So my friend and I won this trip to Wrestlemania and it was pretty awesome. I don’t even really know how to write about it. I mean, it just kept getting better and better as the week wore on. The first night it was drinking in the bar with legends like Vader, Sgt. Slaughter, Dory Funk Jr. and Jim Ross. Drunk Vince saying things to the Uso brothers and Santino Marella that made them think I wasn’t that cool. Drunk Vince striking up a conversation with a stranger and finding out he is the CFO of WWE (!). Then the next day having lunch with Mick Foley and having WWE.com write a story about how lame Graeme and I are. Then Saturday meeting some new Canadian buds then going to the WWE Hall of Fame hammered and drunk dialing my parents to tell them I love them (complete with tears). THEN Wrestlemania. THEN having lunch with four WWE divas who, btw, died for my pictures of Nolan. Oh, and then going to Raw and having a legendary night with my Brotherhood of Broskis. It was… awesome, crazy, legendary, amazing, everything.
I can’t even begin to write a recap of it, but I think this about sums it up.
Oh, and also this:
Best in the world!!!!

I have been thinking about the notion of having goals lately. I have never been a person who plans that far ahead in life or sets goals with deadlines. In my experience every time I have tried, it hasn’t worked out as I planned it to. This isn’t to say that I don’t have goals, just that they don’t really mean anything. Here’s a few goals that I have.
- Own a BMW: BMW’s are awesome, one of the finest cars you can possibly drive. I’d like to drive one.
- Buy a house.
- Take all my friends to Disney World: I have this memory of my whole family (my parents, my cousins and their parents) and a few of my parent’s friends all going down to Disney World when I was a kid and I just think it would be awesome to recreate that experience with my friends because, well, we are a lot more fun. Also, Disney World is awesome.
- Be a guest on the Adam Carolla Podcast: I think I’m a funny guy, but if this ever happened I would have undeniable proof.
- Sell a screenplay: This has been a goal of mine since I was 17 years old and it will remain a goal of mine until the day it is accomplished, no matter what.
Looking at that list these are all decent goals, right? Maybe a little farfetched, but definitely some things to strive for. The thing is if I were to accomplish #5, the rest would be pretty damn easy to accomplish because they are all tied into money and success. Without money, I am not going to get to drive a BMW and that’s just the way it is. Does that make these bad goals? Does that make me a failure if I never accomplish any of them? I don’t think so, but if I did accomplish them all it’d be pretty fucking awesome wouldn’t it? In the end that’s why I set them and set them so high because if I don’t accomplish them I can live with that and still be happy, but if I do accomplish them it will be the coolest thing ever and we’ll all go to Disney World.
