I am losing my mind.

Every year, like clockwork, the Monday before Opening Day comes around, and I am USELESS at work. I am so distracted right now, I should just go home.

I am staring at PP's, thinking about tinkering with my usual opening day routine, rallying peeps to head down for Opening Day and convincing them to call in sick with the "Del Mar Flu", a puzzling sickness that seems to invade the Southern California area for only a day, in mid to late July, only to leave the area and vanish once Opening Day festivities have concluded.

For the love of God and all things holy, can the rest of today, and Tuesday, be over with already?

gotta agree...I adore SA and HP but DM and 'Toga are the best....and to have not only one but TWO of my humble breeding efforts running at Del Mar is the fullfillment of a life long dream..........
