Sorry I couldn't make it. I was in the office until after midnight. Oh, for the days when I had nothing to do and left the office at 5 -- I would have taken the Metra out and crashed at my parents - Lunar is about 4 or 5 blocks from the Villa Park stop. Were the beers there any good last night?

Unfortunately, soon afterward Will broke down when forced to confront his true feelings for Rick Ankiel.

Will tried to speak through the tears and choked throat, but he faltered once more when remembering the one-year anniversary of Barbaro's passing:

Woah. I didn't know that he felt that strong about either of those two. He makes his (fanhood)? of Ankiel sound like something that is out of the ordinary, and something he is fine with. Sure, he feels for his situation, but... I didn't think there would be tears.

Barbaro. I believe the last sentence of that chapter is something along the lines of "Oh well, he was just a horse."
