I've been without a cell phone for a week, and it's really crazy how much it has screwed up my day-to-day life.
Maybe it's being in media, but the amount of stuff I need it for is really mind-blowing. It's like I've lost half my brain.

Happy birthday to 3rd Degree's (and The Ticket's) legendary Peter Welpton. He's been fighting the good fight for soccer with me for damn near 30 years.
