Lazy Days

My entire April was a furious storm of deadlines, group meetings and test preparations. Now that's it's May, there is none of that. I have spent the last two mornings drinking coffee and being lazy. It's been pretty awesome.

Anyway, I have been watching a lot of baseball and sport related television, and my absolute least favorite sport fan base is the Cubs. Full disclosure, I am a serious Cardinals fan. I have a lot of friends who are Cubs fans so they should know that the comments that are about to occur, are not directed toward them, and really, no one should take anything I say serious (it's all in the spirit of trash talking), but for the most part, Cubs fans are the biggest bunch of crybaby bandwagon fans ever. That being said, there is another sports fan base that is beginning to get on my nerves even more, and that is Yankee fans. The Yankees are always spending the off season spending ridiculous amounts of money on players that had a good year previously. It seems that team chemistry always takes a back seat to whoever is hot. The sad part is that it seems Yankee management has to do this in order to keep their fans happy, then if the Yankees start off mediocre through the first 30 games, which they have, Yankee nation is ready to fire the coach and proclaim some of their off season acquisitions as a waste of money, etc. Seriously, Yankee fans, chill out. You guys are making yourself look like even bigger crybabies than Cubs fans, and it's sad.

I don't start working until Wednesday. I will start with Wonderstate media, and probably toward the end of the month I will start working with my contractor friend. We will be redoing a kitchen. Should be fun.
