Middle of the Night Stupid Score Tweet & Text Storm

I once more had to go to bed early, around 9, but now I find myself up 2 hours before my alarm, 2 o' clock or so to be exact, and went to my phone to first see two texts from my Phillies friend.

Same pitcher, right?

So, I went to check the score. 6-0. That set me off on a text and twitter "rampage." No anger there, really (well, maybe some...now, that I'm proofreading and editing this...)  just a big eye roll after seeing how the Mets allowed this game to finish off. My friend was no doubt sleeping like any normal person would be at 2 in the morning, and the majority of #MetsTwitter was no doubt sleeping like any "normal people" would be. That didn't stop me from letting my thoughts be known, and now I'm up and taking advantage of the fact I need to get to work earlier than I had planned anyway 'cause #LyftLife gonna #LyftLife.

My texts. These were all sent back-to-back in real time typing, too.

Nice Autocorrect
I fell asleep early
Well that is stupid score
Falling asleep early was totally planned too. I'm desperate to drive.
Now I'm up earlier than my alarm by two hours but considering staying up...
Alright, you're obviously NOT so I'll stop flash flooding










 4 2/3 innings Jason Vargas. 1 run but case and point. I don't care if he's your 5th starter.  What, Gio Gonzalez REALLY can't go longer?
A couple of those made the Twitter feed as well. First, my last tweet before I went to bed.

Then, I woke up.



Then...I discovered a tweet about Daniel Murphy.


Then I texted the Murph tweet and finished up with this.
19LOB. NINETEEN. (****REDACTION: THIS WAS WRONG. MLB WROTE "19" ON THE BOXSCORE BUT AFTER A BACK AND FORTH ON A FACEBOOK METS PAGE, I REALIZED IT WAS A MISTAKE AND IT WAS CLOSER TO 11)
That's all. I got nothing else. I warned against a letdown game. (see basically last line of that post.) Stupid. Just stupid. You can't throw behind the opposition's back then not back it up. That game's on Mickey, as far as I'm concerned. Whatever. Day off then go get 'em.


Oh, one more thing, mets.com. 
SAVE THE HEADLINE SPIN.
I'll finish up with a pleasant distraction from yesterday.

STUPID. METSIES.
LET'S. GO. METS.
