It’s a good thing I’m not playing softball again until a week from Tuesday. My throwing arm from my shoulder to my elbow is aching like crazy today and all I’m doing is typing. I think I really aggravated it on a throw from right-center to second the other day. I may need to go…
Last night, I bought Def Leppard’s new cover album, “Yeah!” from the Apple Music store, and I listened to the whole thing on the way into work this morning. The good news is that it wasn’t terrible. That bad news is that I wasn’t particularly impressed. The album is supposed to demonstrate Def Leppard’s roots,…
When I got on the train this morning, I realized that I might have left my headlights on, and rather than worry about it all day, I figured I’d write about it and forget it until I get back to the train station this afternoon. I have 2 things in my favor: 1. Muscle memory.…
I was pretty tired when I got home from work this evening, which is unusual, considering I had my regular 30 minute nap at lunch and that usually does the trick for me. I think it has something to do with the fact that I was out until 11 PM last night and didn’t get…
I decided to listen to some Ray Charles this morning while working on this project resource mangement tool that I’m trying to finish up, and I’ve discovered that Ray Charles is some good music for writing code. It’s easy to get into a good rhythm with that stuff playing. Good to know.
Well, we lost our second softball game by the obscene score of 26-12, but in part this was because we didn’t have a full team in the first two innings and the score got out of hand early, before we settled down. After that, despite the score, we played well. I played short stop, as…
Norm and I had breakfast this morning while Vicky was out bringing home the bacon. In the early afternoon, we decided to head down to Nyack for the street fair they were holding. I’d been to the Nyack street fair at least once before but it had been a really long time ago. Almost immediately,…
Try as I might to sleep in late this morning, I was up by 8 AM. Norm, Vicky and I spend the morning chatting and making fun of some of the items in the Rockland County Journal News until Vicky had to go off to her tutoring session. Vicky has taken on this second job…
I arrived in Nanuet half an hour later than predicted, mainly because there was a massive amount of traffic in Newark. The song playing at the time I pulled into Norm & Vicky’s place was #73 “Danger Zone” by Kenny Loggins. We went to Martio’s for pizza for dinner and then came back to Norm…
I’m driving up to New York, leaving in an hour or so, and given the weather conditions and traffic estimates, I am currently planning on arriving at Norm and Vicky’s at approximately 6:15 PM. I am listening to my autobiography playlist on the drive up and, given my time estimates, I predict that I will…
