The last day of the regular season

I slept in a little this morning, finally getting up just before 9 AM. It was another beautiful day today, even nicer than yesterday. Kelly came back over at 11 AM and we immediately headed up to Baltimore for the last Oriole’s game of the regular season, which turned out to be against the New [...]

Harper’s Ferry and L.A. Story

Saturday was a fun day. With clear skies and mild temperatures, Kelly and I drove out to Harper’s Ferry, West Virginia. I was there once before but I got to see a little bit more of it this time. The town is about 70 miles away and we had a pleasant drive out there. I [...]

Lunchtime workout

I had to interview someone at work today and as soon as that was over, I headed over to the gym for my lunchtime workout. Today was arms and shoulders and I managed to get three full groups of workouts in. I lifted a total of 12,960 lbs. which is more than double the 5,400 [...]

Smallville and The Office

So I stayed up last night to watch the season premiers of Smallville and The Office and both were great. It looks like it’s going to be another exciting season for each. And can I just say that I am actually happy that Jim and Pam finally are together and dating. (I know that vickyandnorm [...]

Yankees clinched a playoff spot

After all of the criticism about their terrible start this season, the Yanks clinched a playoff spot last night. It’s looking like they will end up the AL wild card, and play the Cleveland Indians in the divisionals. At least they won’t be playing the Angels. And besides, the Yankees went 30-11 against the AL [...]

Lower body workout

Up at 4:20 AM and into the gym at 5:50 AM. The commute was a little strange. Normally, the second train of the morning is a Yellow line train that I can take all the way into work. The sign said yellow line, but then switched to Green line. When the train arrived, it said [...]
