Loading... Third Wednesday Movie Day
Why yes, I forgot, but I wouldn't have been able to participate on Monday anyway.
It was real light on movies here last month (and really, 2012 has been a lousy month for me catching movies in general) but I did see a bit of TV. I started Sons of Anarchy after the hundredth person asked me to do so. Two episodes in, I'm liking it just fine, though the writing occasionally doesn't trust the audience and over-explains itself.
I watched an episode of Mad Men for the first time in over a year, too. I'm not sure how I stalled on that, though I suppose it has something to do with how depressing it is.
The next movie I watched was going to be the feel-good documentary about Kevin Clash, the Elmo puppeteer, but I'll probably head in a different direction now.
November 21, 2012: Migraine
I don't know where the cutoff is for "migraine" and "garden variety headache," but I think I crossed over into the former yesterday. I can't move my neck without wincing.

Yesterday, I was quite disgusted with myself and I told you so. I should do that more often. Continue reading WGOM Fitness: 20 November 2012, Good Day

Ron Cash was drafted by Minnesota in the sixth round in 1969, but did not sign. Other than that, no players connected to the Twins were born on this day.
