I have a firm believe that my gloomy spring is a result of the earthquake in Japan. I have lived in northern California for what is now the 8th spring season. Never before have I seen the constant cold/rain/inconsistent weather we are currently getting. Meteorologist just keep forecasting rain. What a great job those guys have. Look at the sky and some weather maps. Make some shit up. Get a check.
I am really looking forward to baseball season this year. I was pretty depressed for most of last year for a large number of reasons and never got into the baseball season. I pretty much lost interest all together by mid-July last season. It figured to be the same this year, but I started planning for fantasy baseball early, started eating better and lost some weight, and got into a generally better mood. So I'm back.
I have tickets to the Oakland A's season opener on the 1st. They play the Mariners. We grabbed one of those family four packs for what came to around $62 for seats, drinks, hot dogs, and peanuts for all. And for being one of the first 32,000 fans, I get a free magnet schedule!!! YEAH! Pretty damn good deal considering the value of all of that is over $100.
So spring is kinda here where I'm at, I'm feeling better about myself and life, and baseball is here. Oh, and I just got an awesome new sofa and my kitchen is being renovated withing the next few weeks. Good times.
