went up to chesterton for Morgan's going away party. It was a good time. I climbed a buoy ( Read more... )

Score keeping in baseball is weird.  BB means base on balls, K means strike out, 1b, 2b, 3b, hr mean single, double, triple and home run respectively… but then shit gets squirrelly… there are 9 players in the field, but there are 10 numbered positions.  The number for each position doesn’t really follow a pattern, it’s just on a key in the bottom ( Read more... )

the weather wasn’t as beastly hot as I expected.  We lost both games but it was because we beat ourselves with errors.  I had a hit, two walks and one hit by pitch (and one fly out to center).

I also had the most spectacular diving catch in right field that i came up with for a double play at second.  The runner thought, rightly so, that if ( Read more... )

Angie's List posted the W 12-1 after 5 innings. I crushed a triple and then a solid single following. One fly-out to left field. I hit really well the week before too. still dreading the baseball double header on Sunday.

Three hours of baseball is a lot of baseball to play.  Six hours is inexplicably three times longer than that.  This past weekend I managed to make a miraculous catch on diving line drive in the gap between 3 and short (I’ve never played 3rd base before) and then got out on an attempt to steal home on a past ball.  That slide re-ripped my knee open ( Read more... )

Perhaps she felt the need to set me up for failure because the Kitchen came pre-trashed and the refridgerator is pre-empties. So now it's 10pm on a Saturday, I've watched two movies and done about 300 crunches, drank a ( Read more... )

After a couple of outings on the bike I am pretty sure that the spark plugs are fouled.  this happens for a few reasons, usually a fuel mixture that is heavy on the gas.  I took the carburetors off when I got home and have a rebuild kit for each one in the mail.  A little bummed.

I also think I need to pull the engine and recondition the head/ ( Read more... )

Drove it to work this morning.

Fuck Yeah.

I finished the wiring on the motorbike on last night.  I was mostly done on Saturday and had the bike running, the headlights, the turn signal switch, the horn, the starter button, etc all worked.  I had some problems with the turn signals not flashing and the turn signal indicator only turning on in one direction (the old indicator was an ( Read more... )
