I was on the Cape for the weekend and did not get home to western MA until last night. (Plus we never eat Mexican---it stopped agreeing with us years ago.) <br /><br /><br />But we do eat there at least once or twice a month (usually Italian food), so keep your eyes open for me next time around!!<br /><br />(I would recognize you and would never ignore you!)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-16566756230475278452009-10-13T04:42:15.172-07:002009-10-13T04:42:15.172-07:00A couple of points here that are right on....Theo ...A couple of points here that are right on....Theo stated what a lot of us felt going into the series. I know I never felt jacked up about this being number III in my lifetime. Maybe next year we'll be feeling it. And yes ...watching Street last night was almost like deja vu all over again. Still hard to complain about our lot...I like Allan's math 2004 +3 =2007, + 3= 2010.

And it was good to meet some of you in person in '09.<br /><br />Side note: I went to Northampton today and I'm pretty sure Amy was at the next table at the Mexican place. I didn't say anything, since I wasn't quite sure it was her--until she started to walk out at which point I said "Amy!" semi-loud, but either she didn't hear me or it wasn't her...<br /><br />Back to middle note: I was at Game 3.

I no longer can lose sleep like that and feel too good the next day...or week.<br /><br />I think Theo's quote is telling. Is he referring to Pap's prior meltdowns? The long dry spells for the offense? Something else?<br /><br />I love the Giamatti quote, but it makes me sad.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-9422673076164532362009-10-12T14:22:14.653-07:002009-10-12T14:22:14.653-07:00Zen, I had a similar rationalization today.

It's a rationalization with a capital "r", but I'll take it.Zenslingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06040836002694584468noreply@blogger.com
