk in a fic so I can write that again.

yes omg. Drunk!Kyle still kills me with lols in the good way. :D
