Well, it’s finally here.
First, today is the 15th anniversary of
9/11. I remember sitting in my cubicle
in Schaumburg, IL
and hearing reports of a small plane crashing into one of the World Trade
Center towers. We knew for sure something was up when a 2nd
plane crashed into it. I recall seeing
from our office windows a military fighter jet guiding a commercial flight into
O’Hare airport. We were let go early and
we all watched the remainder of the day’s sad activities from our homes.
Well, today is my Chicago Bears 1st game of the
new NFL season, at the Houston Texans.
The team has undergone a lot of changes and a few new pieces haven’t had
much time to practice together. I think
we should be a better team this year although it might take a few games to get
coordinated and by then there could be some serious injuries.
In the 2nd half I started munching on the bag of
salted-in-the-shell peanuts my son brought me from the States. The Bears lost to the Texans 23-14.
I think I mentioned I subscribed to Chess.com’s Gold plan
for $5 a month; it allows me to practice 25 tactics and take 5 lessons each
day.
Teresa and I started watching Kill Bill Vol. 1 (8.1) on Netflix.
I received an email from my son that he had arrived safely
in Fort Lauderdale.
T-shirt of the day: Smoke weed.
