I know that the Blog lately has been preoccupied with Boston sports.... but what do you expect???? The Sox won the World Series, and the Patriots are treating the NFL like a bunch of scrimmage teams. Would you rather that I reverted to New Testament quotations? Actually, that isn't a bad idea.

Today I have a tightly controlled schedule at Nanepashemet Telecom, with little room for variation or spontaneity. I guess that's something that you strive for in a small business. But now you substitute working for the Man, for working for the Clock. Thinking about it though,...the Clock is the better deal.

Burned Out
Today was a day that should have been a holiday.
~
It was impossible to go to sleep before 2:00 AM last night because of the freaking Red Sox World Series sweep. Waking up, there was still some adrenaline left over, so I didn't really get hit with fatigue until about 3:00 PM today. By that time I was driving from a Cell site on the South Shore, and the tired feeling hit me like a ton of bricks.
~
I'm almost too tired to Blog.
Tremendous Sweep
They won the World Series. Holy Shit.
~
Hard to Believe. The Red Sox have done it again. Phenomenal.
~
I didn't expect a sweep. So glad to be wrong. Sweet. The Curse is so dead. 2004 was no fluke.
~
My father would have been so happy. Hopefully he knows.
Congratulations to a fine team.

Could be a Dream
Bottom of the 7th. I'm starting to dare that the Sox will hold onto a 3 to nothing lead and sweep the Series. Hope I didn't jinx it.... the Rockies just hit a home run. Now it's 3-1.
~
The Patriots continued their unprecedented dominance today, beating a Redskins team that was 4 and 2 coming into the game by 45 points.
~
We will look back at this time with fond memories.

Sunday Excitement
Sox won in Denver... now they are 3 and 0 and could clinch the Series tonight. It's nice to see them so dominant. Plus the Patriots play the Redskins this afternoon at 4:15. Dave Bruett said something about a gathering at the Gerry for the first half. Could be a fine idea.
~
Too much excitement for one day..... I'll have to pace myself.
~
My Manny shirt was a bust last night. The transfer Iron-on paper really didn't work well. It was a great idea though. I should get credit for that alone. Another fun Crawford Halloween party. I felt bad for Will Crawford with his MaryLou Retton gym tights on. That had to hurt, even for Will.
~
Got to see the two baby Wills - Crawford and Nestor... plus the always lovely Maddie Gill. Great additions to the holiday parties this year.
~
High tide is at 1:00 this afternoon. I can feel a good Harbor Row coming on, before the main events begin.

Ambitious Plans
Stuff to do on Saturday.
- Assemble my Manny disguise for the Crawford's "M" Halloween party.
- Attach the Dory frames to the Dory bottom and Strongback.
- Get a Rowing workout in around Marblehead Harbor in the Tender. (High Tide tomorrow is around noon time.)
- Rake the leaves at the house and Sundance School.
- Have beers at the Gerry.
Tempus Fugit
Did it seem to you like this week flew by? It's seems like yesterday when we were watching the Pats on the Peabody's deck. No running, no boating, no fishing, no dory work. Just the Project Management business and the World Series made the Time pass quickly.
Staying Put
Sox are 2-0 in the Series. You have to admit, they look really good. I'm sticking with my original Sox in six prediction though.

Peep of the Week - 43
Thursday came super quick this week. What with the World Series and all of the action at the bird feeder, it was damn busy.... not to mention that Nanepashemet Telecom is getting hot as a pistol. The Dory is suffering and my Running training is definitely on the back burner.
~
But enough about me. What about you and your life?? Ok..... I'll admit I could care less.

It's not that I'm indifferent to your plight, it's just that my life is just so much more interesting to me.

Series Opener
Did I mention that the Red Sox won the first World Series game 13-1 last night over a flat Colorado Rockies team??? The Rockies can't be that bad. Tonight's game should be more interesting.
Nuthatch Update
Peeps.....
~
I know that you're as excited as I am, but please stop emailing me about the White Breasted Nuthatch!!!!
~
Yes... it was back this morning, but I don't have the time to report every sighting.
~
Why don't you get your own damn bird feeder????
