I'm in St. Louis
and should probably be in bed, but I'm not.
cruised in this afternoon and headed straight for the convention center when i arrived
it's a quick stop from the airport train
and I landed in a place different but very similar to all of those in the past
and the familiar faces start falling into place.
That means that I'm back to drinking about a bottle of wine (plus a glass or two) a night
and working about 18-20 hours a day.
woo hoo!
this year will be quite strange.
more budget cuts then I was aware of previously
and it makes me wonder if I'll have a job next year or not.
so I'm planning on bringing my A game
and if that isn't enough
I think that I may be doing well enough next year with my business that it will be an easy shift to survive without MLB
and that will probably mean that I will have the bandwidth to head off to 4th of Juplaya or Nowhere or whatever
if the MLB thing runs out.
I found out today that Joey will not be joining us this year.
he's my drinking buddy and I will miss him.
things are shifting and we are having to adapt to that.
I'm crashing out at Lohr's house here in SL
and it's nice to have a place to stay before my hotel comes through.
I remember him now from somewhere
and we realized tonight that we've been running circles around each other for years.
It's super late here and I should be up and out and there by 9am
so I'm gonna crash on this couch and catch up on some sleep.
On the flight from Phoenix to SL I dreamt of a bunch of things
including that SL was covered in snow
and I was worried that my clothing wouldn't be enough to keep me warm.
but it's warm and balmy here, although today seemed very grey and overcast
I'm guessing it will be in the 90's in no time.
MLB ASFF . . . let's do it again, shall we??
