May. 16th, 2012 08:43 pmThanks to David Gallaher for finding his original of the photo I was using as my icon here so I could return to the my-hair's-on-fire picture.
Thanks also to Adrienne Foster for letting me have her tickets to last night's Giants-Rockies game. Wow, does she have good seats. It turns out I should have volunteered to my co-workers that I had a seat going unused; one of them might have been interested in coming to the game, and I could have recovered the rest of Adrienne's ticket cost.
( Photo follows )
Alas, the game did not go the way faithful Giants fans would have liked, with the Rockies winning 5-4. It very nearly went to extra innings (Giants had the tying run in scoring position in the bottom of the ninth), which would have meant I got home even more after midnight that I did manage. Because I was traveling on my own, I could get down from the upper deck, out of the stadium, and down to the Caltrain station relatively quickly. It's not easy, though, and I had only five minutes to spare before the express (skips stops to San Carlos) left.
I didn't get to bed until sometime around 1 AM or so. Fortunately, I could come in a couple hours late today, although I did need to work later this evening to make things come out "evenly," you might say.
