Kotsay had a great day on the field and at the plate. Niiice! 🙂
During the game, we watched a little bit of the Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. I couldn’t help it, I cried a little while Dennis Eckersley gave his speech. I was remembering my first days of watching baseball while I listened to Eck. Awww…
KING ARTHUR
I enjoyed this movie. Clive Owen is way cool. Keira Knightley didn’t really say much in the film. 😛 But it was a good movie. Much better than I expected…
Baseball
And right now, I’m actually watching the Yankees/Red Sox game on ESPN. It’s in HD and after yesterday’s drama, it could be interesting. 😉 So far, it’s the top of the 1st and the Yankees are up 1-0. Blah!

Of course, it’s not on tv and I had to “watch it” online. Oh well.
I miss watching Dark Angel
We watched a bunch of Dark Angel episodes today. We got to the “Zack” episodes. 😉 It’s interesting seeing the shows again, knowing how it will end. Suddenly the villians don’t seem as evil as they did the first time.
I know it’s a little odd, but I’m just to lazy to do real screencaptures. So I put my digital camera to use and kept myself occupied during the game. 😉
Mulder at the top of the third, one out and one on…
Mark did well throughout the beginning of the game. Even though he gave up those two runs in the 3rd, he managed to stay strong.
Bobby!
I don’t know what it is, I love just saying Bobby when Crosby is at the plate. He can look tough when he wants, eh?
Byrnesy!
This was after Byrnes hit his two run homer to tie the game. Twas niiiice.
Zito.
Sucky picture. But what do you expect from a tv shot? 😉
The Chavez Babooshkah
I must confess, I want one of these. But I don’t want it enough to stand in the sweltering sun a couple of hours before game time. I’ll try and get one at the next cards & collectibles show we attend. 😉 Or I can do the eBay thing. LOL!
Facing loss number three of the year…
I do hope the boys do better today. They’re not on tv for us. 🙁 Oh well!

Alas. Poor Mulder. Ah well, it was going to happen, eh?
A working Friday. Blah.

SV – Eddie Guardado (18)
HR: Oak: Crosby (14). HR: Sea: Boone (14).

Bummer! 🙁
Twas a weird day at work. Most of the office went to the Giants/Padres game. I did have a few things to do, so I guess that’s good. 😛
Tomorrow is Friday! Groovay!
Oh, and my happy meal toy from yesterday was a Barbie. Maybe I should have asked for the boy toy. LOL!
Hatteberg just bunted. Lovely.
Yes, so it’s the bottom of the tenth. I suppose I’ll be up until the game is over. It’s 5-5, A’s visiting the Seattle Mariners.
First drive alone
So I drove to work for the first time. (The husband drives us to work, but he was sick today.) I took longer, of course. But I seemed to get the slow traffic! Same thing going home. Blah!
[Kielty hit into a double play to the 3rd baseman. Grrr!]
Work was fine. I’m learning more and more. It’s a good thing. 🙂 For my lunch hour, I hit the mall and had a happy meal. 😛
