August 11, 2017: Recovery
I got an unexpected message on FB yesterday from a guy I worked on some TV projects with in Washington. He and I hadn't talked in probably six years; turns out he overcame heroin addiction about eight months ago after battling it for five years.
That world of hard drug addiction seems so far removed from me at this point that it seems more like a movie I saw than my own life; hopefully time will afford him the same feeling.

Game 112 Twins at Brewers
Will the hot bats continue? I hope so!
Happy Bartolo Day!
August 9, 2017: Dongers And Salami
An impressive offensive display by the Twins last night. Hopefully more of the same in that weird box the Brewers play in.
Meija to the DL though. 🙁
