swing, batta batta batta, swing!
I’m a little heatstroked… heatstruck… overheated… uh, toasty right now.
It may have something to do with the fact that I spent four hours at Nat Bailey Stadium today watching the Vancouver Canadians WIN!
(Unlike the last time I went.)
Honestly, there are few sports I don’t like to watch live… hockey, football, soccer, and yes, the boys of summer, too. Especially the Mariners at Safeco, but you take what you can get on a Sunday afternoon.
($6 tickets with our Entertainment book! HA!)
We had a sweet time. Like we always do. That’s because Catherine is fun. And I get to be fun by osmosis!
Now, the funniest thing about watching the Canadians play (because I don’t really follow single A ball) has something to do with this young man:
We used to see him on this show (yeah, yeah… we all have guilty pleasures!) His mom is one of the most successful realtors in Coto De Caza, CA and his dad is an executive (and former player) for the Oakland A’s. We recognized his name the first time we went.
Funny how the Canadians are the farm team for the A’s. Hmm…
Anyway, Shane Keogh ain’t much of a hitter — .165. But he’s a good fielder, a great base-stealer, and well, kind of a looker. And we saw him on TV before we saw him in the dugout, which is just weird.
But.
I’m tired, y’all.
And working on loving my summer.
So I better rest up.

that kid is playing in canada now? what happened to getting drafted by the A’s? i am ashamed to admit that i got totally hooked on that show too, though it was really, really disgusting and i felt dirty for watching it.

Ha! I was hooked on that show too! I didn’t want to admit to watching it, but when I would look through the listings and see it on I turned to it.
