How Long Has It Been?

since I've had sex? I dunno. I stopped counting the days. I thought I had a shot last friday, the MILF went out drinking with some gal pals, but sadly Aunt Flo stopped by just prior. Maybe next week.

The Sox are not playing well enough right now to win the division. Seventeen games into the most important 21 games of the year, and they are 9-8, including 4-2 against the AL Central leading Tigers heading into Thursday mornings contest. Still they are 6 and 1/2 games back. I'm not sure what's wrong. Maybe they've been spoiled by their success? I was at the game on Wed August 16th when they lost to the lowly Kansas City Royals 10-4. They just had no emotion at all. Lunch on friday with my buddy from the Minnesota Twins - I'll see if I can get some inside angle from him...

I spent some time on the southside yesterday - Hyde Park to be specific. Took the old IC line - now the Metra Electric line - down to 57th. Walked west to the U of C bookstore and picked up a cool shirt on sale for $10, and a copy of Les Mis for $5. Walked across the Quad and back down 57th Street and marveled at what an amazingly beauitiful urban neighborhood Hyde Park is...

Played softball last night. Had to pitch. We won! I only went 2 for 4 but hit the ball very solidly each time. The team we played is a team we've played (and beaten) each of the past three seasons. They have two of the most smokin hot girls that I've ever seen on their team. Playboy hot. And they're not terrible players either. They are very distracting, however... maybe that's their plan. The playoffs begin next week (I think).

Started up a fantasy football team at work. I'm just not as into it as baseball, but it will give us something to talk about around the water cooler at the salt mines. I'm also in an English Premier 'Football' (read; soccer) fantasy league with some guys from my old college radio station. I have no clue why.

I'm working like mad, and not drinking enough. Jazz music has been my saving grace. I can't stand to listen to anything with lyrics. Just chill, baby.

Up to the beach in Michigan this weekend, probably for the last time this year.
