It was the talk of the town last night because it actually rained on a Dodger game in LA! They had to stop for over an hour, which never ever happens here! I'm glad you're a true fan that endures the weather for your team! I can’t imagine a baseball game in the snow!

(Ok, I was the only one with a fake ID...) You could only buy 2 beers at a time and they were $6 a piece, and you had to go up a narrow metal staircase to get to the concession stand. I go up, buy the 2 beers, pay the $12 and on the way down the stairs, fall on my ass and proceed to pretty much bounce down the rest, beer FLYING everywhere. Some deadhead standing on the stairs laughs, and - hey - I do too b/c it was hilarious. What was not hilarious? I did it TWO MORE TIMES after that as well, thus spending $48 for 2 beers ($36 all over the stairs and finally the $12 for the 2 that made it). Each time the same deadhead was standing there, practically mocking me, "You gonna make it this time? Huh huh huh huh huh." You should've seen my ass/thighs the next day - whooooa boy.

I love, LOVE, LOVE! this post. It is really beautiful, so well written, and of course, it is about a topic I adore. A. and I were watching the Houston/San Diego game and the scores for the Twins/Angels game came on. I so hoped you guys were there. I just bet you will be able to figure this out: A.'s cousin is one of the new players for Houston. He used to play for the Angels (for 9 seasons) and his grandfather threw the opening pitch at one of the Twins' games. Let me know if you figure it out! Yay! BASEBALL!!! Oh, Shauna!

We had snow, in the Pacific Northwest, last week. It was wild. I'm not an avid baseball fan (unless there is money on the table, gambling makes me a fan of anything) but going to a game always makes me want churros. Mother monkey, look at that snow.
