Apropos of Nothing

Yes, that title is correct. Yours truly and Pops are going to Game 5 of the World Series tonight!! One of my bosses at work came up to me today after seeing my Phillies t-shirt and wanted to tell me that she and her husband attended Game 5 on Monday night. We quickly chatted up about it before my brain started to wonder. Well... game 5 isn't over. Are they going back to finish the game at Citizen Bank Park. She informed me that she as busy and they could not attend the finish of the game. WHAT?! Too busy for the World Series?! Well, then who is going instead?? Apparently no one.

My hand surgeon informed me that my thumb healed very well, but I was not in the clear yet.

I was just in a cast for 6 weeks. But it got better. He also said I needed physical therapy for roughly 4 weeks. Great. Anything else to ruin me a little more? Oh yeah, and no Ultimate Frisbee or lifting for at least 5 weeks. WHA...
