I miss weekends...

I miss weekends where you can just hang out with those you care about. My mind has checked out for good. It's only focused on having fun.

Anyway, I opened my package to find Dangles. He's like a little baby! He's smooth and cute. I love him. He's just as cute as my piggy I bought.

What do I do when I get home? I check eBay of course! I saw some interesting items. Of course it has to do with monkeys. Here are some items I found interesting:

Final price with shipping: $36.95

Horoscope: Every day needn't be a breeze. It's the tough ones that teach you the most. When you have something to say, holding it in just isn't your style -- even if it's something intense, potent and life-changing -- like what you have to say to someone right now.

DANGLES!

I received Dangles yesterday. I am so happy! I woke up early today wishing that I was somewhere else. Escape is what I just want to do. I mean just disappear and don't ever want to be found again. Either alone or with someone. I know that sounds insane, but that's my brain right now.

I did some laundry today and I hope that it'll last me a while. It also as hit me that I am just too into monkeys. Someone has to stop me OR I could just have a wish list of what I want and have my cousins get it for me for Christmas. I do need to get gifts for all of my cousins. I wonder what everyone wants. It'll be hard for the teenagers, but the others it shouldn't be that bad.

The Simpsons and Family Guy weren't bad. American Dad was a little too much. The gun thing was just strange. The Simpsons showed me that Lisa can be a rebel and that she just wants to be accepted.

I watched the news to find out that Steve Young got his Hall of Fame ring. That's great and he looked like he would cry. Congrats to you.

Horoscope: Innovation can be intimidating, but be brave. These new ideas will enrich you. You've never been fond of people who don't take their responsibilities seriously. If there's someone who answers that description in your life -- well, they won't be there for long.

Baseball As America...

Was an interesting exhibit in Oakland. If you ever wondered what kind of equipment they invented for he game then I'd recommend you going there. It started off with both local teams the Giants and the Athletics. Of course, the sore spot has to be the 1989 World Series trophy. I had never seen one before in person and the only ones I have seen are on TV. You know like when they give away the Super Bowl one and there's always the question: "(Name of person and name of team) You have just won the Super Bowl, what are you going to do next?"

I thought about changing the trophy to have it say Giants on it, but then thought better. The item I think I want was maybe some Omar Vizquel salsa. I swear it's real! I'm trying to land some from the Cleveland fans. I saw other items, but this really stood out. I liked how there was a letter that was really touching sent to Hank Aaron when he broke the record by Babe Ruth. The letter was really touching. It was from a guy who explained how he couldn't have children and when he did he named the son after Hank Aaron. That almost brought me to tears. Just thinking about the letter now makes me want to cry. I saw Jackie Robinson's Dodger jersey. It was like looking at a piece of history.

I also saw the scouting report for Mark McGuire. The funny part was they had the sign to hide his weaknesses, but it showed all of his strengths. He was drafted right out of high school. I hope I have the right person. I also saw the different types of season tickets they had in the past. Some were charms and that isn't a bad idea. I mean if they had that now it would be easier on the ticket takers. I think that it would be hard to tell which ticket is fake or not.

I saw pictures from the Battle of the Bay and different ads that showed that San Francisco wanted a baseball team. They had the San Francisco Seals jersey and it was super sweet looking. I saw the world's most expensive baseball card. See the card here. I saw a Mickey Mantle card. There was so much information there that I just soaked up like a sponge. There were pieces from movies and food that players endorsed. I mean all that information was great.

The cap that Juan Marichal and Gaylord Perry for their milestones and even an autograph Barry Bonds baseball #597. There was just so much there. The old seats from some of the ball parks that aren't there anymore. The demo of how to throw a knuckle ball, curve ball, fastball, and sinker? I'm not sure about the last one, but they have the first three for sure. You could also see the different bats and how they evolved. If you can go check out the exhibit I would suggest you do it. It's Cooperstown but closer.

Oh the neatest thing that I saw today was this:
Here are some pictures I found online of the exhibit. Pictures were NOT ALLOWED:






Horoscope: You've got some hot stuff on your plate right now -- deal with it quickly. Balancing the needs of a personal relationship with your work duties isn't usually as stressful for you as it is for the rest of us; you're good at it.

Good bye Scottie Hottie...

Good bye Mr. Eyre. You made it. You were one of the two Scotts on the team that we loved. I'll miss you. You were laid back and nice. I'm glad I got to meet you at the picnic. You have made this past season a joy to watch. Even though we didn't do so well, you were the light that guided us until the end.

We will miss you greatly. I enjoyed your song at the park. It made me remember my roots in rock music. It bring tears to my eyes right now thinking you'll no longer be a Giant, but that you're a Cub now. You were a Giant with a "Giant" heart. I'm sorry we let you get away, but we understand that your boys mean a lot to you. Good luck in the windy city and if you see A.J. there don't forget to give him a kick in the ASS if he's pompous to you about the World Series.

Scottie Hottie...I bid you farewell and godspeed. (No I'm not religious.)

Horoscope: Whittle down some of your responsibilities and free up some time for a recharge. Is friendship really all there is between you and that certain someone you've known for what seems like forever? If you're not sure, investigating the options now wouldn't be a bad idea.

Eyre rewarded by Cubs for resilience

Lefty battled disorder to earn valuable free agent deal

CHICAGO -- One of the first things Scott Eyre did when he knew he was going to the Chicago Cubs was to check the team's 2006 schedule. Eyre wanted to know when he'd be back in San Francisco because he doesn't want to let the kids down at Charles Armstrong School.

They can expect a visit in May.

In May 2002, Eyre began taking medication for attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD). He didn't know he had it until the previous month, when Tim Hughes of the Toronto Blue Jays medical staff suggested Eyre talk to someone about it during an off day in Tampa, Fla. Eyre never thought he had a problem.

"No, I was just me," he said Friday at Wrigley Field, where he was introduced as the newest member of the Cubs' bullpen.

The free agent reliever signed a two-year contract with the Cubs on Thursday night that includes a player option for a third year. If the option is picked up, the total package is worth $11 million. The deal includes a $1 million signing bonus, and will pay Eyre $2.7 million in 2006 and $3.5 million in 2007. The player option year in 2008 is for $3.8 million.

Eyre wouldn't be such a valuable commodity if he hadn't been diagnosed and learned how to deal with ADHD.

"There were little things, like someone tapping on the back of your chair, that would drive me nuts," Eyre said. "Now it doesn't bother me at all. Nothing bothers me. I drive, listen to the radio, listen to my wife talking and the kids do what they would do. I was lot grumpier, I guess, as my wife describes it. Now I'm a lot more happy."

He's also a better pitcher. From 1997-2001, before he was diagnosed, Eyre had a career 5.50 ERA, giving up 139 earned runs in 227 1/3 innings over 95 games. From 2002-05, he gave up 102 earned runs over 252 2/3 innings in 313 games for a 3.63 ERA.

"You get critics who say, 'You grew up as a pitcher,'" Eyre said. "I'm sorry, but you don't get your ERA two points different in three years or whatever by learning. It doesn't happen like that."

And that's part of the message he delivers to kids who also are struggling to deal with ADHD or attention deficit disorder (ADD). The difference? As Eyre talked on Friday, he was constantly moving his hands. He's a little hyper.

"In San Fran, I've had numerous kids or parents who say they take this [medication] now because of you," Eyre said. "One kid's dad said, 'He doesn't want to take [the medication] because the kids make fun of him.' I looked at [the kid] and said, 'How do your friends know you take it?' and he said, 'I told them.' I said, 'Tell them you don't take it any more, and take it at home and they'll never know.'"

Eyre wants students to know they aren't alone, and he'll reiterate that message when he sees the kids at Charles Armstrong School in Belmont, Calif. The Cubs will be in town to play the Giants May 9-11, 2006.

"I made them a promise that if I wasn't a Giant next year that I would still come back and visit them, so I have to go back and visit in May," Eyre said. "I already looked at the schedule to see when we're in San Fran."

Eyre is willing to talk to children in the Chicago area as well.

"[The kids] didn't care if I wasn't Barry Bonds or Jason Schmidt," Eyre said. "They cared that I played in the big leagues and I had ADD or ADHD, and that I made it to where I was. That's rewarding to me to see a kid smile like that."

The Cubs are smiling now that Eyre is part of the relief corps. His agent, Tommy Tanzer, said every Major League team called to inquire about the left-handed reliever.

"I was getting headaches every day from the stress," Eyre said. "How do I pick a place to play without knowing what the clubhouse was like?"

The good-natured lefty, who will be a perfect complement to Chicago closer Ryan Dempster, played for Cubs manager Dusty Baker when the Giants plucked Eyre off the waiver wire in August 2002. He helped San Francisco reach the World Series that year.

Eyre talked to Baker and also got good vibes from conversations with new teammates Glendon Rusch, Jerome Williams and Neifi Perez. Rusch told him about a team dinner the last weekend at a Houston steakhouse that all but one player attended, and that player missed it because he was sick.

About a week ago, Eyre checked in with Baker again.

"All he said is, 'Did you sign yet? We're going fishing,'" Eyre said. "I've got a nice fishing partner."

The lefty decided to leave the Giants because it was just too long a commute to his Bradenton, Fla., home. Twice this year, he left San Francisco after a Sunday day game, flew to Florida, spent the Monday off-day playing with his two sons, ages 7 and 5, then flew to Arizona to rejoin the Giants. The Eyres have a seven-acre spread in Florida that is home to two horses, three dogs, two cats and a turtle.

"I love my wife and kids very much and this is closer to home," he said of Chicago. "They have a good team, and [Cubs general manager Jim] Hendry made it almost impossible to say no. The negotiations were 45 minutes long. We had dinner, I walked out in my Greg Maddux autographed jersey and said, 'How do I look?'"

Eyre had gotten Maddux to sign a jersey this summer, not knowing he'd be the right-hander's teammate a few months later.

Eyre gave the Giants credit for his success.

"Felipe [Alou] showed a lot of faith in me," said Eyre, who led the National League in appearances. "I'd have a bad game or give up an inherited run or something, and it didn't matter what I did on Monday, I was pitching Tuesday. I was the go-to guy. That instilled confidence in myself. I hope I can do the same thing here in Chicago."

Fumbles the Monkey...

Today I received Fumbles in the mail. He's one of my latest additions to my monkey collection. He's small and cute and is fresh in his ziplock bag.
Through the jungle, high and low
Up and down and around I go
Look at me swing from tree to tree
Won't you come and play with me ?

SOX...

No not the Red Sox or the White Sox. I'm talking about regular socks that go on your feet. I went shopping today knowing that a certain store has sales on Wednesdays. I went and I saw items I had to have. OK not had to have, but needed. By the title of the post it was socks. I looked at the prices for girl socks and women's and they were the same. When I looked at the prices for boys they were cheaper. HOW COME?! WHY?!

Long story short I ended up with boy socks. Who's going to know what's on my feet? If they are boy socks or girl socks or even women's' socks? One entry about socks. What am I thinking? Or am I at all?

Horoscope: If you feel like you're attracting flighty people, take a break from socializing. Being critical of your own or your coworkers' performance at work won't get you anywhere. Sure, you expect perfection, but that's not always possible. Don't blame anyone if things don't work out.

Heartbreaker Part 2...

As I was sitting at home thinking about baseball (it's the off season and I didn't count down the days until opening day) I thought about my hubby. There's fantasy and reality. Reality is that he's married with a son. He's been married for two or three years. He grew up in the Midwest and so he's a good guy. If he did try anything I'd be flattered, but offended at the same time. I'm sure he's a nice guy and that's why he has a wife and they have a son together.

I'm happy with what I have and what I don't have. Life is good. People to hang out with on weekends and those that care about me. Baseball is only half a year long. Friends are all year long. I have the orange madness to keep my company and the monkey thing. Sure I look like a crazy person with a thing for monkeys.

In the end it's best the he's married and he's just my crush. It's like all the teenage girls out there back in the 90s when Leonardo DiCaprio was "god" to them. I think I'm like that too with baseball players. To me they have a job and you have to respect their privacy. Baseball players, football players, movie stars, musicians, and just regular TV personal should have a star quality. They are "larger" than life, and what they do is their business.

I'm just rambling now I wish Jack the best and hope he's happy and his son is healthy. I hope he loves his wife enough to not feel the need to cheat. I'll just have a fantasy where Jack is my husband. I'll have reality where there is someone for me. I'm thankful for reality and not fantasy.

More monkeys!

My latest monkey! I just won the auction for him today. His name is Dangles. He's a pluffy! He's smooth and soft and lovable. He's as cute as my pig one. His name is Corkscrew. He's soft too.

I have this thing for beanie babies now. The crazy is long gone, but mine has only just begun. I'm pretty sure this thing with beanie babies will only get a little worse until I get all the monkeys.

MONKEYS RULE!

Horoscope: Sharing news of your day means nothing unless you share your feelings about it too. You'd never admit it, but you tend to be superstitious, especially about sharing secrets. At this point, you need to spill the beans, and do it now -- maybe even twice.

You know it's almost Christmas when...

you see Home Alone on TV. I mean come on. Only for the past 10 years or so it's been on around Thanksgiving. This year they started early. They always have the first one on TV. Then it was the second Lost in New York. I thought about watching other things, but it's not the same.

I checked my football hobby of just picking out winners and seeing which week I did really well. It's only to pass the off season, but I don't follow football to know or even care.

Horoscope: If the timing doesn't feel right, postpone. Give yourself some time to prepare. You've been thinking about asking a family member for advice, but you're not sure they're the right person to approach. Once you ask, though, you might be surprised to find that they can help more than you'd imagined.

Heartbreaker...

My hubby is married! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Here's how I know. This is the information that I found:
Jack Gerard Taschner...graduated from Racine (WI) High School...drafted by Anaheim in 37th round of 1996 First-Year Player draft, but did not sign...earned communications degree from University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh...was perfect 13-0 over 3 seasons with Titans, helping school to trio of WIAC titles...fashioned 7-0 mark with 1.51 ERA and 79 strikeouts over 53.2 innings in 1999...married (Miriam)...son (Gradin, Aug. 16, 2003).

I'm heartbroken, but it wouldn't have worked out. He's who he is and I'm who I am. It's just nice to know that he's married and happy. If he's not he can always find me. ^_^

I know that's wishful thinking, but you never know. I saw Fever Pitch and Bull Durham tonight. Bull Durham was ok. I learned a lot from that movie. I learned how to be a "home team ho" as some of us have given that term to those that show "the goods" to the home players for attention.

Fever Pitch was ok. I could relate to Jimmy Fallon's character because I'm that die hard fan. If the Giants were like that then I'm sure that I could go to those extremes. I could see myself getting a lot of Giants gear and just having a room or the house decorated to the extreme. I'm seriously thinking about painting my room orange. That sounds nutty, but it's something different.

Monkeys!

You see those three lovely monkeys? They're MINE! I bought them and I'm taking them home today. I know I'm crazy, but this is my way of dealing with the off season. I find monkeys that are cute to add to my collection. I know someone someday will have me locked up and committed to some institution. **NOTE** That picture was not taken at my house, but it's the one that was provided when I bought those three monkeys.

I am going to have to have a monkey shrine set up in my room now. I have to find the one I bought in Spain a couple of years ago. It was so cute and I had to leave with a monkey. Here is that post. The picture that is on the left is a picture of what the monkeys did in Gibraltar. It was strange being in two countries at once. It was Spain, but then it was also England as well. I do miss those monkeys over there. I wonder what happen to my camera that I used to take pictures of me and one of the monkeys. GOD DAMN IT! I want my monkey pictures! I want back the camera and the picture of the monkey eating food! SHIT! I miss monkey!!!

Horoscope: You do not have to sacrifice family for career. Keep your priorities where they are. A family member you haven't seen or spoken to in what seems like forever is about to contact you, and one conversation will be enough to convince you that you're overdue for a visit. So will you be traveling, or will they?

My Monkey hobby...

Today I received a package in the mail. Actually there were two, but I was only able to receive one and the other I'll have to pick up on Saturday. I'll just say there are monkeys in at the post office waiting for me. See the picture? That's what I bought recently. The monkey madness continues. I have a nice pair of capris with about the same color pink. I have matching socks now and all I need is a similar colored shirt. I do have a brown monkey shirt that says "monkey see monkey do" and the writing is in pink. It'll all match and I'll wear them. I'll wear it on National Monkey Day. No I'm not kidding about this. Check out the site here.

I also went downstairs to check out the color of the basement room and it's ORANGE! OMG! It's perfect for the "orangest monkey"! I'll have to see if there's any paint left and paint my room orange. Dear God I think I've lost my mind. The orangest monkey shall be me?!

Lightning strikes twice?

It was after work and I was standing at the corner waiting for a ride home. I notices these flashes of light and thought maybe it was the cable where the buses run, but then thought better when I saw some more. I thought back to when I was younger (elementary school) and saw a bunch when I was on my way to school. I only wish I had a camera when I was that young. I love seeing lightning. I know it's dangerous, but it's different and unique.

On the drive home there were a couple more times when the lightning hit. The only reason why I knew was because the radio had a little bad reception. I saw some and wonder how much more there would be. If I could just stare at that a lot I would.

I miss the simple days where I could just hang out and just stare at the sky. Looking up at the clouds trying to find people and animals. I like taking pictures of clouds too. Sounds silly, but that's something fun to do. Take picture of clouds.

Horoscope: You're still feeling exhilarated and enthusiastic when it comes to spending money, but you really need to be careful about it -- and this isn't something anyone ordinarily needs to tell you. Your smart attitude about money qualifies you to give friends some wise advice.

Happy Halloween!

What did I do today? I wanted to wear my Taschner jersey to work because of the holiday, but then thought better of it. I wore an orange shirt and then black pants. I have no imagination.

I got home and then had someone message me seeing if I wanted to go out. I said why not. I wanted to go trick or treating. I wore my Taschner jersey and the matching cap. I put on "eye black", but then figured I look stupid so I took it off. We left my house and started the search for Robin Williams house.

I found out where Robin Williams lives and it was strange. I mean it was hard to find in the dark and this was after we roamed around the neighborhood. He had a couple of guys at his front gate and it looked kind of scary to approach him or them to get something from him. There was this one guy has a cool set up. He has two houses together, well they're separated by a driveway. It has a wonderful view of the Golden Gate Bridge. I also noticed a lot of Russians trick or treating.

After finding his house and bored we tried to head over to the Castro. We get back to the car and it won't start. This is not a joke. We try and we even got someone to help jump it. It wasn't working. We're stuck trying and calling people.

We finally get AAA there and the guy is tried and he's not happy at how crazy some people are. He tried to start the car, but he said it was the starter. It was strange. I know I tried to start the car hoping a miracle, but when he couldn't even fix the car that was bad.

Long story short, we got the car towed back to the house and I got a ride home. By the time I got home it was 10 minutes to midnight. I can honestly say that it is one Halloween I'll never forget.

Horoscope: Authority problems don't discourage you -- they inspire you to find your own way. What you're standing there staring at might be the perfect gift for your sweetie, so whether or not there's a 'good' reason for buying it really shouldn't enter into the equation. If it makes them happy, that's enough. Right?

A clean room and organized as well...

I had enough with being messy and seeing as my room was pretty messy, I figured I had to clean up. It's winter and the ants are going to be coming in when the rain starts. I vacuumed and I also did a load of laundry. WOW right? My desk is neat and the floor is clean. I boxed up the magazines that were sitting on my floor. I also finally got around to paying off that parking ticket that I got about half a month ago. I can't believe I got it on Yom Kippur. Ironic.

I watched "The Goonies" and wondered where they all are now. Great movie and I should get it on DVD too. It's amazing how much dust stuff can get on it when it's not cleaned for a year or more. I also should finish getting the rest of the seasons of "Friends".

Meanwhile, back in "Giants land" there isn't anything interesting going on except they want to rename the park. If the logo is blue and white I'm sure most of us fans will have a cow.

I will try to put something baseball related in each day. That'll be my motivation to update this. This shall keep me sane from the off season. I made this skin for the blog. OK, I didn't. I just took what I had and changed the picture to the monkey. I have to make him more orange though. Not quite enough.

Horoscope: To stay sharp, keep challenging yourself -- so pick a tough goal and get to work! Obviously, someone 'upstairs' is testing your patience, because everyone who's crossing your path down here is arriving with information that's either totally confusing or totally inaccurate. Either way, don't sign anything -- not even a large check. The stars are serious.

Jerseys!

OMG I got the ones I ordered a couple weeks ago. They're so SWEET! I have one of my "hubby" and one that's just blank. It looks good, but it's the wrong number, but I'll ask him to "fix it". Heh. He'll be like..are you the same girl that asked me to edit the number on her hat? I'll be like yes I did. And here's the hat. It'll be funny.

I am still trying to track down my Giants blanket. It's around somewhere. I wish I had it. It'll keep me nice and warm. The jerseys I got go nicely with my hat. I haven't calculated the record for it yet, but it can't be that bad. I realize now I have four (4) jerserys. Lord that is a lot. This year alone I've bought three (3). Someone tell me those are ok to wear to work on Fridays. Please?

Horoscope: Money matters could provide you with one more bit of confusing information to deal with, but don't get yourself all worked up about it. You've got some thinking to do, and you're not ready to come to a decision just yet.

ML31 on the Giants MB (message board)...

This guy is BORING! He bores me with his there isn't such a thing called a "Wild Card" in baseball. If you don't win your division then you don't deserve to go to the World Series. This is how he views the 2002 World Series. No team went. He said the AL (American League) and the NL (National League) that went (Giants and Angels) never happened.

This year the Astros and the White Sox went. In his eyes only the White Sox deserved it and they are the true winners. If the Astros won they didn't deserve it.

Why can't you just accept it? Lord. Get a life and just accept that that's the rules of the game. He also doesn't like the DH (Designated Hitter) for the AL but that's the rule.

ML31, just stop trying to convert others. Just let us follow our "religion" and you can follow yours.

Horoscope: To make sure it goes as planned, do your research. Check the facts and play it safe.

Headaches aren't good signs...

I woke up this morning, ok not morning, but afternoon with a headache. I knew that wasn't a good sign. The last time this happened I knew the result. I ended up watching a movie. After it was done it was time for the World Series. Yes I did watch it. I wanted to see a team choke, but they didn't. I saw a strange stolen base by A.J. The Astros looked decent, but they couldn't get a lot of the plays and some cost them when the ball was hit into a gap.

I saw the results of the game and it bummed me out. Tomorrow's another day and there's another game. Six games left. I will watch all of them. Even if I have to go to a bar to watch game 6 at a bar.

Horoscope: Pay attention to the issues at hand ... don't dwell on what may happen later.
Okay. Enough is enough. You've worked, helped out and done everything you possibly can for everyone you possibly can. Now it's time to do what you want to do: Be completely alone with your special someone. And that's that.
