11:50am – I leave work, having edited pretty much the entire newscast on my own, and doing a damn fine job, very little effort, and even less managerial interference. Good start.

1:15pm – I fall asleep for an afternoon nap, happily knowing that the Rangers were up on the Indians 3-0 in the middle innings of their game in Cleveland.

5:25pm – I wake up, find out the Rangers needed two homers in the 9th to beat the Indians, but they beat them regardless, which is nice. A good little two game sweep, which hopefully was enough to wake the Tribe up enough to beat Anaheim around a little bit.

7:15pm – The softball game starts, and while it was a little rough on the defensive side, with alot of walks and 11 runs scored in the first two innings, we get by all right.

8:20pm – We ended up holding them to one or two runs in the last five innings, but still lost 13-4 or 5 or something like that. Regardless, yours truly goes 3-for-3 with a couple of doubles, a run scored and two of the ugliest slides in the history of softball. (One of which was actually successful.)

8:52pm – I become an uncle for the first time. As if turning 30 three and a half months ago wasn’t enough, now I’ve got a little nephew-ette running around. But I’ve got the easy part, I just get to be cool Uncle Tony. My poor little brother is now on the 13 year clock to figure out how to beat away a stream of horny teenage boys and do a minimum amount of jail time.

Now its time for bed… or at least a little nap before work. But today was a good day. I even had a breakfast with no hog…
