Opening Day, 2000

It sounds like the party went on for some time afterwards and was fairly entertaining, but I was too wiped out by midnight to stay any longer. I'm such a wuss!

I went jogging this morning for the first time in a few weeks. It was nice to take time off from working out, since it let me get into work earlier. I am going to try to get back into the swing of working out, though.

Spent the day getting into my current project, which started off on a low note, but has gotten much better the last couple of days, and I think I'll enjoy it now that I'm into the swing of things. I stayed later than usual coding as a result of it.

Tom was back at work today, too, after taking a week off. He was just kicking around at home. I think he played around with his new iMac at night and slept during the day.

Today was opening day of baseball season! Yay! I haven't been talking about baseball as much; I've been so preoccupied with other things that it just hasn't been on my mind as much as it sometimes is. Probably this won't change until I move.

However, I did immediately sit down when I got to work, went to Major League Baseball's audio broadcasts, and started listening to the Reds/Brewers game. It got rain-delayed around noon, so after lunch I started listening to something else, I forget exactly what, and then tuned into the Giants game around 4. When I got home tonight I turned on the A's game. Woo-hoo! A whole day of baseball! The Red Sox open tomorrow, and I'll listen to it if I can. However, Subrata and I are going to the A's game in the evening, so I may be out of luck.

Subrata's a Tigers fan, which is the team the A's are playing for the first half of the week, so since I wanted to get to a game this week, I figured he'd be up for going. He's also joined my fantasy baseball league this year which Keith runs. That should be interesting. Keith and a couple of other folks have some tremendous keepers from last year so it will be hard to contend this year.

Anyway, if nothing else I enjoy baseball season because it means there's always something to have on in the background in the evening!

I stopped by the pet store tonight and saw the most adorable two kitty-cats for sale in the store. One was five years old and had a black-and-white-and-tan complexion (despite being male), and had a little brown mottling right around the whiskers. The other was jet back. Both had medium-length hair and were completely friendly and adorable! I hope they both get good homes, they'll really be terrific for an owner who appreciates them.

I've been thinking about getting another cat, once I move and feel more settled (if I ever do). Right now I feel like I don't give my current cats the attention I deserve, so I don't feel like I can get another cat in good conscience. On the other hand, I always feel guilty about taking care of my cats! I'm a worry-wart, remember?
