Apparently, the Twins didn’t want to risk it this time. I have been to three Minnesota Twins games this season so far. They are 0-3 during those games. Of course, they are exactly lighting the world on fire when I’m not around, but that’s another story. I had tickets to go to the game on [...]

Can we have class outside?
Posted: 26th April 2012 by Aaron Hagen in UncategorizedTags: nice, outside, ryan mcgaughey, weather
“Professor says no.” Of course, in this case, “Professor” was in fact, Managing Editor Ryan McGaughey. I will respect his decision and sit at my desk like a good student. But part of me is outside. Part of me is on the golf course. Or mowing a lawn. Or drinking a beverage on the porch. [...]
It’s hot in here

“It’s getting hot in here, so hot, so take off all your clothes I am, getting so hot, I wanna take my clothes off” Don’t worry, my fair readers, I’m not actually taking my clothes off. Not that I haven’t thought about it. But my point here isn’t nudity. It’s merely that it’s really hot [...]
A healthy meal?

I have lived in my current apartment for nearly five years now. I moved in at the end of May in 2007. It’s not April of 2012. In that time, I have acquired some pretty interesting items. I had a dirty bath mat (which I have since thrown out). But one of the big projects [...]
I’m an idiot

I feel like it’s important to share that right away. I’m an idiot. We all do things that aren’t very intelligent. I know quite often I’ll look back on something I said or did and wonder, “What the hell was I thinking?” I had a moment like that last night. I am a Netflix subscriber. [...]
I have been waiting for some time to reach this milestone. The question wasn’t if it would come. It was merely a matter of when. I first had to decide when to actually be happy. At No. 1? Or 100? Or 1,000? When was it enough. Being a sports fan, it seems like 3,000 was [...]
Not one of my prouder moments

I don’t think I can tell you how bad I feel about this. But it happened. All I can do is learn from it and move forward. This story begins a few weeks ago. The managing editor, Ryan McGaughey, was wearing a plaid shirt. It wasn’t his best choice in clothes. I made the comments [...]
Size does not matter — to me anyway
Posted: 19th April 2012 by Aaron Hagen in UncategorizedTags: bed, size
That’s right, it doesn’t matter. It might to someone else, but it sure doesn’t make a difference. Of course, I’m talking about the size of mattresses. I had a couple days off this week, where I was able to go and see a good friend and my parents all in the same trip. Well, I [...]
Photos from the weekend — start to finish

Here are a few photos from the “sports extravaganza” weekend my friend Mark and I had. It started with the Worthington High School choir singing the National Anthem Saturday afternoon and ended with the drive home Sunday night.
What a weekend
Posted: 16th April 2012 by Aaron Hagen in UncategorizedTags: baseball, basketball, sports, timberwolves, twins
It’s funny how it works. When you’re looking forward to something for so long, it’s hard to believe it’s over so quickly. That’s how this weekend was for me. I had been targeting this weekend for quite some time. Why? Because I hadn’t seen my former college roommate in way too long. And this was [...]
