Does Anyone Know How Many Triples David Ortiz Has Career-Wise?

This has been what one could characteristically deem "a good summer for baseball." The Boston trip was beyond pleasant (I have a feeling these brief weekend exodousi are going to become addiction-level before the end of these golden months) and the Red Sox game was the greatest sports experience of my life -- well, that's a bit strong, but it's up there on the Tim's Favorite Sport Experiences chart, which, I swear to God, does not actually exist in any physical (or mentally specific) way.

I'm so far behind in pictures that I'd like to post that I figure I'll just give up on the whole idea of posting them at all. I've got pictures dating back to the White Mountains and even the trip to Rogers Centre that I'd like to caption, but the backup is really just providing a mental block for me to post new picures, so...I've lost interest in that sentence. Moving on.

Back to the main point at hand, I am quite (excessively) pleased that Kevin and I have managed to arrange so many major league baseball outings for ourselves (2) in such a short amount of time and for such a (relatively) small amount of cash. Kevin expressed an interest in going back to Rogers Centre for another Toronto game and I'm certainly inclined to tag along. We're not even limited to the Tuesday games since the idea of Tuesday discounted tickets is an evil sham.

In other news, I've been watching a bit of Curb Your Enthusiasm lately, now that I've gotten past the first (horrible) episode that prevented me from watching any others. The only problem is that as a result I'm finding myself feeling extremely socially awkward as a result of exposing myself to too much Larry David. It's just like when I was watching all that West Wing and I felt like a brilliant, political professional for a while. Hopefully it will pass. I'm sure the next television show box set I dive into will color my personality in a new direction (that was the worst mixture of cliche phrases I've ever encountered).

I know it's usually my intention to at least make an attempt to avoid mentioning Sandstorm-related news, but I'm really (extremely, completely, 100%) nervous about its completion. First of all, the editing is extremely slow going -- even by what I thought was my conservative estimates -- and to add insult to injury, Ms. Starkweather forced me to return the cameras, so I'm not sure exactly how we're going to finish up those scenes we left hanging. Poor planning all around, I guess. I should've gone to Kevin's to edit today, but I had so much work stuff to take care of it wasn't really an option. I'll figure something out.

The following is merely a list of items I need to complete and is entirely, purely for my benefit and my benefit only. I strongly encourage the average reader (and by that I mean readers who aren't me) to cease their role as a reader and move on to other tasks instead of reading the following:

1. Seek out new camera possabilties.
2. Continue to edit (and finish extremely soon-like).
3. Record and dub the audio from everyone.
4. Collect the necessary sound effects to complete the sound track.
5. Film the remaining scenes.
6. Create the liner notes for the new Shade album.
7. Eagle Project.
