I have been running around like crazy for the last several weeks...working and holidaying. Cannot wait for the summer to come...hoping for a bit of a break. Anyway here's the update:
Opening Day: (Cinci and then at Home) CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! CUBS WIN! We won the actual opening day, but better yet, won our home opener -- which we haven't often in recent years. The weekend was not a disappointment as we swept the Cardinals.
Holy Week: Was a blur of activity. Mostly it was me working a lot trying to meet some deadlines. I worked until 4 AM on Friday morning and missed Holy Thursday mass. It stunk, but the nice thing was, I met the deadline and didn't have to worry about it over the weekend.
Easter Sunday: Crazy. 21 people in my parents house for the holiday. Yes, I did clean the upholstery -- seems to be my thing. My sister stayed in Ohio and went to Easter with Jason's family. That was the only bummer. I missed having her home.
Present Day: Derek Lee broke his wrist in 2 places. Argh. It's April. What a bummer! I was listening to people b**ch about the Cubs last night and the Tribune Co and Hendry and MacPhail and I thought, it is April 20th, this can't be happening already. I actually said that I couldn't think this way in April. I just couldn't. So today, I officially start my "Call Brandon Sing Up" campaign. I figure he is a good hitter, a decent fielder and he is available in our own farm system. Can't he help out while we wait? I mean, ESPN 1000 was saying all these crazy things like get Clemens (how is that helping), get Soriano (yes, someone else who can't field / throw)...can't we look within and work with something we already have?
Okay. That is what I am thinking for now. Have another entry forming in my head. Hope to post it soon.
