UGH

Well today at work was not the easiest of days.. it started out well but at the end it didn't go so well. Counting money is my downfall it seems. I have a system that works most of the time but the past couple of days it hasn't come that easy.. especially tonight it wasn't my night.. I got off register at 9 and then it began counting down my drawer.. well every time I counted it down I kept getting different counts so I kept counting and recounting and still couldn't end up with the same amount of money that I needed to get. 
 SO at 9:30 was told I thought kinda rudely by my supervisor that "its 9:30 we want to go home" well I can understand that she wanted to go home and that with my counting my money it wasn't going to be easy to get out before 10:00 but still the attitude I could have used without but oh well.. 
so came home in a pissed off mood but I emailed my job coach and we shall see what happens hopefully they can help me find a better system of counting my money better.
 other than that I have tomorrow off and then work wednesday (PAY DAY BABY) then thursday have friday and saturday off and my sister comes home from NYC where she works as a Nanny and has been in Cape Cod and the Hamptons this summer so I am looking forward to seeing her and catching up a bit with her while she is home.
 Well it is late in the evening ( sorry for the paul simon reference) was listening to him earlier and need to get some sleep.

Soo today was a very light day. Had no control games or innings, but did have some time out on the drill field to get back into the habit of doing routine plays to get back into the swing of full umpiring.  Sadly I also started to realize how cutthroat this business can be.  Soo due to my injuries I haven't fully been at full health, as well as my other physical issues, have made my career has an umpire not the easiest of things to do.  I usually often in pain from my legs to my back and I do my best to push through it to continue to work my game, and due to the pain I may not look at athletic or graceful as other guys out there on the field, but I do my best.    One of the guys that I have gotten to know here at school, told me that sadly there have been a few guys that have snickered and made fun of me behind my back. He told me, not to worry about that, that the situation had been taken care of and that I should just focus on my game. To hear that a guy t...

A New Hall of Fame Class

As a young kid growing up I grew up on the heroes of the game, Ruth, Dimaggio, Mantle, Williams etc.  As I continued to grow up and watch the game of baseball grow and mature like I did, I was always excited to see what new legends were going to get to be immortalized into the Baseball Hall of Fame.   I've been lucky enough to visit the Hall of Fame on multiple occasions including as a kid with my dad, as a member of my high school baseball team on two occasions.   To now watch as more players that I grew up watching in the late 80's 90's and early 2000's it just reminds me of how wonderful this game truly and really is. I'll end this quick post with one of my favorite quotes from my favorite movie, Field of Dreams, "
Soo as we finished up week # 4 and start towards the home stretch, I am amazed at how fast this experience has gone.  I have waited over 3 years for this experience and to be on the fields working and learning and gaining experience that hopefully I will be able to use in order to become a better umpire, then I was before I came here.  Also getting to know and meet the instructors has been amazing. To personally get to talk with and get to know this guys that I have watched for years on tv and to just see them and talk with them has been a great learning experience.  As the guys have hammered into us, "Don't leave this experience with any regrets." I am definitely not going to do that. Even with my knee injury, I never stopped I kept fighting and learning and busting my ass to get back on the field, and I can tell everyone that I will not have any regrets when I come home, I will have left everything out on the field and will have made each and everyone of you that has...
