Just My Luck

Diamond DogsSo, Jason and I were lucky enough to go the Mariners game the other night and sit in the Diamond Club. Someone that he sold a house to got four tickets and decided to take us. If you have never sat in the Diamond Club before, it is a lot of fun. It is right behind home plate but the best part about it is all the food and drinks are included. We had the buffet before the game which was actually pretty good for a buffet, but the real treat is the food you get to order at your seat. We were all stuffed but who can pass up the chance to order mini corn dogs?? No one I know. Anyway, enough about the food. Wouldn't you know, just my luck, I got up to use the bathroom and there was a bench clearing brawl on the field right in front of where we are sitting! Sexson charged the mound but I think the best part about it is he threw his batting helmut at the pitcher. All the while, I am in the bathroom. So goes life.

Reasons to love Seattle

There are many reasons to love Seattle, and right now I am trying to think of them all as I ignore the very chilly weather in May.....so much water around there are tons of places that you can get a cocktail with a view, you don't have to ever get that dressed up to go anywhere, fish & chips, the Pike Place Market early in the morning, the Viaduct, the Huskies in their glory days, and so much more. Oh, and of course, the fact that opening day of boating season is celebrated like a National Holiday....just another excuse to get drunk on a boat, rain or shine.
What a day!
End of the evening
