The Ballad of Harbaugh and Haarberg (SOC 9/30/23)
« on: September 30, 2023, 07:24:59 AM »
It's been weeks of unusually beautiful weather in Columbus. Mild, dry, just call us San Diego North. I'm about to take my daily walk on the waterfront, too. No cooking today - the wife is sending the kids to her parents and indicated very strongly that she expects to be Taken Out To Eat. Still haven't figured out where that will be, though with no OSU game I can relax and google restaurants.

high of about 90 here in NW Iowa - global warming

tee time at 10am

should be home by kickoff of the Husker game

pork chops are thawed but I have a party to attend about 6pm
will be food there.  Hosted by a Hawkeye fan, I assume that game will be on somewhere
outdoor party with kegs and a band, big shindig!

If my Huskers upset Michigan my party might start early and I may need to stay at home and eat pork chops.

Dual soccer games at 10 this morning.  I’m taking my daughter to her HS game.  The wife is taking our son to his rec league game.  Perfect fall morning here.  Clear skies and in the mid 50s.  Supposed to warm up to about 75 today.

I have a mountain of laundry to fold and put up later, but I’ll do that while watching football and sipping on something.  WVU plays TCU at 8 tonight.  I’m expecting a loss, but a win would be huge.

Great thread title.

An afternoon volleyball today which is rare for our league.   Time of year where I have kids out because of tryouts for club teams and basketball.  

Then heading to Bloomington for Nebraska @IU volleyball match.    Tickets $5 compared to last night in West Lafayette where it cost $100+ to get in the door for N at Purdue.  

Will be relying on radio quite a bit today for football.   Glad Brewers wrapped up division already so I can relax and enjoy events today w my kids.

Badgers don't play, but probably not a boat day with the forecast calling for a lot of rain.

Italian Beef is on the docket for dinner tonight.

A quick 9 holes on the docket this morning at the local pitch & putt, as a warmup/practice for my round tomorrow as I haven't played in a few weeks. Been trying to hit the range a ton since my last lesson, and feeling good about how I'm hitting it in general, but nothing replaces a little on-course time. 

Then off to a matinee at the theater to see Les Miserables. My wife has seen it once before but I have not, so it should be fun. And by "fun" I mean I do know that it's not exactly a happy show lol... It won't be like when we saw The Book of Mormon a few weeks ago...

Steak night for dinner. I got a gorgeous 1.5# ribeye for me and 9 oz filet for her from our nice butcher shop, with some sauteed mushrooms, a wedge salad, and an excuse to open a really nice bottle of red.

It stormed all night here in MSP. Turns out that a house built in 1993 has considerably more flexibility than one built in 1948. Our house was shaking like dice on a Vegas crap table every time there was a blast of thunder. 

11AM games are hard enough to get going for. It's even harder when one hasn't slept. 

Very humid day here in the Cities. Dew points in the 60s and highs in the mid 80s. 

Organizers of tomorrow's Twin Cities Marathon are advising to not start if you're not acclimated to running in high heat.

Here's hoping you bust their chops

Mertz being #3 is shocking considering how bad he’s been in previous years. 

Sheduer at #5 is insanely impressive considering Colorado has zero running game to speak of, a horrible OL, and Sheduer throws the ball like 50 times a game.
