May. 9th, 2018 10:49 pmIt's gotten warm in a hurry. Upper 70s, low 80s already this week, and maybe 90 this weekend. I guess I'll take it, but I remain a delicate flower.
Housemate's girlfriend won four tickets to last night's Bats game and gave them to Housemate who promptly distributed them appropriately. The game wasn't all that great - the Bats are a Reds farm team and that entire organization is a fusion-hot mess - but it was a lovely night at Louisville Slugger Field. Slugger is a heck of a nice Triple-A park, easy to get to and from, great views from just about everywhere. I think, though, that I like UofL's Patterson Stadium better. Patterson has the significant advantage of giving me views of three separate railroad lines, so I get time with two of my passions there.
I think I've seen last night's opponent play more often than the Bats - the Indianapolis Indians. For several GenCons, the Indians had Wednesday afternoon games, and I arranged to get to Indy early enough to take in a game. Victory Field is also quite nice, and just a couple of blocks from our preferred hotel for a number of years.
I'm starting to miss GenCon. Not so much the con itself, but seeing my Crafty Games family. I'll go up Sunday night to see Pat and Alex, and that'll be fun. Next year. Back to Indy.
Went to Liberty to see Mom, since I won't be able to on Mother's Day. We had a good few hours talking and running errands together, and Dad got me to figure out a way to store copies of his digital logbooks so that he can easily access them. Taught him how to use and access his iCloud account, and that was a good win for both of us.
Found out that my doofus brother is filing for bankruptcy again. Dude's making up around 80 large a year, maybe more, but ... fuck it, I don't even know. Ultimately, it's outside my light cone, and as long as it doesn't affect Mom&Dad, it will remain so. I just don't care.
