- For the first time in a while, I feel okay.  Apparently, the allergies got me so sick, I got both a sinus and bronchial infection, so now I’m on two different medications to keep me in decent health.  However, I will say that the combination of the meds is apparently making me a little loopy, which highly amused my date last night. 
- I was thoroughly convinced that the plans I’d made with Eve were for Sunday morning, and I was looking forward to a leisurely Saturday morning before running some errands.  So imagine my surprise Saturday morning when I was halfway through last week’s episode of Reaper and my phone rang — it was Eve, asking me which apartment number I was in, since the thing we were going to was on Saturday, not Sunday.  I hadn’t even brushed my teeth yet.  I’m still shocked that I managed to go from being parked at the jetway to full-throttle takeoff in 15 minutes. 
- I’m heading to New York for business next month, and apparently my subconscious is already obsessing about it, since I dreamed last night about racing to the airport only to realize I hadn’t actually bought an airline ticket.  Then again, in realtime, I haven’t booked a flight or a hotel yet.  But there is one part I’m really looking forward to — I haven’t been back to my old hometown in 6 years, so I plan on staying an extra day, renting a car and driving up to Connecticut to see my old neighborhood.  It’ll be extremely strange going back there, especially since I won’t be able to go inside the house I grew up in.
- Next Sunday, I’m seeing the Red Sox again, but this time, they’re here in L.A. playing the Dodgers.  It still feels a little surreal when I think about the fact that I am one of less than 100,000 people on the planet who’s been present for a Red Sox World Series victory.  That’s something to tell the grandkids about.
- Yes, I’m still a little upset that CBS cancelled Jericho again.  Yes, I know it’s just a TV show.  But it was really well-written and well-done, and it was a hell of a lot better than most of the crap out there on TV right now.  That said, I have broken my no-reality-TV rule over the past few weeks to watch an old college friend on Here Come the Newlyweds on ABC.
