It is a bit ironic I end 2017 with a blog post titled ‘Stopped drinking’ when I am definitely going to drink my face off tomorrow night as I kick in the new year. But as we roll into 2018, I will be limiting my consumption of alcohol, starting with a sober January. One of my […]
I have come to realize that I have a hard time giving up on people. I see the good in them, see the potential connections we could have, and refuse to give up on it. I meet someone and I immediately start thinking about how this person could fit into my life, both in the present […]

The Chicago Cubs game against the Milwaukee Brewers was postponed tonight due to rainy weather in Chicago. Jake Arrieta was slated to start tonight and I was very excited to watch his follow-up start to his no-hitter. But alas, I will have to wait until tomorrow night instead.
