Baseball

This weekend was pretty much completely centered around baseball. Friday night Nathan, Eli, Garrett, Ruben, and I took the trolley down to Petco to see what would turn out to be the only Padres win of the weekend. I ended up getting duped on the hot dog deal but the game was really good and we even got some bonus baseball. The "Friarworks" that followed the game were nothing to write home about, but were still pretty cool, especially after a win.

Saturday we ended up playing catch and a game of over the line at the park for about three hours. After the park, we headed to Boomer's to hit up the batting cages...even got in a little DDR session. As day turned to night, we headed to Ranch 99 for some dinner. The spicy garlic shrimp I got was really tasty but I wasn't really in the mood to eat a ton of it.
I won't even go into detail about the stupid theme party that followed, because it sucked, just as predicted.

Sunday I got up early and went to look for a new glove so I could sell Lucas my other one. Then, a surprisingly large group of people gathered at West Hills Park for a full nine inning legit baseball game.

Other than the sunburn and my arm feeling like it's going to fall off, fun times.

Winner winner chicken dinner!

So I won poker again last night. I seem to be getting better at reading other players every week. Maybe after I get a couple more wins under my belt, I'll hit up a casino and play with the big boys.

Heat wave

Wow what a scorcher! This weekend felt like the middle of summer. While I might be ready for the warm weather, it was a little intense to dive right into 98 degrees afternoons...even got myself a lil baby sunburn. Galatic bowling, jam, Antonelli's, basketball, Sonic, Earth Day, Sushi...Good weekend!

First place?

What a great first week of baseball. I don't want to get ahead of myself but, it was just nice to watch Padres baseball without wanting to throw my remote through the TV. The best part is, the Mariners did the exact same thing, both teams were predicted to be the worst in baseball...we'll see.

I am Hollywood

In case you missed it, I won poker on Thursday...Finally! I guess I picked the right time to do it since the pot was the biggest one yet.

Friday I had the day off, so Eli and I headed up to Hollywood to see The Get Up Kids at The Troubadour. Honestly, one of the best shows I've seen in awhile, like being back in 10th grade. We got up there a few hours early so we killed some time with the freaks and struggling actors on Hollywood Blvd. After the show, we made the 20 minute drive over to JJ's to meet up with Flo, Nathan, Garrett, Calvin, and his girlfriend. After some good eats and a long drive home, we attempted to camp out at Sonic for the grand opening, even though it wouldn't open for another 2 days.

Saturday Eli and I went to Vanessa's baby shower and then to Ryder for quick hello before heading home for the night.

Sunday was awesome! Everyone got up early and decided to play some baseball over at West Hills. The best part was we actually had enough people to play a legit game...my hitting could use some work : /

Hopefully all of the sports fun will continue, I've had a blast!

-NO ALCOHOL (Stone, I'll see you in May)
-Gym minimum of five days a week
