A big game for Nishioka. Josmil Pinto stays hot. Elizabethton opens its playoff series in Danville tonight.
WGOM Fitness: August 29, 2012
The hardest part of my current fitness plan is enduring days like yesterday. I got up at 3:30AM, drove 275 miles, worked a full day, drove another 200 miles and ended up in a hotel room in Bismarck. I wasn't really all that tired (although I slept pretty soundly last night), but I had no opportunity to exercise and eating was a foraging event. Well, actually, it wasn't that bad, I had breakfast in my kitchen and a lunch according to my diet. But, what about dinner? I was traveling with another person and we stopped on the way at Applebee's (did not see @dadboner there). It turns out that they have a few 550 calorie offerings on the menu. I had a lime chicken offering. It wasn't great, but it wasn't awful for me, either.
In the past, I have brought workout clothes to hotels to take advantage of workout rooms. Due to the schedule here, though, I didn't bother. I knew I would be taxed to the nth degree as it is. Besides, I'll be home Thursday night, so I can get back on the workout routine then.
No weigh in, but I'm pretty happy that I was able to stay on track yesterday.
August 29, 2012: Bad Habits
Skim, thanks to her amazing ability to tell little white lies before bed, found out yesterday that she has some pretty bad cavities in one of her baby teeth. We've been trying to stay on her about stuff like this, but hopefully this will make her want to change...
Happy Birthday–August 29

according to the description, this was recorded in "an attic in south minneapolis". based on that description, there's 4:1 odds i've been in that attic before.

Game what? The T___s played today?
I stopped listening to tonight's game loss after Diamond gave up the three run bomb so I could listen to Swans and finish my studies for the evening. I just got home, and my friend shared this link with me.
For those of you who don't want to just click a link sight unseen, this is Ken Rosenthal, obviously in the midst of a slow day, wondering if perhaps now that they freed up some salary the Red Sox might try to trade for Joe Mauer.
Instead of recounting the Twins' 16th loss in their last 19 games, let's laugh at what a moron Rosenthal is.
