BLAH BLAH BLOGGING: Random thoughts swimming through my brain this morning:

Today is a beeyootiful Chicago day. Perfect for a Cubs game. And I'm going! I rule.

Every time I tell a woman I think Kobe is innocent I expect a crack across the mouth. Instead, so far, they just agree with me.

Could the Kobe trial eventually divide us more along gender lines than race lines? We'll see.

The time for finding a full-time job again is drawing near, and I'm actually excited about it. Either that or I'm just trying to forge a guilt-free path to my afternoon at Wrigley.

My son is making frog noises from his crib. Time to go get him.
