update

so lets see what have i been upto this past month.. well the month started out with my totaling my subaru in a 1 car accident that i bounced off of a set of guardrails knocking my bumper clean off the car and destroying my headlight and ruining the engine and yeah it was a total loss.. so went through the headache of dealing with the insurance company and the bank where my loan was kept and finally have the debt paid off .
 SO the question then was now what do i drive so my parents made the decision to buy a new car and so we bought a new 2009 toyota matrix and so far i love the car it doesn't the greatest gas mileage but it gets me from a-b.
  Whatelse.. I have decided to once again take the NHBUA Baseball Umpiring Development classes which i took about 4 years ago.. hopefully this time I can actually focus and pass my two test the field test not soo concerned about but the written one more concerned about.
 But i have talked with a couple of my friends about getting some help going over the rule book and studying so that when I do sit for the written test in june i will be as prepared as i can be i mean it is multiple choice but still not always that good at taking  the tests. I mean i just 2nd guess myself with being unsure about questions and such even though i know most of the material just i don't always trust myself.
 SO thats what really been going on I haven't had a lot of filming oppertunites to speak of but oh well starting next weekend every sunday I will have my classes for 4 hours so we shall see.
 oh yea so I finally have moved on with my life and have actually gone out on a couple of dates though none of them have really paid off much i mean i have made a new friend and all but yet i have also begun talking to a wonderful young woman whose name i will keep for myself sorry  readers to disapoint but can't reveal that info quite yet but she is sweet, sexy, smart, makes me feel great and alive which is something I haven't felt in soo long that i am really unsure what to make of it but i love the feeling but it is something that i am happy i am once again feeling and i am glad that it is this young woman that has brought it out of me.

I just can't wait for spring to be here and to be umpiring again and to be earning some money and to just be able to get out and watch the sox with some friends get a beer and just relax i mean this past year hasn't been the easiest for me and i am really looking forward to i dont know something good happening I guess I mean everytime i start to get my life started in a direction something goes wrong and it knocks me back a couple of steps but thats life i mean right?? as the rolling stones sang you can't always get what you want so just gotta stay with it and eventually things will start to turn my way!

looking back on a year gone past

So lets see whats been up with me .. well as another holiday season draws closer to an end, I am looking back on the year that was. It started out with me loosing a job coincidentally on new years eve day of 2009 and then a month later I began working as free lance videographer which I still do to this very day. In April I resumed my umpiring for a 7th year in a row and also had a wonderful and exciting trip to visit my sister in new york city. I continued umpiring till mid july when I was part of my first theatrical production in over a year. I loved being part of the cast of 42nd St and also while doing that became part of another cast, this one for Barber of Seville. Both shows brought a new widening of my horizons and brought new friends and oppertunities into my life In October I had my 26th birthday and it was another wonderful time.. In November I took myself to see my first concert in over 5 years when Rockapella came to town. I also celebrated the one year anniversary of ...

Why Kevin Youkillis is the perfect blueprint for how Red Sox should handle Rafael Devers

photo credit: Cincinnati Enquier^.com Kevin Youkilis over 8.5 years with the Red Sox provided grit, determination, ^ a power-bat. Yet it was his defensive versatility that let the Red Sox get better. When the Red Sox drafted Kevin Youkilis out of the University of Cincinnati where he put together a .410/.549/.714/1.263 offensive stat line. Yet it was the fact that Youkilis also led the nation with 59 walks compared to just striking out just 21 times, that attracted then-GM Theo Epstein to draft the young third baseman in the 8th round of the 2001 draft. Youkilis would spend three seasons in the minors before reaching the M ajors during the 2004 season, where he would play a minor role that season during the team's championship run, appearing in 72 games that year , hitting .260 with 7 home-^runs driving in 35. Yet between 2007 and 2011 is when Youkilis would truly prove to be one of the best players in the game.  Over that five years, Youkilis would average 1...

Soo as we start the beginning of week #3 I have come to the realization that as much as I want to be like all the other guys who are here umpiring, I need to be able to listen to my body and adjust certain things to make it possible to actually umpire correctly.  My knee is still in one place the swelling has continued to go down but the soreness is still there. Hopefully by Tuesday or Wednesday I can slowly start ramping it up again and won't have lost too much time.
