    I'm walking the world's largest 10K race, in which my son is running. After that, we're retiring to my brother's where there will be bbq and alcohol aplenty. Return home around 8 PM to watch muni fireworks. Collapse from exhaustion after that.

    Work. And look for a new place to rent. And possibly go to more of the trials.

    Tonight: Either a day-early festival with fireworks, the local minor league nine with fireworks, or the local short track, which is probably on life support.

    Friday: Cookout at the in-laws. Oh yay.

    Saturday: Day trip to Braves-Astros. Makes up for Friday.

    Talk with the wife, who's in South Africa for a month and a half. Possibly engage in phone sex. Weep. Movie marathon in Times Square.

    nicely played.
