Braves and Mets

I'll be in Atlanta for the Braves & Mets series from Tuesday through Friday. Here are the expected pitching matchups.

Maine vs. Glavine
Vargas vs. Campillo
Pelfrey vs. Jurrjens
Santana vs. Hudson

I likely won't be able to make that first game, but the final seems like an awesome showdown. Looking forward to some great baseball.

Studious of Laborious Ease

I'll mostly be writing on my new wordpress blog, Studious of Laborious Ease for the summer.

The poem-a-day grind for the month of May has proven to be more fun than expected. Sometimes more difficult, sometimes easier depending on the amount of time I can invest, but definitely more fun all around.
