I advanced, you retreated.

Cubs Fan
OPENING DAY!
The Cards proved how much they suck. Life = rock.
What a lovely weekend I had. Thanks Seth. And thanks to Harper, for becoming a tiny Cubs fan. YOU ARE TEH AWESOME!

I need to get more done on Carrier - kinda falling behind. Oof. Too much social life. Went to the Nelson-Atkins on Friday with lovely Dawn Sanders who gave me a fascinating tour - man, that place has SUCH an amazing collection, and this was breathtaking - just spectacular. Also, they have one of my favorite paintings in the whole world - Persephone, by Thomas Hart Benton.
Saturday was… lovely.Got to go back to the Nelson, and walk around the Sculpture Garden at night. Very, VERY pretty.

Now, back to work work work. Illos to do, Carrier to finish, freelance to wrangle. I am still finding time to run almost every day, which is SO GOOD - I take one or both of the dogs, and run around Gillham Park two or three times. The weather is perfect - breezy and cool in the mornings, with maybe a tiny bit of rain. I heart the run.

    Persephone??? Dude, that is one of my favorites, too. You DO have good taste in art, lady.

    I didn’t recall where it hung, now I know.

    Missourian. That’s what you are now. A Missourian.

    Welcome to the club.

    And the Cards are…uh…better than the Rockies! (Decidedly not a sports fan, but honor bound to vaguely mention the home town team.)

    Also, I thought the title of this entry was “I advanced, you retarded.”

    Considering who I was thinking of when I wrote it? Retarded is not too far off.

    Go Team Missouri!
