Default Anyone else having trouble working?

I'm at my office trying to put in a full-days work before a Memorial Mass I have to attend at 5PM (Central) tonight before the game. I have 98.5 on the iPhone (via TuneIn radio app). Having a hard time concentrating on my work. A defendant in a major case just made a halfway decent settlement offer, and I'm almost ready to tell him, 'I'll call you tomorrow.'

Anyone else having trouble working today?

I worked the day shift today and I found that the anticipation of the game made the day go by faster.

This isn't the Super Bowl or playoff game and the Pats are in the postseason win or lose.....nothing to keep me from normal activity.

Now ask me about the day after SB 42 and you have a different story

While I keep telling myself this, tonight's game does have some intangible importance that I can't quite keep from bothering me. We could learn a lot about this team in this game, for better or for worse. And while it may not be a Super Bowl or mean much with statistical significance, I can't write off what this game potentially reveals about this year's Patriots. I think that is why I am a little nervous about this game. While it is seemingly meaningless, it is potentially very revealing.

Yeah I had trouble working today, but luckily I'm a government employee and no one could tell the difference.

Sunday and Monday are my unavailable days at work. So I tend to not miss games.

I would be heartbroken If I had to miss the game!
