Padres finish over .500. Congratulations to the Red Sox for fighting their way back to the post-season. Congrats too for the Astros who had a comeback not dissimilar to the A's, except they made their way to the playoffs.
It was a bizarre baseball weekend, here. Yesterday, the Yankees won our division, despite the fact that they were only one game ahead, and we still had today's left, to play. Today, we beat them, and tied them for the season, but they're the winners, and we're the wild card. Today's game hardly mattered, though. Once we knew Cleveland lost, we knew we had the Wild Card, regardless of whether we lost or won. We were well ahead of the Yankees by then, but still.
It was just all so...mathy.
It was very mathy and strange. And today's game was sooooo sloooooooow.
Yesterday's game could have gone differently had the home plate umpire actually had a set of functioning eyes. Ortiz was hit by that pitch, and Matsui was definitely outside the base line trying to dodge that tag. Hrmph.
Yeah, Serenity did about what was expected, plus had a higher per theater sale than Flightplan.
So, I'm down to one grandparent. And my favorite ex is married.
On the upside, I finally met Jen's ex-sister-in-law in good enough light that I think I'll finally remember what she looks like! On the downside, been crying pretty much since I got home. Though I think that's mostly because I'm exhausted -- hotel bed not great for sleeping.
Oh, Em. I'm so sorry -- and it sounds like a lot on you in one weekend, on top of traveling.
{{{Emily}}} I'm so very sorry.
Well, it's been a bit exhausting, I'll admit. Really thought I was going to start crying at the wedding, and -- promise you won't judge me for being really really petty and small?
Oh Emily, I'm so sorry for your loss. You poor sweetie. Facing all that on travel+exhaustion can't be helping at all.
