I had quit drinking the Mtn Dew and was off caffeine, then bought a case in SC. Haven’t been able to sleep well this week.
Wednesday: drank the Dew in the afternoon, which didn’t help that night. Wasn’t feeling great Thursday morning so I drank the Dew on the way to the gym, and ate a few crackers to settle my stomach. Had a good run. Rest of the day mixing sparkling grapefruit juice that M had left behind. Mixing with my usual KoolAde.
JFBC has a 40th anniversary celebration. Bryant Wright came back for it. I missed it. I worked until 6 pm. Got home right when C was leaving for small group. Ate leftover chili. Watched Modern Family and Only Murders in the Building. It’s getting good. Comedy, Drama, Mystery, Music. Star studded cast. Best show on TV.
Thursday: a vendor sent in Pizano’s pizza for lunch. Very good. Like the pepperoni & bacon pie (below) better than the lasagna pizza (above), which was also good. Eric, Rodney, Renee, and Sherryl were out so it was just Brad, Angie, Rachel, Joy, and me. Also cheesecake and cannoli.
Spend part of the afternoon moving desks. Got a bigger desk but slightly further away from my buddies. Might not be as chilly.
Worked past 6:15. Got gas on the way home. Stir fry for supper. Watched Georgia State at Coastal Carolina. No jets crashed into the stadium. GSU QB Grainger put on a show.
Braves won. Magic number for home field now seven.
BREAKING: cuna hit his 40th home run of the season, making him the first MLB player with 40 HR & 60 stolen bases. Will probably be the first 40/70 player by next week. Hit #40 trying to look like a Milwaukee Brewer.
My stomach wasn’t feeling great again this AM so I went with the Mtn Dew Zero and saltines again on the way to the gym. Lifted weights.
Had a good week getting shed of some of my many bobbleheads. Traded one for a Braves sweatshirt. Met up and sold 9 to one collector. Might sell more to him in the future. With Christmas coming I need to offer more up for sale, and post several sneakers and shirts on eBay.
There is an interesting documentary about Mike Veeck on Netflix. White Sox owner Bill Veeck’s son. Mike left the Sox after the Disco Demolition dibocle, later finding himself as a father while operating the St. Paul Saints.
Reading the novel How to Walk Away, by Katherine Center. A young woman is paralyzed and most deal with her injury, her broken family, and a drunk fiancé.
Hopefully we’ll just work around the house tomorrow.

WILLIE MAYS [SABR Bio] is baseball's all-time leader in outfield putouts, with 7,095. He was the first player to post back-to-back 30/30 seasons. In 1956, Mays had 36 HR & 40 SB. In ’57, it was 35 & 38. He missed doing it a 3rd consecutive year by only one homer. From 1959 through 1966, Mays drove in more than 100 runs each season.
Scary stuff: leaders at the UN just made a 7 year agreement to implement a single Global Agenda. Includes a 17 point plan. Dogs and cats living together. Related: Wales has implemented a nationwide 20 MPH speed limit. Wonder if the usually-isolationist China and Japan are on board, or if US taxpayers have to pay even more trillions to pay the way for the rest of the world.
