Saturday: A’s fell to the Royal 1-3. Grrrr!

We’re off to the Coliseum today. It’s Barry Zito Bobblehead Day! Must get my Zito bobblehead. My Huddy bobblehead is lonely! LOL

Jen got a Zito bobblehead from the Modesto A’s game! Not fair! Happy Memorial Day to you too Jen! (Go to her website and check out her photogalleries! I love her stuff.)

A’s over the Royals 4-1. Mulder got his 7th win of the season. 😀 Time of the game was 2:05. Those fast games…

Thursday: A’s fell to the Twins 5-6. Ugh, their first home series lost. And to the Twinkies! For goodness’ sakes.

I’m off today and all of the next week. Woohoo! Yes, a vacation after the vacation. I highly recommend it.

Work sucks right now. Layoffs might be on the horizon, according to the rumors floating around. It’s all a bunch of crap! We just getting by (and not even really that) and they’re talking about laying people off? If they start laying off civilian staff and using badge personnel to man those positions, that’s one less officer on the streets or watching inmates in the housing units. Is that what they want? Our jail population hovers at the higher end, we have barely enough staff to cover it, and everyone is getting stretched to unbelievable lengths. How much more are we supposed to take?

Wow, it’s officially already Thursday. I suppose I should do the Cancun thing for a bit…

Here’s what I wrote to my family and friends:

Our hotel was adults only and all inclusive. Twas nice not having children running around and it made for a much more carefree atmosphere. Friday night was WILD! Saturday night I stayed in while the others in my group went barhopping. Sunday was spent on the water in a trimaran for a jaunt to nearby Isla Mujeres. Monday was packing day and it was over all too soon.
Alas!

We did a lot of shopping, including on Monday, when we only escaped to the mall for some airconditioning! I actually managed to read a book (Saturday night). And one of the channels had porn on 24 hours! By Sunday, however, they were looping the same thing over and over. It was annoying. (Not that I was watching it, but you flip through all the stations over and over and you notice things. LOL!)

My favorite part of the long weekend was Sunday on the Don Diego. I loved being on the trimaran as we sailed the mostly calm waters. It was spectacular. It was a moment that I never experienced before. I loved it!

The first thing I bought were postcards. The last thing I bought was a Latin magazine called HOLA! because Carlos Ponce was on the cover. LOL!

There’s lots more, believe me! I’m saving it all for the online photo album/journal I plan on doing. 😉

Wednesday: A’s fall to the Twins 3-4. Blah! 😛
