ME: today i woke up at becky's mom's house to dan lubell's call. he was warning me he was coming to get me in an hour so we can film this "the other spitzer hooker speaks out" sketch. so i woke up with an upset stomach and got my act together. dan picked me up and we hit the road. it was good to be filming something. it's been a while. we have a droughts and we have our productivity rivers. lately, we've had a drought. and while i usually do something else in the in-between time, this time i haven;t done anything. anyways. we went to the night agency, where dan works and where i've done a bunch of silly stuff (www.youtube.com/czg123) and filmed this crazy things where i play, Patty Cakes, governor spitzer's other hooker on the side-side. everything was fine and dandy until i had to go out and film stuff on the street. skimpy dress thing, black too-too and red boa. i got cat calls from the merchants of canal--who stopped their daily prayers to whistle and gawk and laugh...mostly the latter. we shot it pretty fast and then took off as dan had to run back to pick up kacy to go to her folks' house for dinner. it took us forever to find parking. my stomach was messed up before we filmed, and then afterwards--once i got home and decided to eat. though the game was televised today, i saw none of it. got home, brought $56 worth laundry in to get done, cleaned and tidied up. i have to say the apartment looks great and has really come together! ruddy put the fire under my ass to open up some room around the apartment and for that i am grateful. it hasn't been easy, but it has been worth the time and effort and i do feel happier about getting stuff done around the house. tonight, i feel like i could just watch some movies and/or read. i've been in a weird mood most of the day and yesterday. some sort of creeping sadness and anxiety that i try to shake but can't budge. i at once have tons on my mind, then nothing. i feel fine one second and freaked out the next. i worry about my boss and his wife. i worry about my mom. spoke to my dad at the most inopportune time yesterday and felt guilty about rushing him off the phone. that's been my weekend.
METS: today Pedro was perfecto in four, striking out four and allowing only four hits! i wish i saw him throw. maybe i can catch the replay. today was a split-squad game with Pedro-Mets playing the Tigers and Figueroa-Mets playing the Houston Astros. both Mets teams won. all other Mets pitchers after Pedro: Wise, Schoeneweis, Feliciano and Register all did swell...except
new gun, Brian Stokes (pictured above as a Devil Ray with a fan) who allowed six hits and four runs in the sixth inning. Jose went 1-3 with a triple, run scored and an RBI. Delgado had another good day at the plate, going 1-2 with an RBI. Anderson was 3-4 with a run. Beltran was 0 for the day. for the Tigers, Pudge went 3-3 to raise his spring average to .429. Carlos Guillen hit a two-run home run in the Tigers' effort to beat the Mets. Jake Eigsti, who came in for Castillo at second, went 1-1 with a run scored and two RBI. good win for the Mets and Pedro! in the other game, Nelson Figueroa started and the story here is, he hasn't been on a major league roster since 2004. to his credit, he's spent the last few seasons pitching down in mexico and taiwan. the non-roster invitee, allowed only one hit and one run, while striking out two over four innings of work as the Mets beat the Astros, 6-4. the other Reyes, who plays second base, went 1-4 with a run and an RBI; as was the case with the other Reyes (Jose), this Reyes (A.) also hit a triple! this Reyes came to the Mets as a free agent and played in the Indians' farm system. Victor Mendez went 2-4, with two RBI for the Mets as Jose Cruz Jr. (i have so many of his father's baseball cards! he was also an Astro!) had a two-run homer in Houston's three-run eighth inning. who knows what will happen with this Figueroa, El Duque and Pelfrey!
