• It safe to say at this point, I’ve got a very serious case of Cubs fever. The games on Monday and tonight were so exciting and the crowd was so into the games and that makes me even more excited. I really believe they are going to go to the playoffs and then, who the hell knows what will happen. Of course, how many times has this team done this to me, I believe and then in the end, I have my heartbroken. And yet, I keep coming back for more. Its ok, its going to be worth it when they finally win, whether its this year or several years from now (and by several I mean, up to 50 years). I’m even considering driving down to Cincinnati next Saturday for the game and then driving home right afterwards. See, they potentially could clinch that day and let’s face it, how many times am I going to get a chance to see them clinch?

  I’m also very excited because the garage is VERY close to being completed. I came home today and Toby had all of the siding on. We had to go to Lowe’s to return some plywood and pick up a few last second things. The only thing that remains for him to do is put on the doorknob, put some shit on the roof, install some vents in the fascia and put some wood around the garage door and he will be done. He thinks he should be able to finish that up on Friday. Then I have to paint the wood around the garage door and it will be all done! I feel a lot of gratification, as I have been trying to get this done for 2 years. I’ve had to put up with so much bullshit to get this done that I’m thinking I might have a garage warming party sometime next spring.
