I dreamt about mobile phones last night. Ye gods!

Saturday: A’s over the Rangers, 10-8. 102 wins for “my boys.” 😉 Today, in about 2 hours, the last game of the regular season begins. Go Zito! 😀

Sneak a peek at the splash page for .:: The Mark Mulder Zone ::., brought to you by walelia.com. 😉

The A’s over the Texas Rangers, 3-2. Mark Mulder ended the regular season with a record of 19-7. Groovay! 😀

VERY MANY CONGRATULATIONS to the A’s!!! Woohoo!!! 😀 I am so HAPPY for them. The A’s won over the Mariners, 5-3 for their 100th win of the season. MOST WONDERFUL!

Read all about it:

A’s savor dramatic clincher
A’s rally to win AL West title
Schlegel: Wild day for wild AL West

The A’s are killing me!!! Grrrr! First a bad day at work (and you won’t read that from me very often) and then the A’s lose another one to the Mariners, 2-3. Tim Hudson pitched a good game and the bullpen BLEW IT! Aaaaack!

Articles of note:

Howe’s cool hand guides the A’s – a very nice article on the A’s skipper…
Chavy loves you too! – a very nice article on 3rd baseman Eric Chavez. “We’ll support him, and wonder about him, because he plays the game as we like to think we’d play it: not just for ourselves, but for the glory of baseball — or whatever is left of it.”

So, this bad day at work. Work SUCKED! I had too many out when I went to dinner and when I came back, about 70% of that came back. Are they trying to kill me?! GADS! I ended up leaving a lot of work behind because they’re getting weird about overtime and I couldn’t stay. Oh well, I say! Not like I enjoy overtime anyhoo. 😛

Reading the Chavy article, I stumbled across a Giambi quote. “Swing like an All-Star, party like a rock star, fuck like a porn star.” Ye gods…

Tuesday: A’s fall to the Mariners, 7-8. What a waste! Barry Zito left the game with the lead, but the A’s let the Mariners come back to rally and win. NOT GOOD! Bad A’s boys! 😛

But I still love them. LOL!

Oh, forgot to mention we saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding on Sunday night. And there was a trailer for Star Trek: Nemesis. Woohoo! Looks FANTASTIC! I can’t wait to see the movie. I might have to take the day off. 13 of December. Oh, Friday the 13th? Oh well!

Why is it still so WARM? It’s autumn now, for goodness’ sake! And I’m driving the car with no air-conditioning. Grrrr.

I can’t believe I didn’t post yesterday! Ye gods!

Well, the A’s didn’t play yesterday, so perhaps that explains the absent post. How sad is that? And what’s going to happen when the season ends? [sigh]

I’ve decided that one day, someday I’d like to end up living along the coast somewhere. When we did the 17 Mile Drive in Monterey, I realized that my ultimate happy place (besides being anywhere with the hubby and baseball games) is along a misty shore, with the crash of the waves my music and the salty breeze my air. Something feels so right about being in that moment.

Of course, if I were a millionare, I would definitely have a house along the 17 Mile Drive. 😉

Today the A’s take on the Seattle Mariners up in Seattle. GO A’S!!! 😀 Oh, and read TEN BURNING QUESTIONS FOR MARK MULDER. What is with him and country music? I wonder if he was tortured with it as a child. LOL! Oh well, everyone has to have a flaw. 😛

Okay, I took a quiz. 😛

You aren’t interested in David Duchovny because of his looks or even the X-Files. You are all about his talent with the craft. You enjoy his unique blend of playful wit dashed with soft dramatic flare, and admire the easy way he handles his roles. You’re probably interested in acting yourself, or another aspect of Hollywood. You might even view yourself as an apprentice of his art. Good luck with that, he’s a tough act to follow.

David Duchovny fan you are!
