Opening Day

We popped the cork on the dusty bottle of champagne that had sat sadly on the shelf for months (having been purchased last year in anticipation of the boys making the World Series). We hoped it would be the perfect lucky start to this season - year one hundred.

The bubbles always feel good, but I think they are more exceptional at ten in the morning. I am also quite certain they made the beer and peanuts, noshed on later in the day at the game, taste even better than usual.

The Cubs failed to uphold their end of the bargain though, and lost. (sigh)

I can't say I'm a Cubs fan, but I'm a fan of Cubs fans. They tend to be more reliable than the team they support (or the team I support for that matter).

Will be at Wrigley in May for the D-backs series... kind of like the champagne-before-beer idea...
