Tuesday night

I play with an average softball team this fall. It means some people are fantastic and everyone else just doesn't quiet have it. I have to admit, I'm still learning the game, but whatever, I have a great time.

Work is getting to me. I don't mind the work, I do mind the attitude. Very few of these attorney's are socially there. Let's forget about all of that.

After a long day of work, finding out a friend change plans for this weekend, and another loss on the softball field, I went out for drink with the team. Mind you, everyone on this team is 30 +. We have women talking about the sacrafices they have made for their career to justify not having a family, kids, a husband, etc. I respect that. It becomes personal choice, but to justify that with, I have a job I like and a masters, I really wonder how happy you are. The men as well. The most successful of the group, J, looked younger, had a great job, but spent most of the time talking on the phone with some girl he was dating and got so drunk, he started throwin knives around...including one towards our waitress (who was obviously uncomfortbale with it all). Now J is the top manger of the properties in the aread, including the property of the restuarant we were drinking at so the owner was really nice, and bought us Cabo shot, etc. and did not say shit to J. Is that what I want?

I found out another guy who was married to his wife for 19 years is currently going through a divorce. ( he if in his 60s). I found out one chick of 40 is having trouble meeting people on e-harmony. Another chick wants to let off a guy easily by telling him that she is a flirt and he couldn't handle her. They are all cool people, I just didn't get it. They all had stories of horrible early marriages and bad career decisions.

My mood only got worse especially with the red sox lost (14-2). and more worse when I got on the metro. It was packed at 10pm and people were just down right pushy. Show a little courtesy, and don't push me cause I'll push back. And those backpacks, just take them off please, so I don't have to rip them off. { well all that was my mood}

a couple walk on with an infant of a small crying baby girl. I roll my eyes thinking this is it. I am going to die. But the baby looked up at me with her big blue eyes and stopped crying. I waved, she smiled and laughed. I waved again and she waved back. She ducked her head around to catch my face, I told her mom and dad, "she's a beautful, baby." The dad said, "thank you," but you could tell he knew and was proud. That little baby made my day... even after one like this.
