One of the many things about me that disappoints Lloyd is my lack of baseball understanding. I’ve watched it plenty, but it just goes by me like traffic. Tonight, though, was the best night ever. Our friend Samith does computer-y stuff for the Pepsi people in Lincoln, so they let him use their Lincoln Saltdogs club-sky-box thing . It was AWESOME!! There were about twenty people there – Samith & Stephannie, family & friends. The box was equipped with a cooler full of ALL THE PEPSI YOU COULD DRINK! Have I died and gone to heaven?
The best part was taking a wander around the park with Brad, a fellow baseball idiot. We tried taking a picture of the people in our box, but it’s on his camera. (Check out www.bradaptation.com to see if he posted it.) At the end of our walk, we came across the sofas where the grounds crew hangs out. After much agonizing, I finally asked if I could get my picture taken with them. (There’s no way to make that sound like I was smooth and cool about it. I wasn’t.)
Thanks, Samith!
Lloyd here: From the “I’m not making this stuff up” department, see if you can match each of these quotes with the correct baseball-idiot:

____2. At least it didn’t go into overtime. | B. Lauren |
____3. They scored four points. Does that count as a home run? | C. Samith |
