Daring to be....Me

I can't believe it's been over a week since I last posted. It's been a bit of a rough one, which would explain my blogging hiatus. It's funny because I believe that a lot of people write more when they are wrestling with something or there's stuff going on in life. I think I must be just the opposite. I'd rather shut down and hide from the world for awhile until I get things figured out. Hmmm.

Well, enough introspection for the night. Did anyone else watch "Grey's Anatomy?" I was excited to hear Mat Kearney's song on there. (Yes Trix, that's one of THE "Matt's".)

And did you watch the Cards vs. Astros game? Geez, those fans could have been a little more obnoxious at the end, don't ya think?! Poor Cards. I still love you!

I did have a "There's no crying in baseball" moment this past weekend...

On Saturday, my sis informed me that I could have their tickets for Sunday's Cards game. And even though this was last minute and I had to attend a meeting after church which would make me late for the game, I was going regardless. It would probably be my last chance to attend a game for the next year or possibly even two.

My mom went with me this time and she may have been more excited than myself. Of course on our drive over, she kept pointing out how dark the sky looked over by StL and I tried to reassure her that the game would be played and the rain would be part of the fun.

I was wrong...on both accounts.

We waited for 2 hours with rain delay (even after arriving late) and at 3:45pm they finally announced they were cancelling the game. Now, they say there's no crying in baseball, but I was pretty close.

For a consolation prize, we thought we'd go sit in the Starbucks across the street from the Stadium for a bit just to chill and not make our drive a complete waste. And lo and behold, just when we went up to the door, they were closing. 4pm in the afternoon! What?


I'm pretty sure the world was against me.
Except for the fact that we somehow managed to park for free.
