A Day of Mourning…

Posted under How I See It by Mike

Angels_logoYes, we were the Boston Beaters we just couldn’t be the Yankee Killers.  This morning I’ve resigned myself to a little self pity on the 5-2 loss to the Yankees.  I’ll get over it.  Really, I will.  There is always next season and since these Angels have found a way to beat their Boston nemesis, it’s now time to figure out how to win it all.

My blogging has been take a back seat of late and I need to make amends.  I’ve no good excuse other than I’ve been really busy.  Yeah, I know, what is a guy who has no job, teenage kids who can drive themselves and a wife who works mean by busy.

I’ve been writing for various content sites and have been solicited to write a few articles for some ezines out there.  I guess living life as a dad, husband and a father of teenagers (daughters!) has given me more than enough ammunition  I mean, stories to write.

I’m still hunting for that legendary job out there.  Want ads and classifieds can be very depressing in this economy.  But I haven’t given up hope and neither has my wife or my exwife (she needs the child support). 

The good news is that there are only six months until Spring Training.  I just have to survive football and hockey season….

  1. M@ Said,

    football sucks. Get familiar with http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/ and enjoy the offseason festivities. I think we’ll be dealing a lot more than you will tho.

    Can I have Lackey please, you can keep his attitude tho ;)

    Sorry it happened man, I really was rooting for you. Thought you might have a shot until Saunders gave up those runs.

    My condolences. I grew up in Cleveland so I know a little about self-pity when it comes to sports teams.

    Good luck with the hunt for the ever-elusive job. These things take time and you haven’t been out of work that long. Glad to hear you’re keeping busy with writing and with life. I’ve also been having a bit of a blog-slump Sometimes you just need a break. Enjoy!

    Oh this year was a little rough in our house. Especially since we’re now Bostonians, and L.A. is my husband’s hometown.

    Congratulations on the writing work. I’m still looking to do the same.

  6. Anne in SC Said,

    Way to go on the writing gigs! Hopefully more good things will come along.
    And I have been busy too – feeling like it’s just an excuse as well, but the days really do just get away from us! I exactly know where you’re coming from on the “busy” front (and on the sporting front too – though my woes are college football related – even though this season hasn’t been too horrible).
