Evie Day 22,470
Good morning, and a happy Monday to you all. Today is 24 March 2025.
We had a weekend.
It was pretty typical first weekend of spring, with a dinner with an old family friend on Friday, some planting of seeds to get our veggies started, and some other family stuff. Lisa and I are still maintaining our broadcast news boycott… it’s not really a boycott, we just can’t stand to see Kumquat Pol Pot get any more attention.
We did watch some sports over the weekend, but no basketball. We’re still mourning the fall of the Jayhawks in the first round. Saturday evening we watched some women’s soccer as the Kansas City Current traveled to Washington, DC to play the Washington Spirit. The Kansas City squad won 2-0.
Baseball is around the corner with opening day another week or so away. It’s frustrating around here. The Kansas City Royals are the local team, but their broadcast package is lousy. We’re on DISH network, but apparently the Royals made a deal with Direct TV, so the only alternative is to buy the streaming package. I’m not that dedicated a baseball guy to spend a ludicrous amount of money just to watch baseball. I can watch other sports instead, or even (gasp!) go outside to get stuff down around the property.
I’m always thankful for the Sunday afternoon gaming sessions with the guys. I enjoy the banter, and it’s an enjoyable experience to slay an imaginary baddie every so often. It can be cathartic.
I’ve got work to focus on today. There’s also a learning day for my training peers. I signed up for two sessions, and one has already been canceled. I might have to poke around and see if there’s another I can get in on.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
