Humans are creatures of habit. I am a human, therefore I am a creature of habit.
Chris and I quickly develop our routines in my time here. Everyday, at 1 pm we head on down to Fitness First for an air conditioned workout.
After lifting a few weights I settle onto the cardio equipment in front of 8 TVs. This is my little version of workout heaven. Boring equipment but with my headphones and 8 channels to browse through…it carries the boredom away. Since it is summer, cricket is on almost all the time. Frickin’ brillant I say.
Yesterday when Chris and I were eliptical biking, we were watchin Oz struggle past 200 in a one day international versus Zimbabwe. Zimbabwe are not even near the top team in the world and it looked like Oz could be in trouble.
We were wrong, bigtime. Australia won by 99 runs. What were we worried about?
Sunday Chris and I go to India versus Australia in One Day Cricket at the ‘Gabba. Can’t wait.

Yes I am, Sophie…maybe it’s too late cuz I do enjoy watching snooker when it’s on (maybe once per year) - darts I can pass on. Help me…(I leave for gym in 1.5 hours for more cricket and working out!)
Australia v India in a day/night game should be awesome. Great batsmen and bowlers on both sides should mean plenty of wickets going down in between the ball getting smacked all over the show. Enjoy it.
Sean: repeat after me: Ryne-o, The Hawk, Shawon, Mark Grace, (heck do you even *remember* Doug Dacenczo?)
We’re losing you, man.
Once a Cub fan and Bud fan, always…
Your cubby buddy,

I remember Doug Dacenczo…little bugger that he was. I will be going to a few Cubs games this summer in Chicago - let me know if you are near by and want tickets. Should be a good laugh. Funny on that search btw.
Do you remember the game that he played all 9 positions? The Cubs were getting shellacked by about 15 runs (cricket fans — that’s an insurmountable lead) in the 2nd or 3rd after they were eliminated from the playoffs (probably BEFORE the all-star break) and Zimmer had a little fun. Unfortunately for Dougie he wrecked his shoulder pitching and went on the DL for several weeks.
BTW, thanks for the offer on tickets, but I HOPE I’m nowhere near Chicago this summer!

Sean, you’re addicted!! There is still time to return to the light you know, otherwise you might start enjoying golf, snooker, darts, or other paint-drying variety sports *lol*
