Tonight, I lasted all of one-and-a-half innings. Was fielding a center field hit when both quadriceps went south. Pain pain pain. I was able to walk around in the outfield for the rest of the inning, though, barely.

My at bat scored us one run, but I could barely make it to first, and had to have a substitute runner for the rest of my play. Soon after, Amber took me home to a hot bath, Icy Hot, Gentleman Jack and a heating pad (all, by the way, is strictly verboten for this type of injury).

Tonight, I've added a few Lisp blogs to my subscription. People I've read about and seen around in quite a few different fora:

• Chris Double, who I recognize from the Io mailing list
• (s e x p)
• Cooking with Lisp

I'm excited to be learning Lisp again (it's about time again), and I've got two systems to play with: OpenMCL and SBCL. Both seem to integrate nicely with Emacs via Slime, and both seem to work with Uncommon Web.

Last night Amber and I attended the Seventh Annual Attack of the 50-foot Reels presentation by the Richmond Moving Image Co-Op. Premise is simple: sign up and get one 50-foot reel of 8mm film (about 3 minutes), shoot it, editing only in-camera, and turn it in. No one gets to see the results until the festival in the fall.

Last year, the results excited us enough to want to participate (which we did not do), and this year was no less exciting. I'm not certain that we'll participate next year, but thinking about it is awful fun.
