Communication, a telephonic invasion

Oh sweet bliss. I have witnessed another Chicago Cubs victory. My first time in New Busch Stadium, sitting in the bleachers, surrounded by Saint Louis Cardinal fans, and I saw Greg Maddux pitch a hell of a game. The Cardinals did not sweep the Cubs. It wasn't going to happen because I was present. I'm continuing my new streak of not seeing the Cubs lose. It is wonderful. It would have been better if I didn't have to pay 7 bucks for a bottle of Budweiser or 7.50 for a draft of Bud Select. Man oh man, that's mucho dinero for un cerveza. We made great time coming back too. I got to my car at Josh's at 5pm. Unfortunatly I would have preferred to have a few drinks in Saint Louis to celebrate the Chicago Cubs victory but alas my ride was heading back and I didn't want to hassle with finding other means home even if it was an option.

I love opening up my email inbox and finding this...
