March has finally arrived and that only means one thing: BASKETBALL. I hope you all have your brackets filled out. I spent five minutes strategically picking each round - eenie, meenie, miney, moe. I have big money invested this year as opposed to past Madness. I guess anything is a lot compared to no participation. I have to admit that I always thought March Madness had to do with Spring Break?! So my investment in the activity this year comes as a surprise to me more than anyone else. Basketball is not my thing. To be honest, I think it's terribly boring. But in an effort to be a team player and learn something along the way, I said yes when recruited by my office to join in the fun. I think they are slightly amused in my involvement, especially after the Super Bowl pool, when I asked who was playing while handing in my dough. But they are determined to get me ready for baseball season (serious Yankee fans around here) and it's about time that I take an interest in how my good friend Joe Girardi's lineup is looking this year. At the very least, I can look uber sporty when sitting at a bar watching the game, rooting for Eenie or Meenie to win. Might just charm some guy into thinking I am equal parts sophisticated Lady to equal parts "girl who doesn't take herself too seriously and is willing to sit in a bar and watch a game." I am not sure when said watching of said game will occur, nor do I have any clue who is playing tonight, but hey, one step at a time. Just got an email updating me on my ranking among my colleagues - I am #2! Who knew I had such a gift for picking talent? March Madness might just buy be a new pair of shoes ;)
Happy weekend everyone!
