I chalked this board at 2:30 Monday morning after being rudely awoken at 2:22am by my mom. Three hard knocks on the bedroom door startled me out of a dream that had me drooling on my pillow.
Thanks Ma…
I’ve had this song running through my head since seeing a video yesterday of Ike Reilly singing it. The lyrics landed and wouldn’t leave.
I rarely listen to this band much anymore. Usually around Saint Patrick’s Day and their one song at Christmas. That song is one of my favorite Christmas songs. The band was a solid foundation in my musical taste since the 1980’s. We are cut from the same cloth if you like The Pogues.
I don’t have much more to say since I’m up an hour earlier than normal. 3:33 is the angel number that my alarm is set at.
Today I start donating money to lucky winners of square pools and bracket pots. I always root for Maguire University, Indiana, Butler, Loyola, DePaul and Iowa. I don’t think any of my teams are in. So I’ll root for Illinois and Purdue.
The weather is going to suck this week. Let’s flip into the second half of March and hope for the best.
Gusto and astonishment for all Chalkheads.
Go Team….
