In Minnesota: A’s fall to the Twins 5-6. Grrr!
It’s hot again today. Good thing we’ve got air conditioning. Wonder what the bill is going to be like. LOL!
We went to the library today. It’s nice! Twas once Breuners. Now it’s a place of books and more books. I checked out SARAH by Orson Scott Card. I read up to page 92 while we were there. Hey, it’s good to read! 😉
Now I’m off to transfer some songs to my PDA, which has a new 256MB SD card. 😀
In Minnesota: A’s fall to the Twins 3-4. 😛
I love air-conditioning. It’s way warm out here in the Central Valley. Here in the house, the temperature is just right. I went outside this afternoon and it was oppresively hot. Yikes! I can’t imagine what summer will be like…
I think I need to stop with the whole shopping thing though. I keep buying things when we go out. Ye gods! The guy at Borders is starting to look familiar. 😛 And Lane Bryant is such a wonderful place. I love all the clothes. They fit me! 😀
I’ve revamped and updated walelia.com! Go look. Tell me what you think. Next up, my pictures!
Jen, my fellow A’s gal, you’re fast becoming one of my favorite people. You actually read my weblog! So sweet, so kind. 😀
I know, how could I not know about Byrnes being a local boy? I suck! I’m sure I read it somewhere before, but it just didn’t click or something. Doy!
And here’s another good Byrnes article. Byrnes too difficult to ignore
Am I getting sucked into him? Yeah, just what I need! LOL No, I just like the way he plays. He’s always so energetic out there. He makes it exciting for all of us watching. You’ve got to love and adore a guy like that. Oh, and he’s got nice arms. 😉

10. Thought-Provoking Question of the Week: You work with someone who is not in the habit of bathing regularly. The smell seems to be getting worse and worse! Would you: 1. try to do something about it, or 2. try to grin and bear it? If you said 1, what would you do? I try and grin and bear it. I think I’ve done it in the past. 😛
Hey, here’s a good read: Batting Around with Eric Byrnes
Goes to show how much I know about him, I didn’t realize he was a local boy. Hmm, I might be able to use that for my story. 😉
Alas! I didn’t get my Barry Zito Cy Young Bobblehead. We got there too late! (Almost two hours before game time is too late?!) Jen, I hope that with getting there at 8am, you got yours? Lucky! And it must have been scary, if all the bobbleheads were gone by the time we got there! If I have to be there that early for the Mark Mulder Bobblehead, then so be it.
And, as it seem to be true of our nature this season, we left the game early, when it was still 3-0, Royals. We were in the parking lot when Ramon Hernandez hit that solo homerun. Bottom of the ninth, we were at Fry’s Electronics. With one strike away from another loss, Durazo hit a two run homer to tie the game. The winning run came off of a Mark Ellis single in the 10th. We were wandering around the store by then. 😉
So, A’s over the Royals in ten innings 4-3. 😀
