I got my new fitness tracking smart phone device up and running, finding it neat again, to get my hands on a new piece of "tech". (NOTE: I can't believe I had a phone that small once and was dazzled by what little it was, knowing what more it could become)
There can be zero confusion regarding this. Tonight's win in, indoor, golf dome, slo-pitch redeemed my entire day, and may have righted a listing ship, bent strongly the wrong way in a swirling emotional hurricane.
I would further like to suggest that I hit a rather triumphant home run tonight that was ruled only a double, after flying majestically just under the curvature of the dome as a whole. Where it finally struck the back wall being the only point of contention, as I suggest it struck above the line, about five feet out from the 90 degree angle that makes up the back wall. The umpire took an interpretation that the ball never touched the wall and instead came to a natural conclusion of its arch the 5-or-so feet short or drilling straight into the fabric, at the very end wall.
I Will Be Interpreting It As a Home Run for the purposes of establishing my ball playing skill.

After thinking about it for awhile, after someone told me they say a Porsche on Kijiji for well less than it was worth, because the owner couldn't figure out how to get into the dead battery, I emailed him to let him know it wasn't that hard to get to the battery in the front trunk.
I had a calm, measured response to the Bank of Nova Scotia representative that had to handle my file, fourth person, as I seek to renew my mortgage.

Do not lock your house with only a door knob lock. Someone that knows what they are doing can get through that in about 15 seconds, with hand tools and won't even look like he's struggling. You'd be robbed blind and it wouldn't even look like forced entry.

When I should have been, and arguably was somewhere near that, in a moment when all appeared lost, I serendipitously started a conversation that completely took me from that moment. Instead of desolation I found myself somewhere else I wanted to be. And it didn't feel as catastrophic as I expected it might be. While things are not anything even approximating good, I don't feel completely devastated. This is a scenario that I gladly accept, when the alternative is as bleak as it would seem from the outside.

According to reports, the iPhone 7 is coming out in September. My current phone is feeling the pain. Should I get a new iPhone 7 when it actually hits the streets in Saskatoon?
How come no one seems to offer root beer squishes?
