Ease My Broken Heart

This weekend was full of euphoric excitement and gut wrenching disappointment. Not only did both of these emotions come into play on the same weekend, they both happened on Sunday. First I need to mention that I had dinner at Giovanni’s on Brady St. and the meal was ok. I had the Sicilian stuffed tenderloin. The prices there are a little steep but I found out why the hard way. If you go there you really don’t need to order an appetizer because the dinners come with a large soup or salad. That combined with the good bread led to me taking some of my tenderloin home, and those of you who know me know I don’t take food home. Some good eats at G’s.

On Sunday I had to get up early because I had to go with J to Oconomowoc for her masters swim meet. The meet lasted about five hours and J tore it up. She took first place in all of her individual events and broke the state masters record in the 100 yd. freestyle. That was my excitement for the day because it was great to see her kick some serious booty. After the meet we went to the Delafield Brewhaus, another great place to eat. Then the day took a serious turn for the worse. I had to rush home to see the Packers v. Eagles game. I really don’t even need to describe why the day took a turn for the worse. It can be summed up in 4th and 26, come on! Disappointing. There’s my Sunday journey from excitement (good job J), to disgust (damn you Packers)!

Hello, Old Man Winter?

Where’s the snow?!? To start I have to say that I am mighty jealous that the East has gotten two feet of snow and we haven’t even had a dusting to this point. Old man winter better kick it in gear.

The big news this week is that my cousin got traded from the D’backs to our hometown Brewers. It’s pretty exciting and this should lead to me going to a record amount of games this coming year. I know the Brewers aren’t the greatest team in the world but if anyone wants to go to the games this coming year I’m going to need the company. Other than that it was another boring week. Packers got a big win against the Bears, and I actually got a call back from a job so lets hope that things start to look up on the job front. Until next week.
