Gathering Thoughts: Jays are 1-8

April 13, 2017 by Joanna Cornish

What even the fuck?

I have no words except I'm not sure it's good for my mental health to keep watching this. I'm always impressed and slightly mystified when people say that baseball is soothing and helpful to their emotional well-being. 

A seemingly endless string of well-pitched games missing one big hit to turn a loss into a win, but falling short. 

No luck. No hope. No joy. 

Pain in my heart she's treating me cold where can my baby be Lord no one knows.

I am feeling some kind of way.

All I have now is soul music. 

Purists might not acknowledge Aretha as a blues singer, but so what? Even if The Delta Meets Detroit is at heart another way of raiding the Queen of Soul's catalog for niche-market sales, it's a convincer.
