Me, Josh, his best friend Dylan and Sloppy Joe were having a guys night out this past Saturday. We started off with a huge dinner at Buca, then hit the super chill cigar lounge across the street. Sloppy Joe had a midnight curfew from his new girlfriend, so that left just me, Josh and Dylan. … Continue reading Guys Night Out with Meatballs (part 2)

Mean Girls (part 2)
So I was telling y’all about Maryville High’s #1 mean girl, Ashleigh Renfroe. She was a typical mean girl from what I’ve heard other people say about mean girls at their schools. In a lot of ways she could have stepped out of the movie. I know I’m a dude, and so I wasn’t the … Continue reading Mean Girls (part 2)
Mean Girls (part 1)
I’m not sure how Joyce ended up with the DVD of Mean Girls, but she suggested we watch it one night last week. I think someone told her it would give her insight into what it was like when I was in high school, although the movie came out in 2004 and I graduated in … Continue reading Mean Girls (part 1)
Guys Night Out with Meatballs (part 1)
The Saturday morning after me and Keaton visited Travis in the hospital (that was September 7) I got a call from Josh, the Parrots’ captain, asking if I wanted to have a guys night out with him and his buddy Dylan that night. Dylan’s Travis’ older brother; I got to know him this summer when … Continue reading Guys Night Out with Meatballs (part 1)
A Different Kind of Hospital Visit
I’ve told y’all a little bit about the Parrots’ leftfielder, Travis. He’s the younger brother of our captain Josh’s best friend Dylan, born and bred in San Marino, a very wealthy community just south of Pasadena. He’s 22…and, to all our surprise and shock, he tried to kill himself over Labor Day weekend. He said … Continue reading A Different Kind of Hospital Visit
Boxing with El Tigre
Joyce has been looking over the blog and said that y’all may be wondering how I can eat like I do (especially the ice cream) and still look good enough in board shorts for a major artist to start sketching me. Part of the answer is that I’ve always been able to eat a lot … Continue reading Boxing with El Tigre
The Return of Monica (last part)
So me and Joyce ran into Monica and her psychiatrist fiance in a trendy sushi place last week. I can handle an ex-girlfriend meeting a current girlfriend, but I was nervous that Monica would reveal that I was dating both Monica and Joyce at the same time for a few months last year. Lucky she … Continue reading The Return of Monica (last part)
The Return of Monica (part 1)
Ok, so I basically don’t like sushi. It’s not that it grosses me out or anything (a dude who likes deviled kidneys with breakfast isn’t gonna be grossed out by raw fish lol); I just think it’s pretty boringass. It’s a piece of fish with white rice. Woo hoo. You can spend eighty bucks at … Continue reading The Return of Monica (part 1)
Maryville 2016 (part 2)
In the fall of 2016, after the season was over in Hickory, I went back home for a few really shitty months. I had to adjust to the fact that I wasn’t going to be a pro ball player; I did it by being an asshole. I got a job at the Gap in Knoxville, … Continue reading Maryville 2016 (part 2)
Maryville 2016 (part 1)
Since I’ve started telling y’all about some of the less great periods in my life, I thought I could write something about another of those times that seriously sucked for me. I’m talking about from between my last game in Hickory and when I moved to California, September 2016 to right after New Year’s 2017. … Continue reading Maryville 2016 (part 1)
