ljtourist came over last night to see the boys. Left is last night (Biggie). Right is July 5 (The Smalls).



He agrees with me that they are growing closer in size. The Smalls is catching up. I may have to change his nickname to The Equals! Nope. If it weren't for the collars, I'd have lost track of who's who a long time ago. Biggie's on the left here and The Smalls is on the right.



After kitty time, we went down to the street to get a burger. There's a funky place next door - Sluggers - that Frank's never been to and I haven't been in ages. It's a sliver of a sports bar. Probably 12 feet at its widest. It goes the length of the block and two stories up.

However... Frank still hasn't been and I still haven't been in ages... they were closed! We ended up at a place up the street where I had one of the best hamburgers ever on the face of the earth also cooked rare like I like it and Frank had salmon that he said was also delicious. So, thanks, Sluggers! The place where we got these treats is a way too loud restaurant where we've been before. It was also way too loud then but both times, the food has been amazing and different (not my burger but Frank's salad and salmon sides) and the service excellent. I wish they had a quiet room.

Today's baseball game is a perfecta. It's a 4 which is my best baseball time. And it's against Toronto which has all kinds of fun excellent young players we have not seen before - several are the sons of great baseball players. And, finally, the asshole announcer is moving back over to radio and the good guy is moving from radio back to TV so I do not have to mute the TV and stream audio on my phone. Finally. I'm looking forward to the game for sure.

Between now and then is a question mark. I'd really like some Trader Joe's cake but enough to get in the car and go get it when I really don't need anything else? It's cloudy and so maybe I could manage a walk over to Daiso to get some backup Stickie's and a couple of other things on my Daiso list but they do not have air conditioning. It truly feels like Japan there in that Japanese dollar store and I do not mean that in a good way. :) Or I could just cool my jets here and knit which would be fine but lazy.

I do know a shower is next.

Maybe The Smalls will surpass Biggie in size, and then their names will be ironic.

I bet you can get takeout the next time you crave an amazing burger. Or maybe one of those delivery services is partnered with the loud place.

OR and I just thought of this this morning... if I'm by myself, I can just pop on noise canceling earphones!

I hope the Jr. Jays put on a show for you! The first three guys in our batting order tonight are Bichette, Biggio and Guerrero Jr.

Speaking of baseball, did you see/hear/read about that shellacking the Yankees got last night? I'm no fan of Cleveland's but anyone who does that to the Yankees gets props from me!

[susandennis]

You and I see eye to eye on the Yankees. The only thing sweeter than the Yankees losing is the Yankees losing BIG!

Our broadcasters have been hyping your first three guys all week. In a season when we have little to take joy in, we're borrowing some of yours.

And... you can listen in on where we root! (which now never fails to crack me up thanks to you)

That was particularly satisfying to this Red Sox fan, especially as that was the same Indians team that a patchwork or Sox pitchers had held to one run on four hits the previous day.

It's neat to see your friend w/the kitties. I wasn't really sure how big they were until a person appeared in the frame! :) It would be cool to see some pictures of you with the kitties, too. I looked on your Flickr but couldn't find that combo. Just a thought ...

[susandennis]

You are right. I have none of me and the boys. I will have to fix that.

Yay!
