Reading things in your blog about myself was really hard for me, and upsetting, and negative, and I guess that we both lack that thick skin quality because we are caring, feeling women.<BR/><BR/>You're welcome to read my blog, which I started at around the same time you started yours. I don't think I ever blogged about you, or the divorce, or anything unkind about my ex. It's not my style.<BR/><BR/>It hurt me a lot to read the Ex-Ina and Google posts, but I think I'll survive it. The good thing I got from the experience was the insight that you are a hard-working and devoted mom. I just wish you hadn't put the negativity out there. I didn't deserve it.<BR/><BR/>BrinaBrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16453862405763188247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13751586.post-1146337028739391552006-04-29T13:57:00.000-05:002006-04-29T13:57:00.000-05:00Periodically I have to sit through the "love your ...Periodically I have to sit through the "love your tie" routine.

We're pretty evenly matched in terms of standings (Ms 9-14, Twins 9-12) so it definitely comes down to which team shows up in <I>both</I> dugouts.<BR/><BR/>If you want to talk about ass handing, let's look at the 13-3 routing the M's suffered at the hands of the White Sox on Tuesday. I mean, sure, CHW is a longballing team but this is freaking <I>Safeco</I>, one of the pitcher friendliest parks in the league. There's just no excuse for that.<BR/><BR/>Freakin' Pineiro.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18284048462671310960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13751586.post-1146242551350518152006-04-28T11:42:00.000-05:002006-04-28T11:42:00.000-05:00I would try to argue, but I'm not a complete glutt...I would try to argue, but I'm not a complete glutton for punishment. <BR/><BR/>Although "ASS HANDING" might be a little extreme, I'll grant you that the outcome of that series will depend entirely on which team shows up--the underachieving Twins or the team that lives up to the potential I KNOW they have. Somewhere. Or at least that I used to know they had, back before before all the ass-crappery. It could go either way.<BR/><BR/>And anyway, I would think you'd be a little more grateful to the team that relieved you of Bret Boone.<BR/><BR/>Just sayin'.TwinsGoddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09408606035762981315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13751586.post-1146241982660530462006-04-28T11:33:00.000-05:002006-04-28T11:33:00.000-05:00Completely unrelated but still poignant: What may ...Completely unrelated but still poignant: What may help you develop that thicker skin is the <I>ass handing</I> your boys are gonna take next Monday and Tuesday.<BR/><BR/>;)robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18284048462671310960noreply@blogger.com
