May 26, 2011, Giants/Marlins



Not only did I find Giants tickets on craigslist 2/$15 but Wayland was biking around the city to hand deliver them. I love it. As usual I walked from work to AT&T in my Giants 2010 Champions hat and shirt with an extra ticket to sell or give away. I got chided nicely by SFPD for offering it for sale on Giants property. With no takers I determined to see who was in the free viewing area by the water. I saw a guy about my age with a cane and he responded, "Sure." I walked to the top of the 305 VR. I was already a bit late and with a game lasting only 2 hours 18 minutes it was a quick one. I had a great time and loved seeing a Giants triple play. Unfortunately, the night before Buster Posey was injured at home plate by incoming runner Scott Cousins. So I didn't get to see him on the field and it's unclear whether he's out for the season. Florida won 1-0. I picked up a bunch of plastic cups for the family reunion prizes and walked to Red's JAVA HOUSE for my chili fries. I continued my Embarcadero walk to the foot of Market Street seeing $5 tees and $20 hoodies for sale. I was already tired and I had the California Cowboys at Todos Santos in Concord to enjoy. I got up to dance barefoot in the grass there and a challenged group was up front and a guy from it began dancing, looked over and saw me and motioned for me to join him. So I did. He told me I looked adorable. I don't think anyone has ever said that to me. He kissed my left cheek. His caretaker thanked me as she took our picture. He had an eye for pretty girls. Next came a red head, then a blonde. They were a good band and I had a nice time dancing and reading The Help. I was only one number off on my cherries guess. Once home I was more than ready for a bath and to watch the new season of So You Think You Can Dance. Dancing With the Stars ended Tuesday so it's perfect timing. DWTS is my favorite. I was actually able to sleep through the night some seven hours. Will wonders never cease?
