Day 57, Dec. 9 - will blog for xanax

Of course the natural thing to be thinking about as the end of the year approaches is....baseball. And, as any Cubs fan knows, that means stress in general but now my husband is rumored to be in the center of a trade.

So, Mr. Hendry please take note of the following:

Notice that he has swung.

Notice that the ball is not in the catcher's mitt.

Why, because he HIT it. Something the Cubs need.

Find another way to get Peavey.

Please.

(and a belated thanks to Nikki for the photo!...see, it did go to good use)

Day 55, Dec. 7 - part deux

Okay....three earthquakes today around LA.

Or so I am told.

Oh, and the Bears won!

Day 55, Dec. 7 - Whole lotta shakin

Since I've been here there have, apparently, been two earthquakes. The most recent was a 5.1 aftershock of an earthquake that happened 9 years ago. I felt neither. But I did hear the sonic boom as Endeavor reentered the atmosphere. I figure I'm winning (so far).

Another good thing about LA is that the football games start at 10am, so I can watch them with coffee & the paper. Not your average experience, but it also doesn't take up the entire day.

Go Bears!

It's forecast to be 70 today.
