I've Been....

....under the weather this week :-(  Incredibly achy and exhausted and kind of dizzy and crabby.  Took two loooong hot Epsom salt baths which I think have helped me recover from whatever the heck I'm experiencing.  At first I thought it might be soreness from playing my first softball game of the season in the rain and cold (I struck out two guys looking -- gotta love that!), but as the week progressed, clearly something had taken hold of me.  I think I'm past the worst today.  I woke up finally feeling like ME. Don't know who that person was last week....I so hate being sick.  One of the worst parts about it for me is that I inevitably feel sorry for myself and get depressed, which surely does not help recovery :-/

On a completely different topic, anybody totally disappointed in the series finale of The Good Wife?  So many bad things about the last few episodes leading up to the end....and why would she fight tooth and nail and alienate everyone defending her husband who cheated on her over and over and over and lied and did who knows what?  Very disappointing.  Made me think how difficult it is to end a series successfully.  M*A*S*H was amazing...The Mary Tyler Moore Show a classic....Friends did it right....I think that's got to be the hardest thing to get right -- especially if the show has been so successful for a long time.  Ah, well....I'm just an actor writing a blog, not an actor in a series or a writer of a series.  It's easy being a Monday morning quarterback.

Is this not completely adorable?  I found this at the antique shop I usually stop in between Indianapolis and Chicago when I visit my folks.  A little piggy planter!  Had to have it :-)
