I'm going to guess that it was cold in Upstate New York on November 6, 2008. Summer Upstate is the most gorgeous time of the year - it's the other 49 weeks of the year that really wear on you. I was probably more than a little homesick. After all, Hurricane Ike had just gone through the Houston area and it was evident that the Window for that era of Astros' hopes was slamming shut. We were 1700 miles away from our families, and facing another winter.
I've always wanted to write. Sometimes it's the best way for me to express myself.
