Skipping Work for a Baseball Game

Work & Play
Did a little playing at work today, which was nice. Some of the guys in the office have season tickets to the Greensboro Grasshoppers baseball ("A" Marlins affiliate). There was an 11:00 game today, and nobody was using the tickets, so Heather, Megan, Teresa and I all went up at 12:00 to eat lunch and watch part of the game. Turned out it was "Guilford County School Day" and there were about 4,000 kids there. It was like being inside an elementary school cafeteria. There was this constant buzz of kids talking, and of course nobody was paying attention to the game. The Grasshoppers had put the kids in certain sections and had kind of "hijacked" the seats we were supposed to be in, so they told us just to sit wherever we wanted. We wound up sitting on the first base side, a couple rows back. It was a nice day, so we didn't sweat too bad. We got to see about 2 innings is all. Just as it was time to leave, they finished the 7th inning, which wound up being the end of the game because they had a double header and apparently they only play 7 inning games when they are playing double headers in "A" ball. We (or at least I) had a good time. I felt like I was in the middle of "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."

After work I didn't have anything that HAD to be done, which was a nice change. Just spent time with the family.

Llano Update (Cheeto's Brood)
Cade and I went shopping at Lowe's for a present for Kelson's birthday. It was fun. We just kind of took our time and looked around. Nice to have an "off" night for a change.

We invited Shena to go to the baseball game with us, because she worked this morning in the office. She didn't want to very badly...allergies and she was afraid mom would be getting tired of the boys. Point is, I asked her to go, so hopefully I'm not in as much trouble for going as I would be had I not offered.

Arellano Update
Swapped cars with mom tonight. I have to go to Charlotte tomorrow, and wanted to take the Nissan to save gas. Mom will be driving Marcos' car, Shena mom's.

Christensen Update
Today was Bart & Cherie's Anniversary. Shena said it was snowing in Idaho today (mid-April...go figure) which they thought was a good sign, since it was a blizzard on the day they were married. Congratulations Bart & Cherie!

Daily Report
LAST NIGHT:
Sleep: 11:00 - 3:30 - 4:00 - 7:30 - Kelson woke up coughing and gagging. ^Took a bit for me to get back to sleep after.

TODAY:
Breakfast: None

Lunch: Foot long hot dog, Dr. Pepper - Had to drop $8 for that. Expensive lunch for so little food. It was fun anyway. We didn't pay for parking or tickets, so that made it ok.

Dinner: Left over stove top and chicken from last night, wheat bread, water. Had a couple cookies and milk just before bed.
