please follow, here. ❤ thank you kindly!
hear, hear.
For all of his shenanigans, let’s not forget what an asset to the Cubs he once was. I still love you, Z.
I could just say i’m happy that Zambrano is finally leaving the Cubs but instead i’ll remind his greatest moment as Cubbie.
"The useless days will add up to something. The shitty waitressing jobs. The hours writing in your journal. The long meandering walks. The hours reading poetry and story collections and novels and dead people’s diaries and wondering about sex and God and whether you should shave under your arms or not. These things are your becoming."

“i finally figured out what bothered me so much about you.”
— well, lay it on me studly.
“it’s the way you’re so concerned about protecting yourself. i mean, no one in this entire hospital has a bad thing to say about you and i’m guessing that’s because you’re so careful not to rub anyone the wrong way.
… and you still wear your wedding ring. that prevents any guy from getting anywhere near you. you wouldn’t operate on mr. peters and we both know how you’re protecting yourself there. i dunno, i guess in the grand scheme of things it’s not that big of a deal. i just, i was a little disappointed when i found out who you turned out to be. i’ll see you around kim.”

“i saw you did that surgery on mr. peters… did you decide it was the right thing to do?”
— no, actually, it was a stupid career risk.
“then why’d you do it?”
— because for some reason i, find myself really caring about what you think of me.
“oh. cool.”
i hope it snows some time after i land in chicago next week. because if it does, i think it could be a pretty awesome christmas.
