and just getting home again

long non-stop day learning more and more and taking care of business as well as i am able... several clear steps forward for the systems and place and corporate needs, and everyone appears to be happy with the progress... some big steps, some baby steps, some big baby steps, all forward so far...

and then rushing across town in bumper to bumper traffic with the car overheating to get to the playoffs... rush rush rush and the other team doesn't show up... so i went to get dinner and buy some warm clothes cuz a t-shirt was chilly as the temperature dropped into the 50s (it's 52 degrees now, that's about 11 celcius for my non-F friends)... yeah, not exactly t-shirt and shorts weather... of course spending money on clothes i have dozens of at home was a grump, but i played warm and comfy and ate hot soup and we are the champions my friends... against all odds as we only had nine players which meant an automatic out when the tenth spot in the batting order came up and we had a lineup error that game us another out so we had two automatic outs every nine batters... i had to pitch carefully as we were not going to score as many runs as usual and the team we were playing had just won big like 16 to 9 in six innings so they were warmed up, revved up, and high on confidence... we played seven full innings and won 11 to 3, so i did my job and the top seven batters did their job (i went 2 for 3, but an auto out before and after me left me stranded... i did knock in two runs though by beating out two infield grounders... yes, beating out two infield grounders)...

the championship t-shirts are medium quality and an off burnt orange, but hey, yay for winning...

and now, rest, eat, shower, rest, sleep... early and long day tomorrow...
