well the past few days have been busy I have been doing a lot of volunteering for the obama/biden campaign for both new hampshire and vermont and will continue to it again this weekend by making more phone calls and hopefully canvasing depending on the weather. And work after a rough couple of days where I actually was facing the possibility of being let go I have contacted my job coach and they met with my supervisor today and I think the meeting went well and I plan on talking with them over the next few days to see what was suggested on behalf of my work place and on behalf of the job coaches.
 Also I have been watching the DNC and wow the speeches beginning with Michelle Obama and tonight with Barack Obama making a special( not so surprise) appearance at the Convention has just lifted my spirits and has made me feel so proud to say that I am a democrat and that I am a supporter of Obama/Biden and I just hope that I can do my best as a lil ole volunteer to help get them to their rightful place at the end of this long race and that being at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and a lil place known as the WHITE HOUSE.
  Other than that nothing much movin with trying to get on the diabetes pump I have continued to talk with different people and try to get different point of view on what kind of pump is the best to get and such information regarding stuff like that. I found out today that the lab that I got blood drawn from mislabled it so I have to do it all over again oh well.. then I have scheduled my first of two meeting with the diabetes educators for mid october and the other is in mid november so hopefully by the holidays i will be on the pump...
 well thats about it..

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, "

So, this weekend is definitely one that I am glad is coming to a close. Saturday I received a phone call from someone inviting me out for a drink and to go see a local theatre production. Well lets just say I shouldn't have left my warm comfy room. I was dooped the person who called never showed up and I was left standing in the cold waiting for an hour and half.. now you may wonder why I waited soo long.. well its because I always believe that you should give someone the benefit of the doubt, but yeah for 90 minutes I waited and wondered what happened, until I finally came home and was in a bad mood. SO today, drove to meet someone I had been talking with for about a week and thought that there was a definite connection with them only to when we did meet have her pull a 180 and be totally bored, and uninterested in being with me. This is seriously starting to get on my nerves, the fact that I am a good genuine nice guy and yet women for the most part seem to not want anything ...

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...
