Feeling Better, but Traffic Makes Me Sick

Going home last night instead of attending the BASFA meeting was probably the best things to do, as I fell into bed early and felt better this morning. Or at least I did until I ran into heavy traffic on the way to work again. It looks like the five extra miles added to my commute is, on the average, going to add 20-30 minutes to the travel time every day.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

It would take a near miracle for them to make the playoffs now, but I've attended at least one San Francisco Giants baseball game every season since I moved to the Bay Area, and the only way for me to keep that streak alive is to attend during their final home series. Therefore, I plan to buy a View Reserved ticket (see seat map) for the final game of the season, Sunday, October 2, 1:05 PM against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This is also Fan Appreciation Day, with a bunch of prizes to be given away. Winning the 2006 Toyota Avalon XLS would be pretty cool, but winning a round-trip on the California Zephyr would be nice, too.

Anyway, tickets are $24 plus whatever "convenience fees" they tack on. I plan to buy the tickets on Wednesday. Anyone interested in joining me should contact me directly.

Incidentally, the San Jose Giants won the California League championship last night. Go Giants!

Bearable

I couldn't resist this one. Blame lyzard13 for calling it to my attention in her journal.
