So the Sox and Cubs start the day even - both with 1-2 records and in 4th place in each of our divisions (OK, tied for 3rd actually). I feel good about that. <snicker>

I had to give the game yesterday to the Yankees. I mean, home opener. 80th season in Yankee Stadium. Lots of payroll. I thought losing 3-1 wasn't bad... considering who we were playing.
So, today I was able - due to my unemployment - to watch the game on TV. Oooooooo it was nice to watch. In the 9th, though, I thought I was going to watch a replay of that damn season opener against the Royals. But, going up 9-1 on the Yankees? Do you know how happy that makes me feel? I don't know who I hate more - the Cubs or the Yankees (sorry, Erin, I gotta say that... I'm just not a fan of them...). So, we trounce the Yankers 9-3. Jon Garland pitched 8 innings and gave up 4 hits and 1 run, but walked 7.

Well, I slept-in as much as I could. Carol is off today, and it's my first day of unemployment this time around. Made the obligatory phone call to my recruiter (I guess that's necessary to tell them "I have completed the project. What else to you have for me?", which - somehow - triggers eligibility for unemployment.
And so it starts again...
At least there's baseball to watch this afternoon...
