Long Weekends are Too Short

Coming off the Memorial Day long weekend, it was tough to get back into the swing of things at work. I managed to drink beer and eat with friends on 4 occasions over the weekend, beginning on Friday night. We did not achieve much more than this but really enjoyed relaxing and hanging out with friends. Helped the American beer economy by drinking as much local brew as I could manage - Yuengling, Sam Adams and Magic Hat were all sampled on many occasions. Yuengling is a drinking staple in my house but I have to say the the Sam Adams Summer Ale is another good reason for enjoying this time of the year.

Thoroughly enjoyed watching the Waratahs smash the Sharks on the weekend and go through to the Super 14 final. It will be tough against the Crusaders but if they play like they did last weekend, we have a chance. Also, followed the cricket on the internet as the Directv website said nothing about the Australia v West Indies test. I found out today that I could have been watching it if I had bothered to turn on my TV :-( . I will make sure I am lined up to watch the next match for sure. Only comments on the side are that it is about time Lee and Clark took the new ball and also, we miss Hayden at the top of the order. Like the way we are playing though and should do well for the rest of the series.

Hayden is officially out for the series with an achilles tendon injury.

Thanks for the update. Bad news there. Hopefully the top order can work out their troubles ASAP!!
