Lucky enough to be there when That Kid Sal Frelick got the call from the Brewers.
Me, @RochieWBZ, Birdball players/staff and 85% of the people of Lexington, MA at what Sal told me would be a “small get together”. Congrats. You’re a World Series Champion!
Four years ago I wrote my inaugural poem The Hill We Climb. Both when I wrote it and performed it, I did so while continuously reflecting on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and Coretta Scott King’s legacy. I was (and am) blown away by how my words reverberated around the world; if anything, it proved to me that we honor King’s dream, by daring to dream big, and by, most importantly, daring to dream together. Only then will the loving fantasies of our better nature transform into reality. The work and fight for the dream persists, and what’s more, it is not just a fight, but fate—that perhaps we are as destined for this time as it is destined for us. What a worthwhile, powerful calling only we can answer. Here with you in the hill and the climb, and whatever light lies beyond, whatever light lies within.

“Oh, I interviewed Matt Ryan today.” - BFly, nonchalantly and hours after it happened, as though interviewing Matt Ryan is something that everybody does.
For those keeping track at home, BFly is the interim* men’s ice hockey SID so we are ALL IN on this team.
*INTERIM. I cannot emphasis enough important that is for me😅
@marekcornett YES. I think it should track everything. It’s been a huge adjustment for me. Pre-kids: if I didn’t work out or move my body, I’d feel sluggish. Post-kids: if I don’t work out, I’m still constantly moving and just feel perpetually tired🙃
