Signs of spring; definitive.
I got a ticket for opening day last night. But no more searching for signs. It's definitive, it's the 20th, it's officially Spring, when a young man's fancy turns to baseball. Unless he's careless! -
Signs on Spring #3
Yesterday as I was leaving my friendly neighborhood grocer, I ran into the girl scouts peddling their cookies. Yum. Is that a sign of spring?
Before buying the cookies, I vainly stopped to think what gorging on a dozen Samoas would do to my looks. That's definitely a sign of Spring.
I look great, and bought the Samoas anyway. -
Signs of spring #2
Undeniable. A couple of weeks ago, I went on one of my favorite hikes, and saw a robin. The other day I was making conversation with a pretty stranger on the train with whom I had absolutely no business, just because I couldn't help myself. Yesterday, the Dodgers lost to the Padres in freakin' China! It's here. Spring has sprung. -

signs of spring
How do you know spring is here? I'm from L.A., I never had much use for the whole, March 21st standard. Well, i haven't decided on a definitive signal yet, no cardinals here. The irish traditionally celebrate the first day of spring on Feb. 1st. Pitchers and catchers reported on the 14th. Spring training games started today. Lent came almost as ( Read more... ) -
Congrats!
This is the kinda day that makes me wish I was a Giants fan. Congrats to y'all team for giving Tuck-Rule-Tom what he had coming, and helping me win my bet against obnoxious BU alum boss.
I think that, if you can find a silkscreener, you all should wear a t-shirt with "18-1" on it. -
Flimsy little nothing machine, hold yourself together.
After a terrific afternoon with three of the best dudes that exist, I hopped on my bike and headed to the Orange line, a double-long bus with a dedicated lane running through the valley. This machine operates the same way light-rail would. The busses have a bike rack up front which fits three of those populist machines. Sometimes there's not ( Read more... ) -
It is time.
Wooh! What a week! I finished that which I was supposed to, and now there is nothing looming over my head for my upcoming trip to New York. You hear that? It's a celebration peoples!
But seriously, I can't wait to see any of you! -

Oh man, I love a Sunday at the bulls. The day could not have gone better if it'd been scripted by professional screenwriters. No traffic on the way in. After a greasy and delicious lunch buffet, we found the plaza with relative ease. The bulls were noble, and well presented and even though the first three were a little difficult, as soon as the ( Read more... ) -
Summer Rules #1001
So the Dodgers are traveling today, so I can take a breather from all the tension. It was quite a homestand, despite being swept by our arch-rivals, the Frisco Giants. I went to the second game of the series and was surprised to see Barry Bond's lazy ass is actually shuttled to the left field in a golf cart at the top of every inning to save his ( Read more... )
