Hello friends, and welcome to the weekend!
Last night the Mariners dueled in the desert with the fearsome Snakes, losing 3-1 in what Kate aptly described as a snoozer.
Speaking of sleep, I’m coming to you live after finally getting a decent night’s rest. I am a pretty picky sleeper. Not on purpose, mind you. I just need to be in a bed, in an adequately cold room with minimal light and sound (except my requisite white noise machine or app) and I will generally sleep fine. But I am not the kind of person who can sleep on couches, recliners, cars, trains, or planes.
