I got to hear Ron Santo and Pat Hughes on AM radio call the Cubs 1st Spring Training game with the Chicago Cubs. They did win 12-6 against the Giants. Oh I feel the winter going away....forget about the fact that we got snow last night. I haven't stumbled upon any opening day tickets yet but I am still very hopefully that the heavens will open up and drop 2 tickets in our laps...If anyone out there knows of any PLEASE let me know. Other than the $400 ones on eBay!
Guess What I get to do on Saturday...WATCH the Cubs play on TV!!! Oh it will be a good day...Yes it will...
PLAY BALL!!!

The Good ...The Bad...and the Ugly
Well I can tell you I looked like a deflated balloon from the Macy's Thanksgiving parade. At about 10:45 opening day was sold out! Then I watched without any control as the 1st St. Louis game I wanted sells out. I finally get thru on the phone and am trying to navigate the virtual reality "Laura" to understand the tickets I want and as I am saying things over and over while "Laura" keeps saying..."I'm sorry I didn't get that could you repeat how many tickets you wanted" 2 more St. Louis games sell out. I finally get transferred to a real person and I think she had about 10 minutes of training before she answered the phone. I do get my 5th choice of game and it takes almost 20 minutes to finish my transaction. With blunder after blunder I can't believe I finally finish the purchase. Sandra the incompetent ticket sales women tries to charge me for Fed Ev at 19$ a pop to send my bleacher seat tickets to me. I explain that I have to pick bleacher seats up from will call so I don't need the shipping. Then she charges me for 3 tickets instead of 2. Finally she is going to hang up before she gives me my confirmation number which you have to have to pick up your tickets at will call. I finally ask for a supervisor to make sure my transaction went thru! After that I did get thru a couple of more times and I do get picked up on the Internet once. So my list of games is as follows:
5/26 Dodgers
8/3 Pirates
8/24 Nationals
9/1 Astros
All games are bleachers.
I'll post later about my disgust about tickets on eBay 10 minutes after they go on sale!!!
Also my ideas on trying to find reasonable priced tickets for opening day!
let's pray to the baseball gods for help!

Today's the Day...
I sit here this morning with the excitement of a third grader going to Disneyland! Single Game tickets go on sale today for the Chicago Cubs 2008 season! So I have my list of games I want to try and get and of course the order to get them in. I have gotten myself into the virtual waiting room and have the phone number in the phone ready to go...The puck drops at 10am. Sorry about the hockey reference but you know what I mean. I will say it doesn't seem to me that the virtual waiting room is working right now which kinda freaks me out but I have always had way more luck on the phone then on the puter. So I hope in about 5 hours my hard work will have paid off and we will have about 5 games to go to this year!
Batter up Guys it's almost Baseball season!
Also thank you to the blogger gods because spell check is working again!

Trivia Rocks!
And imagine if we played trivia in Cleveland...we would of rocked squared!
Well we didn't win at trivia tonight but we did kick ass...
This was a fund raiser for the Peoria jazz All-Stars and it was sooooo much fun! Our table was made up of a great group...We all had something to bring to the table. 10 rounds of 10 questions.
Different categories...Sports...Current Events...Politics...Women at the Oscars...Music...70's Elevator Hell!
Your table could converse and you wrote the answer on the answer sheet...best quote of the night was during the movie quote category and the quote came up. Toby told Tucker what it was and Tucker started to question him and Toby shouts out..."WRITE IT DOWN!"
Serious funnies!
Also thankfully we had some boys for the sports question and for the Geography ( Flags). Oh they were also good at the Acronyms too!
Tucker was our secretary writing down all of the answers on our final answer sheet. For the last category which was Women at the 2007 Oscars...it started by showing you a picture of the actress...listing 3 works she has been in and you had to name her...After the first one...Tucker just handed over the paper to me and I filled them all in...except Jenna Fischer from the Office...I couldn't recognize her but Matt pulled it out of his Ars!
Fun was had by all!
Chowderhead!

More Random Pics!
Ted Lilly signing my glove at the Cubs Caravan!
Geovany Soto signing a ball for me! He walked right past me on his way in and I was like "Geovany" and he looked up and was all "Hey"
Yes I was that close during the Q and A!
Okay so here is my Isabel Bloom angel on the top of my foot. The picture is from the day I got it so it is really swollen and sore and red. The Angel is for my Aunt Neva ( MyGodmother) who has been my guardian angel since she passed. We had this sculpture with flowers put in the annex of my aunts church so all will remember her. This is my memorial so I know she is always with me!
Okay here is the actual picture of the sculpture so you can see how it turned out!

Why I love TV
Okay so I was watching the last Grey's Anatomy the other night and it consisted of Bailey's son injuring himself by pulling a bookshelf down after getting through a baby gate that wasn't locked. No those who know me can testify that I am a pretty laid back mom when it comes to germs and spit ups and others holding him. By all means I am not letting him eat lead paint or crawling on the highway but I just think it's okay to bonk your head and skin your knee. Lets just say that after the episode though...we spent all Sunday putting up a gate and moving bookshelves. I can rest a bit easier now and go to the bathroom without any thoughts of injury!
Also if anyone missed it DKM on David Lettermen on Friday. They played the State of Massachusetts which isn't my favorite song but Hey the DKM are like pizza even when it sux it's still pretty good!
Anyone catch Celebrity Rehab the other night? Seriously too funny! Poor Kenickie!!!

What goes around ...comes around
I would not say I have Pet Peeves...just things that irk me ...which now that I think about it is a Pet Peeve...
People have random different things that drive them crazy...Like Britt would prefer people to use plural s and the 's in the correct fashion. Angie would like others to not kill her while driving and possibly serve her and Rob food and drink without attitude.
Well I realize I am not the "America's Most Smartest Supermodel" by any means but I feel my common sense is on a fairly upper level and I'z ain 't no idiot.
On Real Housewives of the OC last night Laurie is planning her wedding to Multi Millionaire George. When the show first started she was struggling and had to *gasp* work and take care of her 3 kids all by herself. Well now she is getting Mercedes as gifts and going on crazy vacations and her life is totally different. Now for the Pet Peeve...Laurie keeps talking bout how her life has made a complete 360 degree switch. UM Laurie...that means you are right back where you were before...I think you are wanted to say 180 degree turn.
Also did anyone catch American Gladiators the other night? OH the cheese factor! I guess it worked in the 80's...but of course I'll still be watching it cause HELLO...Writer's are still on strike!
I watched 1 vs. 100 last Friday and they did a MEN VS WOMEN version. The women crapped out at 50,000$ because she thought 4 was a prime number instead of 11. then the 21 year old never had a girlfriend self professed loser came on and just won your heart and 1,000,000 $. He actually answered all the questions and knocked out the 100 women. I think he will not have as hard of a time finding a girlfriend now.
What else I'll be watching since the writer's are still outta here...
Survivor Fan Favorites
Big Brother
Rock of Love 2
Celebrity Rehab
LA INK Kat's pregnant?
Just like the writers I am outta here!

Little Boy needs a new pair of shoes!
Well here are the 3 pairs of Vans I got for the little man...He can wear the checkered old skool ones now but the slip on and blue old skool are for next year!
Cool Shoes!
Okay so here are the sweet kicks I picked up for myself in AZ! 2 pair of Vans and these awesome boots! They were normal priced at 150$ but I got them for 45$!
Back Home again...
So I made it to AZ finally on Sunday evening... I had a great time eating and shopping!
Here's the run down...
Sunday night ate at Oregano's.
Monday
I met my friend Brandon and his son Gunnar for some lunch at In-N-Out then went shopping at AZ Mills. Got 2 new pair of Vans for me...and 3 pair of vans for Hank! I'll attached pics of them when I have time. Went to my cousins house for Chinese food that night. After went to friends house to watch the MNF game! Crazy last couple of minutes of that game!
Tuesday
Went to Last Chance and actually found a great pair of boots! Then had an awesome lunch at TeePee Tap Room. I then stopped back at AZ Mills to get a car decal made. It says..."Punk Rock Moms raise Kick Ass Kids". I then went to visit with some friends for the evening and on the way home ate deep fried tacos from Jack in the Box. Now there is a Jack down south a bit on the way to St. Louis but it is about a 2 hour drive there and then 2 back so I don't get to indulge much.
I then had top fly home at 7:40am to Peoria.
Baby hank flew great and I had a great time!
I will post some pics when I get a minute!
gone with the wind!

The Iceman a cometh!
Well my best laid plans were wiped out today by the ICE! I was to leave PIA today to enjoy a quick but fun trip to AZ. I was planning on making a quick but long trip to LA for a day to see some friends too. I seriously had my trip planned down to the minute. AHHH but NO LUCK today!!! I did get to the airport and checked in on the new Allegiant flight to Phoenix. Let me just say I was able to book when the trip cost $89 for the flight there and $13 for the return. Great deal! Back to the Ice story... So Baby Hank and I are there and it doesn't look promising so as I am calling all of my friends to tell them I don't think I am going to make it to PHX as quickly as planned I notice of course my cell phone battery is running low. I quick call my mom and ask her to bring me a charger as I STOOPIDLY pack my in my checked luggage. My mom brings it out and long story short we find out the plane coming to PIA from PHX turned around and went back to PHX so at this point I know I have at least 4 hours until anything is even close to landing. Mom takes the baby and I to her house and an hour later after calling the airline I find out the plane has been delayed until Sunday at 2:40 pm. So off to my home I went. I will try again tomorrow! Some might be pissed or otherwise bitchy. I on the other hand decide to look at the glass half full. I figure 1st I am safe and alive with my child and 2nd I was delayed at home...no harm I get to sleep in my own bed and feed my child and be fresh and ready again tomorrow! The only bummer is my little side trip to LA was cut out but at least they have In-N-Out burgers in AZ now! So I will begin my journey again tomorrow!
Safe Flying for all!
Safe Flying for all!

Imitation is the best form of...
Okay so I am wondering if I am starting to emulate my good ole friend over at Angie's Drama. She just recently ...well a little bit ago...had a little fall down some stairs which resulted in her jaw being wired shut. This event among many makes her the ultimate Drama Queen cause her Drama is for real Girl! Okay back to me...a couple nights ago I am walking down the stairs with the baby and slip down the last 4 stairs. Luckily on my back and the baby just hung out on my chest and no harm but a bit of a bruised butt (don't worry i won't be posting pictures) and some crazy rug burns on my arm. So then tonight I am in a crazy hurry and I am coming to out door to enter the house and I trip up our 2 concrete steps...again with the baby in his carrier luckily I just kinda heavily thumped him down. Now since the weather was so nice today I was waring long shorts and lets just saw I don't have much skin left on my front lower leg and knee. Oh this is going to be a beauty to heal! It is so reminiscent of a long ago war wound on my leg from a crazy bird attack! I might post about that at a later date...y'know when my child is grown and moved away and I actually have bouts of free time!
So here is to you Angie...I hope my couple days of injury sparred you...Maybe it's like that movie Just My Luck. I saw Angie on Thursday and we swapped our drama!
Here's to better daze!

Yeah they know they're cute!
The 2 brothers...Shawn and Hank!
Yeah they know they're cute!And So it Starts...
this is the time of year I love...er loathe...er oh I don't know...
A good chunk of those around me have been complaining about the moving up of the Christmas holiday and although I agree I feel like you either play into it or you don't. I like to enjoy each holiday and with it comes lots of great things...cold nights outside and warm nights inside...all the fun parties...Movies...Y get the idea! It of course starts the beginning of the crap I hate...oops sorry mom ...Things I dislike a really really really lot...The crazy shopping attempts...cleaning off my car and warming it up...the sickness.
Okay boys and girls Lets break it down!
THE GOOD
Cold out warm in...
Is their really anything better than cuddling up inside and trying to warm your ice cold feet on your husbands body? I keep letting him know that it was in our vows to keep each other warm so he has to let me use his body for a heating pad!
PARTY!!!
I think my dance card is already full with Jaycees Christmas parties and the Christmas projects...Potter and Anderson's open house (Actually last night) the chiefs are having a holiday party for season ticket holders...the list goes on!
Movies...
stated in a previous post I love the amount of Xmas movies that come out...if it's the 15th time It's a Wonderful life or Miracle on 34th street is on TV I will usually leave it on...plus all the myriad of Lifetime scroogesque movies...It's pretty good.
Let me go off kilter here for a sec as I just realized something...I think it is just loads of fun to make fun of all the Xmas episode that TV shows do...BUT with the writers strike I wonder if we will have any?!?!?!?
Okay Now for THE BAD!!!
Crazy Shopping!
Do I really need to elaborate?
Cleaning off the car
My husband has been trying to get the garage rearranged enough so my car car be parked in side but if it snows while you are out then you still have to go to all the work ARGH!
Sickness!
The madness as it seems to just get passed around...
Happy Festivas!
