A little background for those who don't know. But the curse of the bambino, aka Babe Ruth, was started in Sudbury, MA, the town which I cover for the newspaper. To make a long story short, people believe his piano is buried in a pond in Sudbury becuase he lived in the town while playing for the red sox and finding it will reverse the curse. They've ( Read more... )

It amazes me the controversy surrounding gymnastics at these Olympics, so I feel the need to say something. I love this sport and follow it closely and it’s so sad to see judges’ mistakes and decisions are overshadowing everything about gymnastics. And it really started before Paul Hamm won gold and the Korean’s took silver and bronze. It began two ( Read more... )

Okay, so it's not for 2 months, but plans are in the works for my grandma and me to visit my cousin, his wife and their new baby in Austin, Texas, in October. Yay ( Read more... )

Have you every had one of those days where everything is just a bit off? Well, today I’m having one. It started when I woke up, just feeling overall strange like I shouldn’t be getting up and it was the wrong thing to do. Then I got in my car and was bewildered when I realized I needed gas. I totally thought I remembered getting it Thursday or ( Read more... )

Only Boston people will really care about this, but did you guys hear the Red Sox traded Nomar??? This was so stupid, in my opinion. Just as stupid as when they traded Shea Hillenbrand last year. With the Nomar trade we get 2 players - whatever. I'm so pissed off right now. Nomar IS the Red Sox ( Read more... )

make me sleepy. I don't really feel like being at work today. Not for any particular reason, just don't want to be here. It might have something to do with the weather. Rainy, dreary days like this just make me want to curl up under the covers. Considering how quiet it is around here today, I think many people may have decided to do that. lol ( Read more... )

I guess VH1 has started their "I love the 90s" specials because I've caught 2 of them so far. Ironically, in both, New Kids were involved. The first one I saw, I think ws 1991, and they were talking about the "I've fallen and I can't get up" commercial and in the background VH1 was playing Step By Step. lol It was pretty funny ( Read more... )

A friend of mine from high school (I think she was 2 years older than me) is possibly going to the olympics! I was one of the managers for track in high school and this girl, Summer Pierson, was on the team and so we became good friends. I vaguely remember her saying one day she wanted to go the olympics. Her being older, we totally lost touch when ( Read more... )
