Yankees @ Cardinals
Going to the game on Friday! I originally posted this with my phone’s camera, but it didn’t look good at all. Many, many, many thanks to my friends Jim and Stacey for allowing me to tag along with them for this game!!
I’m excited about this game, but I’m sad I won’t be going with CL. 
She said it was ok that I went without her, and she knows how big a deal this is to me. I debated about it over and over, and with vacation a week away, I still have a lot to do. But I realized – when am I gonna get another opportunity like this?
sports catch-up
Monday night, the Cards overcame a 6-run deficit against the Reds by scoring 7 runs in the 9th inning. Of course, I missed it all.
St. Louis 10, Cincinnati 9
I did get to see Jason Marquis pitch a 3 hitter in 8 innings last night:
St. Louis 4, Cincinnati 2
In the NBA playoffs, my boy, Ray Allen (UConn, baby!) led the Seattle Sonics to its first playoff series win last night. Allen led with 30 points despite being double-teamed all night (Ray scored 45 points the previous game).
Seattle 122, Sacramento 118

last opener at Busch
Friday! A beautiful day, sunny, low 70′s, with the Cardinals opening their final season at Busch Stadium against the Phillies. Cards are down at the moment, 4-5, bottom of the 8th, 2 outs, and the bases are loaded with Larry Walker at the plate. Exciting stuff! Man, I wish I was at Busch right now.
It was dress-down day at work to support the Cardinals. I went to the 10:00 meeting regarding Code 44. Code 44 took all but 3 minutes. The rest of the time they talked about ABN’s. Wasted my time.
My foot feels better, but there is still pain. I can walk now without looking like a dork. I’ll continue the ibuprofen until it goes away.
They walked in the tying run! Bases loaded, and Albert Pujols is up.
Omigosh, they walked in another … the Cards are now winning 6-5!
Anyway, busy day at work; very unmotivated due to the circumstances I explained at the beginning of this post. Discovered someone else is unhappy with one of the team members. I just wonder if there’s an end in sight to the frustrations we feel in the dept.
Hope to get a lot done this weekend outside. I also hope for it to be slow and relaxing. Yeah, right.
Til the next time … have a great weekend!
