Major League Baseball wanted that Detroit pitcher in L.A., and they want that team to stay in title contention every year.
The old-school newspaper reporter in me has definitely been around enough to know that the most trusted, reliable sources for news and gossip come from people who don't use their real names and post gifs to brag about having "tea." Totally how that works! 🙄
Closed out July with 45 miles walked, 14 pounds lost and 97 stories written. No coffee and off dairy for three weeks now. Flower pics from the month. 🌱 ☮️
Also Drewfus since springing up out of that wheelchair. #GH

Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the nightshift You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift 🎵 #moon
Oh the night life ain’t no good life But it’s my life 🎵
Not going to make this a weekly thing but I stepped on the scales today and am down to 157. I dug out some old shirts and they fit right again. Haven't had coffee in over two weeks now and am not missing it at all.
Shallowish post: I stepped on the scales twice this morning and have lost 10 pounds since the last time I weighed earlier this month. Finally back in that 160-165 range, and the walking I’m doing and cutting out all dairy have made a difference in how I feel.
There is a natural order of things and as someone who lived in the Birmingham area or market for 23 years and still goes back at least once every year, this does not feel like one of those things.
This is big: Birmingham’s WVTM-13, owned by Hearst and currently broadcasting NBC programming, will begin distributing CBS programming on Aug. 1. At the same time, Nexstar’s WIAT-42, a CBS affiliate, will become a CW Network-owned station. More 👇
My poor fur baby had to get some teeth extracted today along with her cleaning. The vet said she did great but she’ll definitely be missing her normal energy for a bit. One of the few times she’s letting me take a picture of her. 💕 #dogs
Steve watches #GH 12 hours later than everyone else on the timeline apparently: “A stalker?! Dare I say Trina is getting a storyline?”
Listening to the leaf blower terrorists hovering directly outside my apartment building for the last hour now. First combination of mowers/blowers/weed wackers started at 9 a.m. Just a typical Wednesday around here. 🙄
Start by admitting From cradle to tomb It isn’t that long a stay Life is a cabaret, old chum It’s only a cabaret, old chum And I love a cabaret 🎵
Name a film you've seen 4 or more times.
Step outside if it’s safe and the weather and skies allow it tonight wherever you are.

They really aren't recasting Spencer, are they? I don't know why (aside from personal theories), and I'll gladly eat my humble hat if I'm wrong about any of this, but yeah. Not with this guy and especially not the kid from Tell Me Lies... however that rumor even got started. #GH
General Hospital Comings & Goings: Grady Eldridge Cast as Music Executive Simon bit.ly/4yiTJDT
#GH is taking steps to right a big wrong by laying the groundwork for Valentin and potentially Charlotte to move back into Wyndemere. That castle should have never been left to a thug-of-the-month in Sidwell, entertaining as he might be. They need more Cassadines, but this would be a good start.
I’d just like to point out that Audrey was one of the single worst judges of character for anyone in Elizabeth’s life, especially when it came to men. If the argument is that Sonny gets too much coddling, then yes. But Audrey’s opinion, especially off-screen, still doesn’t mean much to me. #GH
Liz says her grandma Audrey and grandpa Steve would want Sonny on the board 🙄 #GH
In spite of the heat it’s a pretty time of year for the crepe-myrtles. 🥰 😍
The ESPN app icon should just be a mock QR code. Every day with these logins.
Story I heard once: my grandfather officiated a middle-of-the-night wedding. The fellow asked how much he should pay him. “Whatever you think she’s worth,” he said. The fellow reached into his pocket and handed him a $1 bill. My grandfather reached into his own pocked and pulled out 50 cents.
Britt's free to go but she says she has nowhere to go, no money, no car, no phone, etc. Joe hands her a $5 bill and tells her to pay him back later 😆 #GH
This has been my chief complaint with Sonny (and obviously Carly too). It’s do as I say, not as I do. Sonny always needs an enemy, which fit with Jax, Alcazar, and even Jagger. Recent examples (Nikolas, the other character RoHo played, now Valentin) felt and feel too forced. #GH
Especially given the messenger. One could easily suggest that he look in the mirror. #GH
