JOSH.
That is all.
Howdy, all!
Please let that sick 0.45 ERA against Atlanta continue tonight.
Worried about Mikey’s hip, Youk’s falling average, Ells’ elbow, Tek’s neck…
@Texy: Oh! Well then, never mind.
@Mac: I’m gonna work on the encyclopedia this weekend. Seamus today posted “Daisucky”, which goes on the list.
@fc: I’m going to drink copious amounts of alcohol tonight. It’s gonna be awesome.
@Texy: Ahah, that should definitely go on the list.
@Texy: Absolut. -ely.
All the things that might make me worry about our dear ol’ Red Sox…not gonna worry about them right now. Instead, I am just gonna sit down and enjoy all that is Joshua Patrick Beckett and his awesomeness.
Bring it Becks!!!
Commander Kick Ass will bring it tonight.
I love my kidlet…but her idea of fun for Mom tonight is to drive her across town during Friday rush hour traffic to the mall at 4, pick her up at 7 (and cook dinner in between), drive to a friend’s house to pick up said friend, then drive them to the movies, then pick them up. Soooooo not happening after this insane week.
@fc: Mikey’s hip worries me the most. Ells will be fine (but you never like to hear “elbow”).
@jules: I’m not actually worried about Jacoby. I just wanted an ecuse to say “Ells’ elbow.” Ditto “Tek’s neck” – which could be the name of my second band after Jon’s Left Ear” breaks up, Behind-the-Music style. Skol!
@jules: I’m not worried about Lowell’s hip until after he gets the injection and see how he does. They did say his tightness would be normal….so, if that is the case….and the doctors aren’t saying he has reinjured it, then I am willing to go along that ride.
91 degrees at 7:30? Nasty.
Jair Jurrjens sounds like a Star Wars character.
@jules: This is why I don’t have/want kids.
@fc: I think it might be. One of the weird looking creatures in Mos Eisley Cantina.
Thanks Canada….much appreciated!
OH HAI JOSH.
@Texy: Jair Jurrjens, a patron at the Cantina. Along with Bea Arthur, of course.
@Texy: @Texy: She’s great, but a little clueless about how long it takes to drive across town on a Friday afternoon. “It’s 10 minutes away…” ha. Times 4 or 5.
1-2-3!
Come on bats!
How annoyed am I that the reason I can no longer watch baseball at work is because of the $&#@U$(#UIO# Geico commercial. Why am I paying $90/season to watch commercials anyway?
@Mac: Drinkin’ the blue milk.
Apropos of nothing…but I was looking on the Williams-Sonoma site for ideas of spending a gift certificate. THIS looks wicked (but I’ll make it instead of buying it.
@Texy: Of course.
@jules: I think you mean it looks wicked good.
Prosit!
@fc: No doubt. I just might have to surprise my hubby with cherry pie this weekend. It’s time for dinner…a pizza run is happening soon.
@jules: That looks gorgeous.
For anyone who can bake, Bakerella and Bake It Pretty are phenomenal websites.
@jules: Oh, wow, that looks hella delicious.
FAILCOEUR!
BecKett. Whoo hoo. Want more.
@shelley1005: IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. (and I think you do)
@Texy: I am a baker…pretty good if I don’t say so myself…have to check out those sites. Of course, I rarely bake in the summer…too hot to fire up the oven.
@Texy: I am picking up what you are putting down my friend…
Daisucky ? Nice.
Oh and Josh Beckett to hit ? I wanna see that again.
Star Wars Cantina Guy needs to go away.
@Texy: Thanks for the links! I love to bake and will check them out. I’ll bake in the summer–just crank up the ac
Beckett batting!
Josh’s batting stance is non-existant. He kind of just stands there.
@Texy: Yes he does (and LOL on the cantina reference)
Seriously. GO AWAY CANTINA GUY.
UGH…the chant from hell.
@Texy: Cantina Guy does need to go away. i don’t like him.
Papi with the grab!
Yeah, so FYI.. I back tonight. Last night we hit an MLL game at Harvard Stadium.
@Kimd: MLL? Major League… Lacrosse? Lightsabers? Longjump?
Oops.
McLouth butt? Meet Beckett fastball.
@Texy: Lacrosse but I like the other 2 better. It sometimes looks like they are hacking with lightsabers. Boston Cannons home field is at Harvard.
You’re allowed to wear a necklace with a chain and pendant that hangs down almost to your belt buckle? Really?
@Texy: Massively Loquacious Lightsabers
Its off-topic here, but did you guys know that AJ Burnett is being paid a higher annual salary than Pujols ?
