This year, for her birthday, she's getting all the yoga stuff she asked for. It might not sound exciting to simply get what you asked for a couple of months back, but she's married to a person with the memory of a goldfish, so I'm betting it'll blow her mind.

Unless I tell her to read the CoC!
My mind is blown just that he remembered the Co'C this morning.
A review of Gibson's start from Fangraphs. Gibson also is the only Twins starter with a contact percentage under 80%. He's at 79%. The next best % for starters is 84%. Perkins and Burton are at 76% and 75%. Somebody forgot to tell Gibson to pitch to contact. His xFIP is 3.30 (ERA is at 3.00) and his tERA is 1.86. This comes under the caveat that it is SSS and against the Royals, but then again, ask P.J. Walters how easy it is to pitch to the Royals.
first Twins first-round pitcher EVAH to win his major league debut start. Or so the radio guys told me yesterday.
Same thing was said on FSN last night.
The list of Twins' pitchers selected in the first round, especially the actual first round and not the supplemental round, is unimpressive to say the least.
The writeup to #2 is excellently snarky about the Twins.
Number 3, of course, involves us missing Henry Blanco.
Also, good pull, Pirate. I thought the opening part was the snark, until I got to the paragraph below the Deduno-shakes-off-Joe? gif. Awesome.
The last sentence almost killed me. I laughed. Out loud.
Ugh, this weekend has sucked. Went to change the brake pads in my wife's car and found that they weren't needed, which was good, but then I found that the stupid thing is leaking oil. Awesome. (Please be oil pan gasket, please be oil pan gasket.)
Impending debt from fixing the car aside, I did make a strawberry pie that looks fantastic. Hopefully it tastes as good as it looks.
In another slight positive on the weekend, i managed to move a mattress and box spring into the basement from what will be the baby's room so painting can resume without washing the trinket up, and in the process,i found my old copy of halo and verified it worked in my 360, so our plans for my buddy's bachelor party next month are still good to go.
Speaking of fixing, my new bike is finished. Got a water bottle holder that works with my Camelback water bottle, a rack onto which I can strap my camping gear, and new brake levers because the stock ones were flimsy plastic I didn't trust to hold in an emergency. All the brakes and derailleurs are tuned, hubs and brackets lubed too. I can't wait to go on an adventure. Only 2.5 weeks until I'm back from my cousin's wedding with my stuff my parents are bringing from their place for me.
My weekend started with the discovery that someone had jacked my webber grill from my back area / yard. I'm not a happy camper.
Steal a man's grill, steal a man's soul. That sucks meat, and it always makes me sad that i have to keep mine in the garage because i don't trust people not to do that sort of thing.
I'm kind of hoping it was stolen for a fourth of july cook off, but I know in my heart of hearts a crack head sold my baby for scrap metal. Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
that is just freakin' cold, man. Should be a hangin' offense.
Depends on the condition of the grill. If it were a threadbare rustbucket, could be a god-send (New Grill!). If twas in good shape, you're right, get the rope.
What was cooking on it at the time?
Nothing?
Then you have only yourself to blame.
Seriously though... that blows. I can imagine few thefts that would be more demoralizing. Also, I was totally ok when one of the wheels broke off of my grill, because that thing ain't going anywhere now.
Someone once stole my baseball glove off my bike when I was 10. I was not happy.
That's about equivalent.
pork was in marinade when I went out to light the grill. I had to eat at Dat Dog to ease my pain.
I'm not a fan of having things stolen, but on a scale of 1-10 this is like a 3.5 with the time our entire house was robbed in Buffalo being an 11.5.
Ugh. I cannot imagine what it would be like to have your entire home robbed. That's the specific scenario I thought of when I mentioned few that would be more demoralizing. Hadn't realized you'd been there... Sorry to hear it.
Ok, that was hilarious. On MLB Network, they were showing a Marlins rally in the 9th. They loaded the bases in a tie game with one out. The Padres brought in a 5th infielder from the outfield and did all sorts of maneuvering on defense. Mathis then crushed a grand slam. The best laid plans...
