I’ll write more about the Diamond Level experience when I get home Wednesday night. Let me first just say IT WAS AWESOME!!! I even drank a couple of alcoholic beverages. (Hey, they were free, so why the heck not?) Oh, and I saw so many baseball player behinds. The drunk ladies behind me even commented on them after they were totally lushed. 😆

I promise more details later!

So, it’s May 3rd (aka my bday) and guess what I’m doing tonight? I’m going to the A’s game!!! 😀

Okay, it’s not in our luxury suite, BUT rather we’re sitting at the Diamond Level. Know where that is? It’s right behind homeplate and the only way to get there is through the visiting team’s hallway (or something like that). I AM SO FREAKIN’ EXCITED!!! How the heck am I going to work knowing that in mere hours I will be sitting in the second row of the Diamond Level seats watching my A’s play.

The game is on channel 36 here in the Bay Area, so all you A’s fans out there check it out and you might see me and the hubby. If a good soul happens to record the game, email me so that I can snag a copy from you. 🙂

Alas, I only have my camera phone, so my pictures probably won’t be as groovy as with my regular camera. Oh well. I’ll still take a bunch and perhaps Buzznet or Textamerica them during the course of the game. I’m so goofy like that. 😆

Diamond Level seats certainly take the edge off of being another year older. 😉

THANK YOU HUSBAND MINE!!! 😀
