Let me know what you think about the books when you're done. Yay for spending money for GAL things! I know it may seem frivolous but it will do wonders for you. I think it's hard to justify because you seem to be handling things so well already but you really do need to be good to yourself right now.

I know I'd feel differently if it were the Mariners in the playoffs but for some reason I've just never developed an attachment to the Rockies. Since BF is a Cubs fan he will only root for the Rockies if it doesn't hurt the Cubbies (well, same with me and the Giants). But both of us rank football as #1. [Speaking of the Cubbies, have I told you that I found a Cubbie bar within walking distance of our house? They have Old Style on tap, great pizza and have Italian beef on the menu which we haven't tried yet.]

My gf from college who lives down the street married a guy who doesn't like football. She claims bait and switch since when they first started dating he said he was a Raiders fan (not good but workable) and after they got married he said he didn't see the point in it. He wants to go camping, hiking, ice climbing every weekend. I may be able to get serious about a man who didn't watch football but I would not be able to live with someone who wanted me to give it up in favor of other activities.


If you love somebody, set them free.
