So you want to go to the baseball game…

I had tickets to go to the game on Saturday with my Dad and his perpetual fiance. We’re supposed to get there early so I can get them dinner for Father’s day. He decides we’ll meet at 6:30. For a 7:05 game. We normally meet at 6:45. I don’t see how that’s early. Then he makes me walk to the farthest point outside of the stadium from where I park to meet him. So I walked there. I get a call saying that they’re stuck in traffic. So I wait. Then I get another call. Dad wants me to walk somewhere to meet him, but its so noisy I can’t hear what he’s saying. They ended up parking in the parking garage that’s across from my parking lot, so we could have met at the statue I wanted to meet at, which would have meant a lot less walking for me. So we meet and go inside. Now, at this point the game has already started. His fiance wants fish. Our seats are almost right where we walk in at left field. The fish is at over by right field. So we walk around the stadium to get food. We finally get to the seats (its now the bottom of the second inning. Grr.) and Dad leans over to put his beer in the holder and his sandwich tumbles off. At least it was his. But we’re there and watching the game. They are two young ladies behind us who are very loud and very shrill. Loud’s sorta okay. Shrill is not. And our team loses. But wait, the fun isn’t over yet. (We did have good seats, though) They want me to walk to their car so I can get some books. I said I would not be able to find my car if I was walking from the parking garage. They said they’d drop me off. I don’t know how they plan on doing that with the traffic being the way it is after a game, but I go with them. So we walk to the garage. Then we have to walk up seven floors. And they stop at a car that’s not theirs. Turns out its their new car and that’s what they really wanted me to see. Its a nice car. Big – a Pontiac Aztec. So they drive me to the parking lot. I manage to find my car without too much trouble (Praise the Lord) and I go home, tired and sticky but glad the day is finally over. So that’s the Saturday update. Look for more.

For good or ill…

Well once more a weekend comes to a close and I have to get ready to start another week. Oh yay. Yes, that was sarcastic. You could say that I’ve had a long weekend because I was off Thursday and Friday, but trust me, work would have been more fun. I had a gastroendoscopy on Thursday and a cloposcopy on Friday. Neither is any fun. Found out there’s nothing wrong with my stomach other than a small hiatal hernia. They took a biopsy on the cloposcopy and I’ll hear back in ten to fifteen days. *sigh* Now I have something else I have to not think about for another couple of weeks. If it comes back bad, then I have a larger biopsy done as an outpatient procedure. Sedation. IV. I had enough of that on Thursday. So that’s the health update. Other updates to come.
