We stopped by the game between the Modesto Nuts and Stockton Ports. I say stopped by because we left in the middle of the game. It was COLD! And I have to go to sleep soon. And it was COLD. Brrrrr!

I bought a hat that says “NUTS BASEBALL.” It’s red and it rocks! It goes well with my new Cardinals jersey. I took a picture of myself in it, so I’ll post it during the weekend sometime. I’m toying with wearing my jersey tomorrow since Mr. Mulder pitches and I want to be supportive in spirit. 😉

Yeah, so I’m dorky.

*** Just in! The Stockton Ports beat the Modesto Nuts, 4-3. Bah on Modesto, but cool for the Ports.

I’m going to bed now…

But no pictures yet of the jersey. I’ll take some very soon. 😀


Bobby Crosby in his “baseball players aren’t as hot as movie stars” commercial…

When I saw this commercial, I busted up. It was such a cute thing. Nice smile. 😉


Shots from yesterday’s game: Byrnes, Bobby, Zito, Swisher

The Cardinals won today. Woohoo! I think I get a postgame alert for them, but nothing so far. Bah! We listened to the game on the way home. XM radio RULES! 😛

And in other personal, baseball related news, the hubby and I are owners of luxury suites for six A’s games this season! Yeehaw! Our first game is the 17th of April. I’ll let you all know how it goes. My life is GOOD. We must stop spoiling ourselves. LOL!

Zito during today’s game…

Okay fine, they lost. But it’s only one game. Right? 😉 I’m not too worried.

Alas for Bobby Crosby though. Upper back pain? 🙁

In other baseball news, we’re going to the Nuts game on Thursday night. Yeah, the Modesto Nuts. Most of the time I think it’s hilarious. But then I realize that if I want to support the team, I’m going to have to wear Nuts gear. Bah!

Day one of the diet went all right. Still need to eat dessert. 😉

Quickie before bed…

Tomorrow begins the 2005 season for my Oakland Athletics. They open in Baltimore. I hope I remember to TiVo it. Bah!

And tomorrow I begin something I’ve never tried. A diet. Ye gods! Oh well, at least I’ll be eating more during the day. Maybe I won’t be so hungry at lunch time. 😉

Time for bed!!!

And so time passes…

listening to... “I’ll Take You On” – Howie Day

I’m not sure what I should say. I know that many of us mourn the passing of the Pope, but I am only sad that he had to suffer so much. I truly believe he is in a much better place, the Heaven he envisioned welcomes him with open arms. And so I wish him safe journey. I’m sure he’s already there…


Is it the hair?… Byrnes, Haren, Kielty, Zito from today’s game

Today was the last day of preseason for my A’s. And they ended it on a good note. 🙂 Oh, and Rich Harden is locked with the team until at least 2008. Good times, good times. Love it!

The “Old Man” aka Barry Zito commercial is HILARIOUS! I saw it at the official A’s site. I’m sure it looks better on regular tv. Zito is a NUT. I say that with much affection, of course.


New shots of William Gregory Lee

I love being a show off. Aren’t those shots just lovely? I filtered them (film grain), but they still look good, eh? 😉 If you’d like to see the original pics, you can check out the gallery section of William Gregory Lee Online. Thank you to the one who sent them to me…

I created a new personal email address at my domain because I am so tired of getting JUNK at my email addys. I’m hoping to wean everyone off of my other infested email addresses. We’ll see. Online I’m going to switch to one of my gmail accounts. I just need to figure out which one I want to pass out here at Moonlit Jazz. 😛 Maybe I should just go with MoonlitJazz. LOL! Yeah, that’s it! 😉 (Please note the new email addy here…)

Anyhoo, after I emailed my family and friends, I received a few emails back. It was great to hear from all of them! Heard from my favorite fella (you know, besides the hubby and Mulder), my aunt in Seattle, a former co-worker, and an online buddy. I also got mailer daemons back, which led me to search online for a particular person. She was one of the “priestesses” in our Temple of Ares days and I discovered her blog! If she doesn’t mind and if she gives me permission, I’m going to add her link here. And even if I don’t get to add her, I’m still going to read her. LOL!


Matchups for game one on Tuesday…

One more day, then it’s BASEBALL SEASON! Am I excited? HELL YEAH! 😀 I’ll be back to blogging every game day. Groovay!
