Hello, Neglected Blog

I end up writing enough over on blogdowntown that I just don't have a lot left in the typing department.

A few odds and ends worth mentioning:

I had sent back my Soma frame last month thanks to a crack. I picked the bike back up today, with a new frame (does that make it the same bicycle, or is the frame the heart of the bike?).

Last Saturday I played my first baseball game in six years, going 0-2 at the plate (ground ball to the 3rd baseman and a flyout to left-center) and splitting some time between left field and catching. Second game is tomorrow at 2pm.

Sunday afternoon Kathy and I are heading down to San Diego for a few days during her spring break.

Eric Richardson lives in Atlanta, Georgia, where he works on payments infrastructure for Cash App.

Past lives involved streaming audio for Southern California Public Radio, running a hyperlocal news site for Downtown Los Angeles, working on custom mapping code, and writing Perl at the Jet Propulsion Labratory.
