Cal called last night from Cincinnati. He was spending the weekend there with friends as they had tickets to watch the Dodgers play the Reds tomorrow. They were hoping to see Pujols hit a home run in one of his last major league games. They had enjoyed themselves Saturday afternoon watching the IU game at a Cincy bar at least for the first three quarters of the game. After that Cal's friends wouldn't let him trash talk anymore as Cincinnati had taken the lead. Cal was disappointed in the score and the fact that he had to be quiet, but was happy to report that he didn't get beat up at the bar.
Cal's second piece of news wasn't quite as fun as the first part, however. While he was hanging out with his friends, someone threw a rock through his back window completely shattering it. The good news was that all they took was a couple of cases of beer, but he would definitely need a new back window. He and his friends duct taped a trash bag to the opening, so that they could still go to the baseball game today. Cal made plans with Doug to come home after he took his friends back to Chicago, so that he could get the window fixed here. It would be a long day of driving for him, but at least everyone was safe and they all still got to enjoy the weekend.
