Back to the real world

Finally going back to work. Wow. I think I've forgotten what a normal life with a job is like. And responsibility. For the past three months the most responsibility I've had is paying bills and making sure I get the dogs outside on time. But, unfortunately, the only way to tell if I'm ready for those long twelve hour night shifts, standing and walking all night with a bad knee, is to actually go ahead and do it. But, at least I'll be able to rebuild the bankroll.

Ok Tigers, pick what you're planning on doing, cause this win streak-lose streak-win streak is getting old. I so wish I would have looked ahead of time, becouse they are up in Seattle this whole weekend, and I didn't realize it until Wednesday, way too late to get anybody to go with me, and of course, they will be back in Seattle again, on the worst possible weekend. The 4th of July weekend. Man that sucks. And alot of my friends are gonna be gone, too. And what went on in that game Saturday? Two guys getting thrown out at home, one of which should've been safe? What ever happened to running over the catcher? I realize its a bit dirty, and its only the beginning of the season, but come on; Ichiro's way too good to just waltz on up to home plate without a challenge. RUN HIM OVER! But, at least they won.

The Red Wings kicked off the playoffs with a gut wrencher. I was quite stressed. Really, how much more stressful can it get than not tying it up until the last 5 minutes of the game, then having that goal reviewed, and then taking it into double overtime? You guys are killing me! And I had to go to a bbq, so as soon as the first OT ended, I ran the dogs outside, then got in the car and raced (yes, I really, really raced) over to my friends house, ran inside and ordered the channel switched over to the game. I joined in after missing the first 18 seconds of the second OT (NO THANKS TO THAT SLOW FREAKIN' MINIVAN!!!). But, my boys came through with the second miracle goal of the night (seriously, if you didn't see both the tying and winning goals, they were spectacular), both of them compliments of Kirk Maltby.

The Pistons start tomorrow afternoon, and the Wings play as well - AT 10 IN THE FRICKIN' MORNING OUT HERE!. Yeah, im enthused. I just love getting up in the morning. NOT!

Update: The Red Wings lost. AARRHHHGGG!!
