Wearing a tie to work does make me feel professional, however, wearing a tie to work also is a bad idea when it is 97 degrees outside.

There is nothing better than getting the full experience of a game when you visit a new ballpark. In my case, I went to Busch Stadium in St. Louis... Pujols hit a pair of homers, the Cards won 5-3 and I had ice cold Budweiser. Life is good.

Had my first full-contact rugby practice in quite some time last night and as a result I have a black eye at work. Is looking tough in the office worth it? You bet it is.

Trawling through my collegues Twitter accounts and calling out their spelling and punctuation errors.

"But Marcus, everyone makes mistakes. Why would you do that?"

To that I say, "Because I can."

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and that's all well and good. A few years of Ritalin and some child behavior classes and all of that was taken care of. I do remember my third grade teacher, Dr. Gibbs getting upset with me for looking out the window.

Since getting moved to a window seat in my office, I find myself gazing at the wrong times. Oh dear sweet window, please do not be my downfall.

My favorite part of the last game of the season during Little League is that I can rearrange my lineup any way I see fit. That being said, be prepared for a true all-star cast on the pitcher's mound tonight.

I have been moved to a window seat. I can already feel the distraction mounting. Oh, this is going to be a tough adjustment period. Trees and sunshine and the parking lot are all part of my view.

Well, another long offseason for TCU is forthcoming. Lame.

I have not taken this much interest in the College World Series in several years. It is weird, this is one of my first years not to make a bracket, but I have been glued to news feeds during the Regional round and Super Regional.

For the record, I am wearing purple today. Consider this my "homer" writing for TCU. I encourage all readers to let Robert Tracy know who the winner is if/when TCU takes home the title tonight.

It has taken 10 months and 25 days but I finally am clear in Tarrant County for that pesky speeding ticket that has been blog fodder since last July.

TAKE THAT CIVIL COURT SYSTEM!
