YEEHAW, BASEBALL GOES ON!!! I cannot tell you how relieved I am. I thought it was a dream! I almost cried. (I would have cried if the strike had happened.) Baseball goes on. My A’s take the field tonight with Tim Hudson on the mound. LET’S GO A’S!!!

They’re down to the wire. I haven’t gone to sleep yet. No, I’m not keeping track of the baseball thing. I’ve been playing Text Twister at Yahoo. Man, it’s addicting!

I learned something new a few minutes ago. If you go to Yahoo or Google and type in my name (kiari, walelia, or valerie) along with Mark Mulder or Barry Zito, you’ll get this site! Ye gods! I should tell people that when they ask me about my website. LOL! I guess this means that I talk about them a lot here, eh? 😛

Speaking of Mark Mulder, he’s set to be at the 15th Annual Labor Day Weekend Collectors Show in San Francisco. I WANNA GO! I want my Mark Mulder moment. I’ve had my Barry Zito moment (twice, if you count the first time I met him). Now it’s time for Mark Mulder. All I want is a picture *with* him. Is it too much to ask? Should it be so difficult? He plays in Oakland, for goodness’ sakes! Yet here I am, the season at the home stretch and I have yet to say howdy to the guy. 😀 Like I’d say howdy. I just want a picture with him. Oh, and okay, an autograph too. That would be nice. That would be very nice indeed…

Whimsical Wednesday: A’s over the Royals, 7-1 for their 15th straight victory. Barry Zito improved his record to 19-5. 😀

Will they? Won’t they? I’m ever anxious!!!

A’s over the Royals, 6-4. That’s 14 in a row! 😀 Tomorrow, Barry Zito takes the mound. Ye gods! Go Barry!

Work was all right tonight. Towards the end of it, the young gun gray shirt (I should really find out his name, eh? LOL!) came over and gave me an update on the A’s game. Such a nice thing! And when the game ended, he came by again and told me the score…

Marvelous Monday: A’s over the Kansas City Royals, 6-3. That’s 13 in a row for my boys! Woohoo! 😀

Work was surprisingly smooth for me last night. Note, I said “for me.” 😛 I know that for others, it wasn’t quite as easy. But when I can do all the work myself, I count that as a good day. 😉

Pictures! Melanie’s 40th Birthday Surprise Good times for all. 😉


a picture from last night…

A’s over the Tigers, 10-7. The A’s were down 2-7 at one point, but came back to win it! They keep their 2 game lead in first place. 😀
