Went to the M's/Yankees game last night with my honey. The Mariners' current skid means I don't feel bad writing them off for the year and rooting for the hated Bombers instead. 'Course, the Mariners end up winning on a walk-off homer, 6-5. It was a great game, made all the better by the discovery that my vortex friends Steph and Brandon happened to be there, we happened to make contact, and we spent a couple hours drinking and gabbing with them after the game. So great to see them again - we talk pretty regularly via email and text, but haven't seen them face-to-face in a couple years at least... and we're seeing them again next weekend because we'll all be (serendipitously) at Wild Horses for Dave. They looked great and it was like putting on a comfortable old sweater or something; just picked right up where we left off last time. Love those guys.
