Another road loss

But first, life stuff. 😉

I’m looking forward to the weekend. Why?

1. It means I survived being alone in processing. It’s been a little stressful, which I never enjoy.
2. Bruce Campbell is doing a book signing and showing his movie in Sacramento on Saturday. And we’re probably going!!! 😀

Bruce was on Attack of the Show yesterday and we TiV0’d it for posterity. I think he was wearing a shirt that the hubby has. 😆 Anyhoo, I’ve adored Bruce since his Xena days and totally LOVED him as Brisco County Jr (which was airing on TNT long after it was cancelled). And yes, he rocks in the Evil Dead flicks. So this could be my chance to finally shake his hand and take a picture with him. Hail to the king, baby!

A Zito loss…

I woke up after a long dream about one Barry Zito. Why Barry?! In my dream, we took a picture together, talked about me missing Mulder, and his fashion sense. 😉 Then later he sent me a text message asking me to call him.

I have crazy ass dreams sometimes.

And then he had to go and lose his game today. Oh Barry!

GREAT GAME!!! I had a super time, especially the first three innings. 😉 The A’s suppled all that early excitement, giving us the rest of the game to chit chat. 😆 It’s nice to share the suite. I hope everyone had a groovy time.


Me before gametime…


The fancy box for the bobblehead…


me with my cousins

My cousins and I had been going to the Photo Days the three years previous but this year doesn’t have a Photo Day. Alas! This was the game we could all get together and this time the fellas came along with us. 😉

I’m working on my photos from the game. I’ll be lucky if I finish them tonight. Hopefully by tomorrow! 😀

[edit] The gallery is complete! 😀 Check out lots of photos from the game here.

I also forgot to mention that we watched the little kids run the bases. And while we watched, we saw this guy get taken down by security. We figured out that he was a) probably drunk and b) not with any of the kids running around with him. It was pretty sweet seeing the guy get pummeled to the ground. Violence for bad behavior can be a good thing? 😆

By the way, I LOVE MY NEW CAMERA. It’s so thin and it takes smashing pictures. Now I just need to figure out what to do with my old digicams. I still love my Minolta, but the other Sony could probably find another home. Hmmm…

A good Saturday win

Chavez is starting to pick it up. I love it. And go Byrnesie! 😀

I took lots of pictures at the Livermore Chili Cookoff, but I’m too tired to share them right now. Suffice to say that my new camera ROCKS! Oh, no chili for me this year. Just a little bit of beer and a hot dog. Hmmm, sounds like my menu for tomorrow. Rich Harden Bobblehead Day here I come!

Random shots from the new camera


The next book on my reading list…

I spent the last part of last night taking pictures with my new camera. I wanted to see how long the battery would last (I’m definitely going to buy a spare one) and how many pictures I could take on one charge. Decent so far. We might head out to the Livermore Chili Cookoff, so I’m going to take lots of shots there. And then tomorrow is the A’s game in our luxury suite. I’m DEFINITELY taking pictures there. 😆

Since Wah wanted to see an entry of my toys and such, I thought I’d go ahead and post some.

Streak halted…

Alas.

But first, some sample pictures…

My A’s bag

I got a new digital camera! I am such a freakin’ tech geek. The latest piece of technology is the Sony Cybershot T7, the latest in the ultra slim line. It’s almost as small as my Razr! So cool. I’m going to have fun with it this weekend. 😀
