Sporadic

I'm a busy man these days, huh? Let me catch you up on what's going on. I've been working alot 49 hours this past week. I got my apartment on Friday and spent the rest of the weekend moving in/setting up. We're getting there, so that's good.

St. Louis was fun though, so that's good. We got to see 2 Cardinal's games, though neither went that well for the home team...or my personal effects. Cardinals first. They never got it going in either game, and this was against Colorado! It was hard to watch. The first game can be blamed on the bullpen. As soon as Wainwright left the new pitchers went 5-6 batters before recording an out....terrible. While all of this was going on in the 7th inning, the meth addict in front of us was going over board. Throughout the whole game she was becoming more and more incoherent. How do I know this? She tried to join us in whatever sort of conversation we were having. Personally, I never had any idea what she was saying. My sisters friends Jessica and Kaity were so disturbed at one point that they had to walk away for our seats. Lucky for them, they came back just in time for the lady to be lying down on the bleachers with her feet in the air...shoeless feet. Tell me that isn't hot. The cou de gras came when she turned around with her eyes glazed over and spit on my friend Marc and I. Yes, she full out spit. I was just happy she didn't throw up because she was definately going on that route. We left to wash our hands in disgust. I heard that while we were gone she was asked to leave and as she was led off by her husband she couldn't handle the stairs and fell down to take a nap. Awesome.

The second game was closer, but the Cardinals still couldn't do it. We did get to see some amazing defense though. There honestly could have been all 5 web gems coming from this game alone. Power was there too. Over the weekend we did get to see many many homeruns. Two or three were right in front of us in the bleachers, so that was nice. The bad part about this game is that after I got my food (chicken stuffed nachos fulled loaded boooooooooooooooooy) and drink I was halfway through my drink when the old man in front of me put his hand almost inside my cup. He was just trying to put his arm around his grandson, I get it, but come on man. What are you going to do? That drinks cost almost 5$...so I drank it. Go ahead, judge me.

Other news from Dallas. Had a men's league softball game on Monday. We won 5-3. We're a team of Juan Pierre's. For the non baseball fan that literally means singles hitters with no pop. Warning track power. Heck not even that much power. We had, I don't know, 8 or 9 hits and only one of them went for extra bases. O well, our defense is solid. I had a highlight reel SportsCenter top 10 play of the night. I was playing third base and the batter hit a foul towards me but it was heading towards the fence. I knew I had to hustle since it was moving kind of fast so I sprinted over while tracking it. I took a second to find the fence and judge the distance. At the last second I leaped onto the fence, reached up, and grabbed the ball as it was about to go over the fence. Duh na na Duh nana. It felt awesome. Wednesday we had a major storm. Tornado strength storm. I was hungry though and I wanted to get some bacon wrapped shrimp from this one restaurant north of town. We literally drove straight into the storm. It was bad...really bad. Could not see more than 30 feet in front of the car. Hydroplaned a few times. Luckily we were driving in my truck which weights over 5000 lbs. so we weren't affected by the wind. By the time we got to the restaurant their power was out and we had to just sit around and ride out the storm. So that was a nice adventure.

Ok guys, I'm real busy so don't expect much out of me. I'll write as much as I can when I can. Sorry for no links today, but at least I wrote one.

Question: How many pounds in a ton?

I think it's 1000, which is why I like to say I have a 5 ton truck. Don't look up the answer until after you answer it!!!!

Astros come to town June 16th
