Guy’s Night Out (part 3)

Last Saturday night, I met up with some buddies from the Parrots, including 1st baseman Sloppy Joe, who was all depressed because his girlfriend dumped him. Once they all went off to a strip club, I was by myself at the Volcano, where I stuck around after closing so Keaton could give me a ride … Continue reading Guy’s Night Out (part 3) →

Absinthe (part 1)

So y’all remember Christmas at Joyce’s – when we had Keaton and Mrs. LaSalle over for dinner? Mrs. LaSalle is a super cool old lady, but she’s over 80 and doesn’t cook much anymore. So she decided to take me and Joyce out last week, since she still “owed” Joyce for Christmas. (I never understood … Continue reading Absinthe (part 1) →

New Year’s Eve with Joyce (part 1)

An Opportunity (part 1)

Ok, so y’all remember Carter? He’s the dude that Keaton saved from a fight a while ago, and who talked to me at the Volcano the night of that crazy 18 inning game in the World Series. When I met him that second time, he was all interested in how I’d been a ball player. … Continue reading An Opportunity (part 1) →

My Birthday (last part)

For my birthday last week, Joyce gave me an amazing present – a necklace just like the one Cody Bellinger wears under his jersey. She also took me out to an awesome steakhouse, decorated the house in a baseball birthday theme, and got me a Dodgers ice cream cake with 26 candles. She also had … Continue reading My Birthday (last part) →

Last Friday at the Volcano (part 1)

View Post I’ve been busy with Joyce and work (we’re short a supervisor at the store since Sasha decided to go to school full time), so I haven’t had too much time to hang out at the bar Keaton works at. I like the place – it’s way better than Rocco’s, the beer is decent, … Continue reading Last Friday at the Volcano (part 1) →
