(Bump)
That's what happens on computer/geek/technical message boards to keep a message thread active. They're usually sorted by the latest post, so bumping a thread brings it back to the top of the list. I felt the need to bump my blog.
Not a whole lot has been going on. Oh, except that we got a new car for the eldest child over the weekend. (Did I get any pictures? No-o-o-o...) She drove it back to school yesterday. It made it - that makes it a successful purchase.
My Sweetie and I attended a tea tasting last week. I took pictures, and I'm composing a blog entry, but it's taking too long to come together.
The weather is "cold." I still didn't wear a jacket today, but the temperature dropped about 15 degrees from the time I arrived at work yesterday and when I left. Brisk is an apt description.
Oh, another thing distracting me from blogging is the Major League post-season. After nothing except one lone, playoff loss about 10 years ago, the Texas Rangers made it to the World Series two years in a row. They play Game 1 of the World Series tonight in St. Louis. I've followed them since the early 70's, watching them have 2/3 of a good season, with the other 1/3 always wiping out any success from the majority of the season.
That's about all for now. So, there.
Bump.
When we moved to Arlington we did not know a soul. Ranger tickets were cheap in those days. You could GREAT seats for eighteen bucks a pop. And you could bring an ice chest full of food and drink in. Brent would take me and I'd happily engage in chatter with every willing soul around me. I stood and sang and did the motions to every single ditty...I actually had the lineup memorized at that time.
ReplyDeleteI am over them since I can't make it my social outlet. OH, I want them to win, but I'm not a true fan. More of a hot dog in my hand talking with my mouth full fan...Brent is pretty stoked though. I had to shush him when that grand slam was hit the other night. The girls were in bed, we live in a moderate house and he started yelling and cheering...
He thinks I'm quite the party pooper.
Love me some RANGERS! We are super pumped at La La Land.
ReplyDeleteAndi, yeah, I was just a tad raucous when Cruz hit that. Plus, I must have stirred up some dust because it got in my eye and blurred my vision. Walk-off grand slams are generally saved for Hollywood.
ReplyDelete(And for the record, I'm not sure where the dust came from. You can't find any in our house. No, never. O;^) )
World Series??? ummmm. soooo. I assumed that this was going to be a college story about friends! :)
