lost entries

and lost rhymes... being used to office 2007 auto-saving, i forgot to save the wordpad file and poof, the words are gone... oh well, lost an entry, and so it goes, and so it goes... yeah... and so it goes...

the appropriate end to a very challenging day (or days) all around, especially for the body, but i really don't feel like going into it all over again, so forget and whatever, in the end, i am alone with my thoughts anyway... the babbling elsewhere surely will be laden with the crap, you'll just miss out on the simple clarity without the poor-me whining that this blog was supposed to provide... seems the lines are blurring, as usual... and it's not as if these will be missed, a few words of agony amidst a series of entries poured out into various web spaces all of a sudden when i finally reconnect with the internet again... it had been a very challenging day...

so now that i am suddenly looking to open word documents again for the first time in many years and my trial copy of word 2007 is at an end of use, i am giving the ms office 2007 disk another try as i uninstalled it all and as it attempts to install in the background, i continue here... the good news is i opened the new usb hub i bought and connected the mybook and the external cd writer and have room for the 250gb portable drive i bought and also for the flash drives so i can move my work around easily... but oh well, word 2007 will not re-install and work, so off it goes and back comes office 2003, i hope, when i remember to bring home the cd and product key from work...

and then... what the hell, both of my teams fell apart, wait, all three of my teams fell apart this week and if i count the scrimmage on Sunday, that's four straight losses... tonight the first team played the best team in the league and only seven players showed up, so we had to borrow two and play one short... it did not help that i hit like crap... i pitched fine but the other team hit well and our fielding was mediocre at best... still we held a team averaging more than 20 runs a game to twelve... jackson, if you remember her as my former officemate from work, played well... we play on a few teams together... we rushed over to the other game to find our team leading 9-2, but they seemed to fall apart and lost 14-13 on a walk-off hit... we did the same thing to them last year... and that's when the phone rang...
