Bryce Harper the Conqueror
I played video games a lot when I was younger.
Most of them were sports games, and every now and then and I’d sprinkle in some Halo or Max Payne (a game only made more alluring by the protagonist’s shared first name).
But no game has received more hours of my dedication than MVP Baseball 2005. I won’t go into why the game is still the best baseball video game ever made, but I still own an...
So glad I did
See, it’s not like I didn’t mean what I said when I said I’ll put my money where my mouth is, and I put my money where my mouth was.

– - Krug w/Sunset Rubdown.
Phone call last night reminded me of this line. It’s a sentiment that fits for the person on the other line and myself. Always has been. Funny thing is, the call came a month later than the lyric predicts.
