A big happy birthday to my sister Sheilah. Wow, the big THIRTY. Ye gods! Now none of us are in our 20s. I love you lots, sister. Hope you’re having a good day…
Yeah Jen, boo to the A’s offense! Rich pitched well enough to win, but alas! The A’s had chances to take the game, but didn’t. 🙁
Tonight begins the big series against Boston. Tim Hudson against Pedro Martinez. Should be an excellent game. We’re one game out of the wild card and four for the division. We need to win this series! 😛
4th Annual Mug Root Beer Float Day sponsored by Pepsi Thursday, Aug. 14… I’m reading the press release and I get to the following:
Among those who are confirmed to participate in the event are … CBS Survivors Lex van Berghe, Shawna Mitchell, Dave Johnson…
Hullo, I want to go now! LOL! I must confess, I thought Dave from the last Survivor was just a CUTIE! And a rocket scientist to boot. 😉 A smart, cute guy? Yeah! So, to all of those going, say howdy to Dave from me. LOL! Of course, my question is: What is Dave Johnson doing in the Bay Area? I know Lex and Shawna are from these here parts, but Dave? Anyone have an answer?
I should want to go to the game because of the possibility that Mark Mulder might be walking around signing and doing pictures. I’d give him a big tip for a hug and picture. ::THUD:: I just keep holding on to the thought that at the end of the month I will have my picture taken with Mulder, Tim Hudson, and Harden. Now wouldn’t it be super sweet if I could do one with all three of them? ::BIG THUD:: LOL!
Here’s the latest Ryan-related email I’ve received:

I wrote Brittany back. Here was my reply:
Hello there Brittany!
First off, I’m not Ryan. Sorry, I have no way of forwarding your email or your request for a picture to Ryan. I’m just a fan, like you.
Second, it’s not a good idea to send your real address to strangers online. There are some strange people out there who might use the information for bad things. Just a tip!
Thanks for writing.
Best always,
Valerie aka Kiari
Nothing harsh. But I must say, WHERE ARE HER PARENTS? I’m taking a leap here and I’m assuming she’s an underage type, early teens maybe from the way she writes. (Of course, I’ve had older teens and young adults write me with worse grammar.) I’m assuming she’s young because COMMON SENSE dictates NOT sending your real address to strangers online and I’ve found that the younger people don’t realize that right away. She’s just lucky that I’m not some deranged freak ready to pounce. Of course, her parents let her watch Murder By Numbers, which I believe was rated R, so maybe her parents think it’s cool to send a real mailing address to strangers. Who am I to judge?
