Harmony ,'First Date'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm taking my mother in to have her hooked up to one of those wearable heart monitors today.
May the reports give you peace of mind.
JZ got about 12 hours of sleep and I knew she was feeling perkier this morning because she immediately got in my way during my morning crunch time
Your bigger kitchen should make it easier!
Intrinsic to kitchens' nature is that, as soon as you're in there, your spouse will suddenly need to be in there too and get underfoot. (This is not [solely] a complaint about Tim, because I do the same thing to him. There's just a magnetic pull to a kitchen occupied by one's spouse.)
This is 100% true in my experience. They get sucked into your wake.
Glad to hear that JZ is recovering.
I’m sorry that the A’s don’t seem to be a very good baseball team this season, David.

I'm really not trying to one-up anyone here, but the Reds gave up 9 runs to the Phillies in THE FIRST INNING yesterday. That's so spectacularly bad that there should be a new category for it.

Pshaw! If we had a semi-competent bullpen we would've beaten the Mets 2 out of 3 this weekend.
I'm not worried about the A's because they've already done some stellar bargain bin hunting in collecting guys like Brent Rooker and Ryan Noda for practically nothing. Guys they targeted in trades like Ruiz and Langeliers are looking like long term solutions up the middle - strong on defense and offense.
We haven't even started bringing up our top prospects yet: Soderstrom, Gelof and Miller are all in Triple-A. Speaking of Mason Miller, he just struck out 11 in 5 IP with no walks or hits allowed.
That's like Jacob deGrom in his prime. Mason Miller throws 102mph, with a filthy slider and an unhittable cutter.
And we've been stashing a shit-ton of high ceiling pitching while we traded off the major league team, so we're going to be returning to .500 by next season, and competitive again in 2025.
Whether they'll still be in Oakland in 2025 is a different question.
Right now I'm being amused by the Lansing Lugnuts (our High-A affiliate) who run out a lineup with Trenkle and Winkler at the top of the order, which you have to admit would be great names for Keebler elves.

See also, kids and party guests. (This is why we knocked out the wall between the kitchen and the living room almost as soon as we moved in.)
Belated happy birthday, ND!
Happy birthday, Sheryl!
I usually work from home on Mondays, but maintenance is updating the smoke detectors/fire alarms in my building today and I decided I didn't need to be present for the auditory chaos.
Had a really hard weekend. The old house renovation is taking longer than expected for various reasons, and I made some mistakes which made things worse relationship-wise. Really feeling bad physically and mentally.
The house is looking very different now even in it's incomplete state.
Beautiful, Gud. House renovation ALWAYS takes longer than expected. It ain't you. Also, in case you forgot, no one should make you feel bad about being a human being.
Timelies all!
Thanks for the birthday wishes!
My MIL took us out for dinner yesterday, and Gary took me out tonight. I have had alcohol and red meat two days in a row. How decadent!
(I did have to work today, though)
