Tickets Please

After this:

Does anyone want to take me to a baseball game? I know lots of worthless baseball crap from my early years, I still have a soft spot in my heart for the good ol' Oakland A's. I can even hand-score the game for you (I think I still know how). So exciting.

The only downside to this whole thing is living one block from the field. Things didn't start to quiet down around here until about 1:30 this morning. Having to get up at 6:30 for work was a little rough to say the least. Of course it is worth it, but I am going to have some serious sleep to make up come November.

Party Time!

Excellent!

Party on Wayne! Party on Garth!

Last night I had an amazing time. I'd like to thank everyone on behalf of Dad for making it to D-town for the celebration. I'll get all the photos and put a few select shots up here soon (I hope). There was just so much going on that I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to put into words just how much fun it was. Of course, whenever Ken B. is in town from NYC there are bound to be some stories.

Today is all about relaxing. With the nasty weather out the entire family went out for breakfast at The Original Pancake House and now we're all just lounging around. I'm not quite sure what's on the docket after they head off to the airport, but I'd like to keep this low-key thing going. Maybe go catch a movie, eat a nice dinner or get a couple of drinks. Really doing any one or a combination would make for a good end to a great weekend.

hOoray!

With an extra big O!

Things seem to be going really well right now. Everything is coming up Milhouse!

It's going to be a super-fun weekend. I can't wait to help Dad celebrate his birthday, especially with all the family and friends that will be in town. In fact, Dad and I went out to lunch with little Miss Mary today.


We really didn't go anywhere special (just the Corner Bakery), but it's always nice to be together. I love this fambly!

I'll try to take many (blackmail) photos of the party Saturday night, but if I have too good of a time and forget, don't hold it against me.

After that it was back to the grindstone until I didn't really want to be at the office any more. So...I went home and worked some more! After that it was on to watching the game with Rebekah.

The Rockies totally ROCKED today. Nothing like winning the opening game of the NLCS away from home to demoralize the other team. Demoralization is, after all, my favorite pastime. I'm not sure on the statistics but it should be something like 84.756% of teams that win the opening game of a series go on to win in the end. Everyone be sure to watch the next few games. I think there will be big things ahead for many of the young guys on the team this year. If not, at least good memories will be had by all. And really, in the end all we have are those memories, so make them while you can.

And now for something completely different...

I think I'm ready to finally make the big jump and get myself out of Downtown, but man, with views like this....

It is just really hard not to enjoy Denver. This was dusk a couple of days ago from the top of my building after a (hard) ride with Seth. Man, I don't know how I won't be flying next year if I end up riding with him a lot this winter. The guy just never goes easy. I guess I'm just glad I'm not a Time Trialist, because if that's how you have to train to do well, it just seems like waaaaaay to much work.

More riding, work and fun to come in the next few days. Hasta la vista!

God Spoke

Saying let there be Media, and there was, and it was good.

I don't know if things really went down that way, but at the request of a Ridiculously Skinny Person for more photos, I have decided to go one step further. I thought about throwing a very NC-17 music video up here, but I don't really feel like getting blacklisted, so here's my favorite video of the last year. Enjoy!

It's Alive!

And by "it" I mean me, and by alive I mean, well, alive I guess really does work. What do you know about that?

This last week has been pretty busy, so sorry about not posting much. The rundown goes a little something like work, ride, golf, eat, drink, ride, drink, ride, drink, ride, drink, eat, and then ride. I think that's about it. I'm starting to feel more like my old self again so that's pretty nice. The only downside is I see about 10 things a day I want to just rant about here but I'm not quite sure that's the best thing to do. Maybe sometime in the near future (if my anger doesn't get any better) I'll start up a new bit just to let loose.

Lastly Go Rockies!

You guys are totally rockin' it right now. First Arizona, next the AL. Let's go! And if anyone out there has spare tickets to any of the coming games I promise I'll be your best friend if you'll take me.

Update

And just as I complain about the Rockies taking forever to end the game, what do they do but explode in the 13th to tie and then win on a great sacrifice fly. On to the playoffs we go! More excitement around home (and a lot less parking) to come!

Oh, Come On!

So I'm sitting here, ready for bed but I need to see the end of this stinking baseball game. Nothing really special happened today. Got up, went to work, rode after work and I've been watching this game ever since. I like the playoff atmosphere and all, but man our "national pastime" is freaking boring!

Well, in the words of Officer Barbrady, "Nothing to see here people, move along!"
