plumb forgot

Last night I remained oblivious to the All-Star Game. Seems Miguel Tejada was the hero---that's nice. There was a good piece on him in USA Today, of all things, on a day I was waiting for a bagel.

Go AL! The upstart, yet more sentimental, natural grassy league, with a heart for the old guys. Its biggest flaw: (of course) the Yankees.

If you are a Yankee fan, please don't tell me.

That reminds me of a great line from Television Without Pity, regarding a challenge showdown between Rob Mariano and Ethan Zohn on Survivor: "Watching them face off is a lot like watching the Yankees play the Florida Marlins. I'm disappointed that someone has to win, but I'm extremely happy that someone has to lose." :)

I miss you. You and everyone. Thanks for the voicemail last night; I'm sorry I didn't return it, but I was boxing up junk and was afraid that if I allowed myself even the slightest break, I'd fall out of The Zone and not be able to move at all... Not even in the sense of "relocate," but just in the sense of "ambulation."

We miss you, too, man. You (we) can just feel how you (you) aren't coming back to that (your) desk, so there's no happy pretending you (you) are just out with pneumonia or the croup or shingles or some such...

I just did the cart with your last galleys in it, oh so wistfully. I guess they're gonna make me take down the medicine balls soon.

Well, hell. If I don't talk (write) with you (you) beforehand, drive carefully, etc. I look forward to your report of codomestication and the blisses thereof about which you can tell the masses!

oh, and p.s.

When it comes toNY, it's only the METS for me.

Glad to hear it, my man! Now I can still buy my next appliance from you.
