I got this Rick Leach photo and had it framed in my bedroom when I was a little Ann Arbor kid. Just got it back from my folks downsizing.

I ran into the bartender from my Monday night run group there, who I’ve also seen at local cyclocross races, so I guess we have a special bond now.

Started my Detroit Tigers game attendance in San Diego tonight, where they took the L. I haven’t seen a Tigers victory in person for 2 plus years now, but I have tix for at least 4 more games this year- 1 in SF, and 3 in Sac.

In a legislative hearing tonight, and a witness mentioned an ultramarathon race in passing during testimony, so I naturally spent part of the debate looking up the race, the route, and past results. I’m easily distracted.

Multitasked a fantasy baseball draft while drinking wine at an Oscars party. For Tigers I got Valdez, Torres, Dingler, Carpenter, and Vest. Most near the end of the draft. We’ll see how this goes.
