There's no place like home...I still love you, Rockies!

While the entirety of Boston is celebrating tonight after the Red Sox's sweeping victory over the Colorado Rockies, RJG feels bittersweet about the whole thing. Being a devoted Rockies fan, through the good and the bad (up until this past year, it's been primarily the latter), it's sad to watch the Rockies get all the way to their first ever World Series and let the BoSox trounce them like they did. On the other hand, the Rockies making it to the World Series is an accomplishment to celebrate, regardless of the outcome of any of the last 4 depressing games.

RJG has stayed up MUCH too late watching the game this evening, only to go to bed feeling very somber. Despite wearing BOTH Rockies baseball hats (mine & my hubby's), RJG was not able to bring enough luck-from-afar to assist the Rockies in making the 2 more runs that they needed to bring about a 5th game (i.e. another chance) to prove themselves to all the East Coast snobs who seem to think that only 2 teams really matter (you know which ones I'm talking about).

RJG wishes to send out a message to her beloved Rockies:

YOU'LL ALWAYS BE WINNERS TO ME!!!!

First Day on the Job

This blog is a long time in the making. I've always enjoyed blogs, especially during those down times during the work day when I've already checked my email about 5 times and I don't even have new junk mail to delete, then checked for new Britney Spears gossip only to discover that there isn't any, then finally, out of desperation, tried to do an online crossword puzzle but got so frustrated about having to ask for help with every letter that I ultimately gave up.

To be quite honest, I never thought I had anything interesting enough to post on the web for other people to spend their down-time reading. Granted, some might argue that working in the mental health field would yield some pretty interesting stories. But who really wants to hear about all the nutty people I encounter day in and day out. Anyone who takes the subway in Manhattan could easily have as many stories to tell.

But, truth be told, if I can make even one person laugh with my (hopefully) darkly, sarcastically humorous blog entries, then I will have done what I set out to do. But be forewarened, there will be a lot of discussion about nutty folks, cats (because I have 2 of the most adorable ones in the world), the entertainment world (Britney gossip isn't the only gossip I keep up with), and who knows what else. There's not much going on in New Jersey, so I have PLENTY of time to write...until next time...
