OOOH! This is gonna be fun!



In just a few days, the Dodgers will fly to New York to face the Mets. And former Atlanta Brave (and special centerpiece of this blog) Greg Maddux will face former Atlanta Brave Tom Glavine.

Glavine's numbers aren't as stellar as The Professor's. But they're pretty damn good. Glavine and Maddux are friends, which adds to the drama. And Glavine has remained pretty damn good looking, too.

Thank goodness for the Dodgers and the play-offs. Otherwise I'd be forced to think about the Cubs horrific season (almost 100 losses!) and whether ridding ourselves of Dusty Baker and Andy McPhail will make a difference.

Sorry, but no



I had a few minutes between buses yesterday and stopped at Kohl's. I picked up this Good Skin moisturizer and had nothing but high hopes. Alas, they were all dashed. This moisture cream simply isn't creamy enough to replace my beloved Principal Secret Time Release Moisture. It actually left my skin feeling a little tight.

At first it made me sad that I had wasted $15 on this jar. Then my mom pointed out that I could still use it on my knees, elbows, neck, etc. So now I'm happy … or happy-ish. I really didn't need a new body lotion and I still don't have a replacement face cream. But at least I don't feel like I took three $5 bills, folded them into a little boat, and floated it along the gutter and down the drain with the rainwater.
