NY Mets 2006 NL East Champions!!
I believe in the church of baseball. I've tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones.I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic's rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I learned that, I gave Jesus a chance. But it just didn't work out between us. The Lord laid too much guilt on me. I prefer metaphysics to theology. You see, there's no guilt in baseball. And it's never boring, which makes it like sex...It's a long season and you gotta trust it. I've tried them all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the church of baseball - Annie Savoy Bull Durham

yup, stuff
i did stuff today. no really, i did. now this may not seem like much to some, but when you are having a downswing and everything is piling up around you in precarious stacks, stuff is good. any stuff.
and today i did some fun stuff and some important stuff and i even got some annoying stuff out of the way.
drove the new car...weeeeeee! then came home and...sit down folks....finished my writing sample for my applications. oh yeah, and whipped up a response paper for the pointy pedantic bitch of the west.
big fluffy pillows are calling me. loudly. who am i to argue? after all, big day of doing stuff tires one out.
