Losing didn't matter

Going to see the Red Sox play against the Phillies in Philadelphia was such a great time that it didn't matter that the Sox lost. The stadium is state of the art. Not a bad seat in the house and so fan friendly. The first 7 innings were great...the last 2?? Not so much. After the game we went to a quaint little pub on Chestnut St in downtown Philly called the Devil's Alley. We sat out on a

My roomie has a girlfriend, "B". They hooked up a few weeks after he moved in with me. He's gaga over her. I've met her and she is a sweetheart. He is GaGa over her. Every night he comes home and is filled with stories about her. Some of them are funny and interesting but most are just plain goofy "in love" types of things. The first time he came home and told me that she liked him back was like

Sometimes goodbye just takes awhile. Sometimes you need multiple goodbyes before you truly accept it. Accepting is the final stage of grief.I've been in grief for a long time. I thought it started last October but now that the story has finally played itself out I know that I started grieving 5 years ago. I wrote endlessly about it and my mind was always filled with it. With him. Hope and dreams

This guy was vying for a hen's affections. The hen was playing hard to get and didn't even acknowledge them. He and another tom strutted their stuff in front of our window at work for about an hour. I have never seen a turkey this close and in all his fanfair. It was amazing.They are probably still there but if all they are going to do is work on each other then someone inside the building needs

His hand was on her thigh, her foot wrapped around his. They sat at the picnic table totally absorbed in each other. Talking quietly. Stealing kisses. Soft laughter. He smoothed back a sprig of hair that had escaped from the tortoise clasp. Always touching. Accidentally. On purpose. He leaned and whispered some naughty secret, she giggled lightly blushing. She leaned back into his embrace as they

You hit the "OFF" button instead of "SNOOZE" on your alarm clock???Yeah me too. I woke at 6:15, which is normally the time I leave. A quick call to rideshare, an even quicker shower and driving at top speed had me there only 7 min late. She had gone to Dunkin Donuts and had my coffee waiting for me in the car. OMG...have I said how much I love rideshare??

I may need them because I may get a nosebleed, but that's OK. Mom and I ARE GOING TO A PHILLIES/RED SOX GAME!!!! We'll be in an upper deck but we'll be there!! To say we are excited is an understatement. I got the tickets through StubHub and so far it seems like a smooth transaction. We'll be there in 2.5 weeks! Woooo HooooOn a sour note, immaturity and pettiness has reared it's ugly head again.

Mom, Sarah and I are heading to PA in a month for my cousin's son's graduation. Good times are always had by all when we go down there. I was talking to Mom this morning and she was excited because the Red Sox are playing the Phillies the weekend we are down there. "The games will be televised and we can watch them in Neal's ManCave" She breathlessly said.Neal's man cave is something right out of

"How have you been?" I asked her."good" she replied"What have you been up to?" "Working and tolerating"She spoke directly to my soul. Phrased it perfectly. We have been living the same existence only coming at it from opposite ends. She is trying to get out and I'm wanting in. Same difference in the end. We are both working and tolerating.But this too shall pass.Things are going good with the
