I'm back even tho the Sox aren't

It's been about 10 mos or so since I picked up the pen [ahem, keyboard] and posted anything. I've also decided that I didn't like Live Journal (I will get the 3 posts or so that I had over there on here soon...maybe this weekend. ) For the record, I went with Live Journal originally because I wanted to be "WTFN"@ someplace. I've settled for WTF-WTFN.

As the World Series is about to begin minus my beloved BoSox, I thought it apropos to write about how I am feeling after their [un]timely exit in this year's playoffs. First off, thanks to everyone for sending your condolences. But really, I'm ok. The way I look at, until 2004, we NEVER won, so I'm used to it. Disappointed, yes, but they actually gave it a decent run in the end. I am glad that they saved face in game 5 which was legendary! (Read the SportsGuys Take)

Instead of being sad, I am going to thank them along with several people in my life for the early exit.

Reasons to be thankful:
1. "Now I can have a week back of my life!"- Matt Ketchum
2. My blood pressure will be lower.
3. I won't be so tired from watching baseball games into the wee hours. (my boss thanks them too!)
4. My liver thanks them too. I had too many beers to calm my nerves.
5. My sister is happy too, because now I won't drag her to the Riv tonight.
6. I will save a bundle on text messaging.

After the highest rated baseball telecast ever, I am sure the network (whomever it may be) is going to be sorely disappointed as I and millions of others who either love or hate the Sox and couldn't care less about the Phils or Rays tune out.

Now for my 5-1 Bills...god, I love heartbreak!
