Two days....two days

[KitchenWitch]

Can I possibly make it?

[Oeditpus Rex]

1. If I can

you can.

:thumbsup:

:bounce:

[Droopy]

2. 2 days without a smoke?

Sure you can make it. I went 7 months without a smoke. I also put on 30 pounds. I now smoke again. I figured it's either die of obesity or smoke related illness so I chose to light up and enjoy. Your mileage may vary.

[KitchenWitch]

26. Actually I am almost 16 years without a smoke now!

[Katherine Brengle]

3. two days of what?

:shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

4. Two days until I get to watch my beloved Twins play baseball

and 5 days until I get to watch my son.

[Whoa_Nelly]

5. You will just have to amuse yourself while playing with the Lounge Lizards

and messin' with thier brains for the next TWO DAYS!




(What will happen in two days?????? OMG!)

[KitchenWitch]

6. I would be doing that anyway!

:rofl:

[Whoa_Nelly]

10. You know, I posted you a pic of Matcom

:rofl:

[KitchenWitch]

16. Where???

must see matcom!

[reyd reid reed]

7. You can make it...you can...

We've made it this far...it's almost here...two days. Actually, more like 37 hours. LESS that two days.

And I've been banned from my son's games.

*sigh*

It ain't me, I'm tellin' ya...it ain't me.

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. Is too

HE even says it is.

Oh... and did you remember to subtract an hour for DST?

Dodgers start at 1:10 (PDT) Monday. Do the math.

[reyd reid reed]

12. Hey...

Is NOT. It is NOT my fault. They lost the game I DIDN'T go to, too. Granted they didn't get mercied that game. And they didn't make any errors.

But...it's not me. It's not it's not it's not it's not it's not...







:hide:

I hope.


(And no, matter of fact, I didn't. It's late and I'm about eight steps behind here...so make that 36 hours.

Even better.)

[KitchenWitch]

13. How did you get banned?

I would be heartbroken if I were banned from KWSon's games.

[reyd reid reed]

22. He's played both spring and summer ball

Since he was in the eighth grade. He's a junior now.

They've lost every game I've been to. Every. Single. One. I haven't even had to attend the whole game...even if I'm just there for the first few innings...they lose.

They win if I'm not there. Last year they went something like 11-3. I was only able to make 3 games (of course, I was banned after the second one).

I AM crushed. Heartbroken. Desolate. But...for the most part it's not TOO bad. I'm usually working when he's playing, anyway.

[KitchenWitch]

23. Yikes!

:(

[reyd reid reed]

30. I still swear it isn't me.

I mean...this is the same kid who blames his slump towards the end of last year on a change in his morning routine (not being able to listen to the right music while he was getting ready for school).

The same kid who has to wear number 4...or a multiple of four...or numbers that'll total four....

It's not me. Nope. I refuse to accept it.

But...after the last game I went to...I guess I'll humor him.

[KitchenWitch]

32. OMG My son is that superstitious as well

going as far as needing to eat the same thing before every game. (scrambled eggs.)

[Oeditpus Rex]

37. Funny thing about superstitions

If you believe they work, they do.

Or, as Crash Davis so eloquently put it, "Never fuck with a streak!"

[KitchenWitch]

39. Oh, I know!

I will never forget the time I was with one of my more controversial witch friends (who liked to antagonize Christians). He was in a fairly interesting "discussion" of theology with this poor little Christian woman, and finally she gave up and pulled out her crucifix, apparently trying to scare him (as if he were a vampire). He did not miss a beat and replied, "You truly have to believe in that for that to work."

Her jaw dropped and she turned white as a sheet.

Personally I do not like to antagonize anyone, but this person is someone who revels in shock value.

[Oeditpus Rex]

48. Well, that goes a little beyond

not stepping on foul lines, but... :rofl:

[aquaman]

9. Do you like pro baseball really?

I myself can only tolerate college sports, the energy level is much better. Better than watching millionaires scratch themselves. I would rather watch athletes play with the goal to be millionaires.

[YouthInAsia]

11. self delete

[KitchenWitch]

14. What did you say?

:shrug:

[aquaman]

17. I saw the post before it was deleted.......

It said George Bush is the greatest president ever.

[KitchenWitch]

19. hmmm

INteresting!

[Oeditpus Rex]

42. *'s gonna throw out the first pitch again this year

In Cincinnati, though. White House says he probably won't be available to do it in D.C. for the Nats' home opener on the 10th. I guess they figure Cincinnati's safer for him.

Fun story on presidents and baseball: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/12110102/

[reyd reid reed]

45. Oh, great

Why the fuck can't he just throw out the first pitch for the Rangers or the Astros or something and leave the rest of us alone? The excitement's s'posed to be about the game...about the brand-new season. Not about the secret service swarming all over the place and you Know that's all they're gonna talk about for the first inning or two anyway.

GodDAMmit.

But...in the end...even that can't stop my fuzzy tingles. I refuse to allow it.

:D

[Oeditpus Rex]

50. Hopefully what they'll talk about

is all the booing. :bounce:

[KitchenWitch]

46. I saw that

:puke:

[YouthInAsia]

21. I thought you were quitting smoking cuz I didnt read all the posts

and I was offering you encouragement

[KitchenWitch]

25. Oh thanks, I can always use encouragement!

:hi:

[YouthInAsia]

28. So I'll tell ya GO TWINS! instead.

:toast:

[KitchenWitch]

34. Very cool!

And go Jaguars too! (my son's team)

[Wapsie B]

15. We're gonna win Twins,

we're gonna score, we're

gonna win Twins, watch that baseball soooaaarr....

Crack out a home run Shout a hip-ho-rae

Cheer for the Minnesota Twins today!!!

[KitchenWitch]

18. woohoo!

I hope we have a little offense to go with our great pitching staff this year.

[Wapsie B]

36. Yes me too!

Always helps to have some hitters on the team. Gimme a dependable leadoff hitter and others who can get on base and a few who can hit for power. Never hurts to know how to actually hit that little white ball.

[liberaltrucker]

20. Hi, KW

:hi:

I'm pretty much in your backyard....Hudson, WI.

Unfortunately, got a tight delivery schedule in
Menomonie. GOOOOOOO TWINS!!!!!!!

:hug:

[KitchenWitch]

24. Oh man, sorry to hear that!

Where are you heading after Menomonie?

[liberaltrucker]

27. Don't know yet

But I'll PM or call when I do.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

29. My dear KitchenWitch!

You will make it! Two days isn't too bad......I hope!

:hide:

:loveya: :hug:

[liberaltrucker]

31. Hi, Peg!

:hi:


:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

35. My dear liberaltrucker!

Hi back atcha! :hi:

[KitchenWitch]

33. Oh I know

I will make it, but I can FEEL baseball coming back! I am so excited that my son's first high school game is on Bert Blyleven's (a former Twins Pitcher and the local color analyst) birthday and a day before mine!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

38. My dear KitchenWitch!

I forgot you have a birthday coming! Omigod........

This is an exciting bunch of events for you......

Hope you have a wonderful day when it gets here!

Which day is it? Tuesday?

:loveya: :hug:

[KitchenWitch]

40. Friday!

[liberaltrucker]

41. Baseball gets in your blood.

I'm a Cubs fan because I visited my grandparents in Chicago
as a child every summer.

They lived within walking distance of Wrigley Field. Damn,
I miss those days!

[SeattleGirl]

44. It sure does!

I've been a baseball fan for as long as I can remember, in part, I think, because my mom and my materal grandfather have been life-long fans. The three of us used to get together, when Grandpa was still alive, and watch 2-3 baseball games on a Saturday afternoon. I miss those days too.

[KitchenWitch]

47. Oh how I love Wrigley Field

I have been there twice, and IMHO it is a spiritual experience. Muslims go to Mecca, I go to Wrigley.

[SeattleGirl]

43. Got my Opening Day tickets for Monday, and I am SOOOO ready!

Safeco Field, here I come!!!!

[KitchenWitch]

51. I am not going to the home opener this year

since I always take my son, and our home opener is on a Tuesday (I do not leave games early, so extra inning game would mean a terrible day for my son at school.)

I do have tickets to the first game of the second home series (against the Yankmes).

[Robeson]

49. Damn. You mean they're not going to go on strike this year?....

...rats.....

:hide:

[SeattleGirl]

52. Blasphemy!

:spank:

[Robeson]

55. Hey, a guy can hope, can't he?....

...:shrug:

[KitchenWitch]

54. Don't make me hurt you!

[Robeson]

57. Oooohhh, now I'm really hoping!.....

[KitchenWitch]
