NCAA sucks!

I think Stevie Ray Vaughan was the greatest guitar player that ever lived, Dolores O’Riordan was the greatest singer that ever lived, and Blas Elias is the greatest drummer that ever lived.
But if you asked me what my favorite band is, I would have to list a hundred different music groups.
Astros just got their asses kicked again. Verlander will not be in the World Series.
I’m rooting for the Phillies now. NLCS is tied. Game 7 will be tomorrow.
Advertisement really works, dudes. I kept seeing these Arby’s cheesesteak sandwiches while watching the games and I had to try one tonight. Had a DoorDasher bring one over. Damn good sandwich, and just right for watching the ALCS Game 6.
Astros just lost. The ALCS is tied now and one more game to go. Pulling for the Astros.
PS, today was not a good day to be a Lion.
Lost track of time, but think it was at least two hours of playing the guitar. I re-stringed it recently, replaced all the Regular Slinky strings with Power Slinky strings. I really, really like the Power Slinky strings. The Power Slinky stings are thicker and stronger. I’m confident that no matter how hard I strum, these strings will not be breaking any time soon.
That was Miggy’s last game. I’m a bit emotional about this.
Wish I had someone to play catch with right now.
The Tigers finished their season in 2nd place.
The Road to Sugar Loaf, by Eric T. Reynolds, is a novel about the Women’s Suffrage movement. Largely set in the Flint Hills of Kansas, we follow a group of friends as they fight for a change that was once thought impossible, women’s right to vote. It was a hard, long battle.
Eric also understands the disability struggle. Some of the things said in reference to Kathryn stung me personally.
What I really want to see is more work by people with disabilities about life with disabilities. I’ve seen very little of that. I feel that the disability community has less of a voice than any other group, and that’s what I’ve been fighting to change.
While The Road to Sugar Loaf was really about Women’s Suffrage, I appreciate that Eric’s lead character was a person with disabilities. I would like to encourage him to continue with that pattern and perhaps write about living with disabilities on a deeper level.
I liked this novel very much. It was a fine read, and it stirred my emotions quite a bit.
