June 9, 2015: The Waiting
Is the hardest part. I have a long break coming for a Minnesota trip and I guess I'm only somewhat sure they'll approve it.
June 8, 2015: MS 150
Our hometown Dread Pirate is once again going to ride the MS 150 in honor of his wife Sheenie. Follow the link to donate to the cause.
June 6, 2015: Soon…Soon
I'll be in MN for ten days or so starting in under a month. With the addition of two driving days on both sides, this is the longest break I've had from work for four years.
June 5, 2015: Summer Isn’t Interesting
And there's nothing happening worth CoC'ing about.
2015 Game 53: Twins at Red Sox
The Twins have already won the season series, but hey, let's take one more from this supreme disappointment of a team (and division).
Tommy Milone vs. Steven Wright. Milone returned to the Twins today, as we suspected he might, and apparently the Sawks don't do well against lefties. Wright didn't make the majors until two years ago at age 29, so he has limited long-term potential, but is serviceable. His K rate has been pretty good at every stop, he makes a lot of deadpan jokes under his frizzy baldish afro, and he walks a few as well. He's thoroughly average in every other way I can see.
Alright, let's keep this unlikely season going.
June 4, 2015: Let’s Clean This Up
Today I'm going to see how close I can get to Email Zero. As I go to bed, I have 44 that need attention.
June 2, 2015: We’re Gonna Need a Bigger Boat
While at work I missed the "popular movie quotes that have penetrated into everyday speech" conversation yesterday; the above is one I've used here and there. Also: "Alright, alright, alright."
June 1, 2015: No Warning
We're at about 106 degrees or so after weeks of easy 80 degree weather. I'm melting.

My longest trip to Minnesota is starting to get pretty close here.
