I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yeah, we had the cloth-covered wiring and one outlet per wall when we moved in here, too. And no, you couldn't make coffee and toast at the same time.
Yep. You could tell where the washer was in its cycle by the lights dimming throughout the house. Good times...

Loved the house but owning it would have required a wrecking ball and architect.

My mother scared my last landlord into putting in an outlet in the bathroom. It was a fairly modern apartment, but in the summer, when the window air condition was running in the summer, I had to turn off all the lights to use the microwave.

Sweet! A's win in the bottom of the 9th, beating the Yankees!

::runs around like a Muppet::

Emmett's fever has abated so I'm sending him back to school tomorrow.

Incidentally, Bostoners and New Yorkers, if you feel a disturbance in the force this weekend, that would be Emmett arriving in your fair cities. His Mom is taking him east for spring break. He'll be landing in NYC on Friday. Going to Beantown Saturday through Thursday. Back to NYC Thurs -Sun. Then back home.

He's about 4'5" now, will definitely be wearing a baseball hat and his hair is to his shoulders. Say hi to him if you see him on the street.

Baseball and rain - non-mixey things, and yet....tonight's A's game was fantastic.

Ahhhhhhhhhh. I love the feeling after watching a good game and getting the win. I also love the gentle buzz of the perfect application of just enough alcohol.

What do I do with a 220 outlet in a bedroom? That feels like I need to put in a call to Tim Taylor.

Great cross post! Sending out baseball vibes to Hec.

JZ was complaining early on: "Why did you introduce something else into my life that's stressful and nervous-making?" But later admitted that the ending was thrilling. Two things that have my full confidence: Huston Street in the 9th when his tongue is hanging out and Marco Scutaro coming to the plate in the 9th at home with a man in scoring position.

The Red Sox lost tonight, but as long as the Yankees did too, it all balances out.

I'm glad Emmett is feeling better.

Hec, we were AT the game, with the rain falling out of the sky and everything.

Actually by that point DH was asleep in the car and I was watching the rest of the game with my Coliseum buddies.

Heh, and we made A-Rod look like the punk he is! Big talk after he hit a slam last night - but we whiffed him twice! Swinging!

I figured you were. When the lightning flashed here in SF I knew the game would get dumped on. On TV it looked like it was pouring. Glad Marco wrapped it up without extras. Dude's so baseball smart. In the post-game he said, "I saw Cano cheating towards the bag so I figured they'd pitch me in, and I looked to drive it."
