Woo. Adu's debut underwhelming. Super beat from it, too, but there you go. However, it is GORGEOUS here and I am gleefully looking forward to gardening today. YAY!

In DC to see Freddy Adu's debut. Wouldn't be so bad had I not had to get up at 4:45 this am to catch Arsenal-Man U in the FA Cup. (Arse lost. Fuckers.) But here I am, in the airport, waiting for my ride. The excitement of the sportswriter never ends.

Yo,

This close to the neighborhood and no call? I'll be seeing the Distillers at the Black Cat in DC on Wednesday and have an extra ticket for the O's/Red Sox on Thursday. By Wednesday afternoon I'll probably have someone going if you don't drop me a line.

Hope things are cool.

Nothing like springcleaning to make you tired, but I do feel a huge sense of accomplishment. I now have a clean attic and back porches; today I get to paint and start stripping floors. Woo!

I got so much shit to clean. My wife moved out last week, and left most her stuff behind for me to get rid of. I keep putting it off because I don't have time. Need to do it.
metaleric:
She left clothes behind that people wouldn't wear 20 years ago. The Salvation Army probably won't even take 'em. So I'll drop off the bags at their front door and run.

Arsenal all the way tomorrow. That's about all I have to say. Lots going on here -- we've got tenants moving in as we finally bow to economic imperatives. Vote Kerry.

And I have not forgot to upload my tattoo pics-by-Hannah. They've changed the file size here to 100Kb so I have to small-i-size them.

I believe that. We're a big corporate monster that wants to engulf the world.

But in my opinion, soccer fans are soccer fans, and football fans are football fans. Both hard core and really don't care all that much about the other.

What do you know about Randy Harvey?

He's leaving the LA Times for the good 'ol Baltimore Sun.

Good weekend?

I am beginning to really hate Saturdays and they are going to start sucking even harder in two weeks when MLS starts up again. A full day of soccer scores...and then the Fire. Joy. At least they are a good team, but after getting up at 6 am to cover games, you're kinda burned on it 13 hours later, ya know?

At least it is...

Your recent post about your music collection was impressive. Between you, eidolon and myself - I bet we could open a pretty impressive record store!
Nice to hear about another fellow Chicago music junkie.
Cheers!

Good weekend in Miami, saw some good soccer (from haiti; total shit from the USA) and got a good story or two out of it. Somehow picked up a head cold. Sigh. But I got a tan, too, so there you go...
9monty:
Just about healed. I'm a peeling machine right now. Back and settled?

Welcome me to Miami. Sun. Surf. Soccer. Sleep-deprivation. A potent cocktail!

It is fuckin' cash! Arm is still a little sore, but I guess the 5.5 hours will do that.

Looks great, covers the other one very well and so far everyone back here who has seen it has loved it. Cool shop and there was a pretty steady flow all day, so there was always something to look at.

As you are well aware, Hannah is just a fab person and made me feel comfortable the whole time, even though she was a little under the weather.

Speaking of weather, I'm guessing you're holding up alright, under the sun?

Terps win the ACC Tourney over DUKE and then get a 4 seed in the tourney- I'm way geeked.

Thanks for all your help to make the tat happen.

Thanks dup.

Cool time last night and I hope the flight went well and was smooth enough to catch some z's.

We'll hang more, whether it's here or B-more.

Thanks again and enjoy the game.
