Hello, Interwebs. I continue to plod my way through this extended but relatively mild black hole episode, which has not abated nor gotten any worse (well, not much worse) over the last week or so. Part of my attempt to right the ship has been to consume less news than usual, so I'm only catching bits and pieces of the latest outrages and will need to catch up some later. Meanwhile, I've been reading, bingeing a rewatch of Orphan Black, and looking forward to baseball, which once again is starting ridiculously early thanks to stupid Manfred and his stupid extra playoffs.
Anyway, I'm hanging in there. I didn't post anything about the week's umpiring as there wasn't much to say about it. I have four more games to do over the next couple of nights, so maybe there'll be a report after that.
The world keeps on turning.

Hey, sorry I have not checked in with you myself. I too have been in a funk and contemplating my own and others mortality (real light stuff, I know). Is there a name for a late/mid life crisis? The other day your nephew said "I wish I was born in the 70s or 80s so I would not have to grow up in all this political hatred and misinformation." I have told him in the past that it did not used to be like this, you could be friends with a Republican and vise versa because it was not so charged with hate, and you could discuss your differences of opinion using FACTS. Do you have AppleTV? you could watch Shrinking, and a couple other good shows.
