Random notes from my baseball-addled brain.


  • For no reason I just weighed myself. No shoes, but with wallet, keys, Leatherman and small flashlight still on my belt, 162.4 lbs.

  • I doubt that the clothing and belt crap comes in at more than 2 lbs or so. This means that I'm close to ten pounds over my average of the last few years.

  • This is a very good thing.

  • I may have to get back into working cons.

  • Well, we do call him The Freak. Tim Lincecum on his poor showing in yesterday's opener. "I'm just taking it with a grain of rice."

  • Somewhere, Yogi Berra just looked up sharply.

  • Really weird day today. See? A is the warehouse. B is the Fuel Line. C and D were my only deliveries of note.

  • Very odd weather too. At one point a storm cell was following me along Hwy 4.

  • Kirsten and I have written a filk. It will be posted when we're happy with it.

  • Pizza tonight!

  • Which means more beer!

  • And Randy Johnson starting for the Giants.

  • Life, for the most part, is good.

  • Since I'm weird, I entered our home address and the hotel in Montreal, and told it to avoid highways. The resulting trip would be a lot of fun, assuming we had time to stop and see things.

  • Which means I need to win the lottery.

  • In crappy news, Dave Arneson has passed away. Blackmoor is still one of the better campaign settings out there, close to forty years on.

I always found it amusing that someone named Randy Johnson has the nickname of "Big Unit."

That map is so cool.

I might just pull one for our trip to Tempe for Westercon this year.

congrats on the weight gain! I know it's as frustrating for some to put on weight/mass as it is for some of us to shed them. Damn that whole inertia thing.
