How to Settle Up?

"Twenty bucks says that I find rejection letter from New School in the mail when I get home," I grumbled to myself this morning after being frozen out of my email, voicemail, and the shared drive on the network at work this morning.

"You're on!" I answered back.

Really, I think I was agreeing with myself that such an event would be a fitting end to a shitty beginning. Probably that doesn't make it a bet, then. If it is legit, then I owe myself $20. The only item in the mailbox was a letter from a friend that also contained tickets to Mets games this summer.

Ooooh, baseball! Despite the Met's auspicious start (already a key pitcher is injured!), and my cluelessness regarding how the Cubs began their 100th season since their last World Series championship, I am psyched. Play ball! Twenty bucks says the season ends with both my home teams tanking...

  1. I'm going to be a Tigers fan, maybe go to some games this summer. We can talk baseball.

  2. The Cubs have dropped their first two games. As have the Tigers. But! It's early! (I'm always hopeful.)

    The Boyfriend went to the Tigers game today. Between the loss and the construction on 75, his mood was not good.

    I will be at some Tigers games this year and I'm going back to Wrigley Field to see the new brick walkway. We bought a brick in memory of my husband and though I have the replica, I want to see the real thing!

  3. The Boyfriend would like me to point out that he is far too smart to get caught in any traffic on 75 and was actually in a good mood. But nonetheless, he hates losing. Especially to Kansas City.
