Baseball, Beer, and Burn!

What a day yesterday was! 7.30am Mass to hear Armando give his reflection, then bumped into my boss and he told me I was going to the Baseball at Pac Bell (AT&T Park to most of the world...ALL of the world except Giants fans)!

Now, I'm not one to turn down a free day out and I've been interested in watching the sport to see whether or not I could like it. Turns out I can. I think it's helped by the tremendous facilities that are there. I'm not kidding there's restaurants, diners, burger bars, rice bars, ANYTHING you can think of. BUT, the downside: $9 for a beer!! Are you KIDDING me?! But I guess it's how it is.

Now, I was told that it would be cold as it's on the bay but it wasn't! I got BURNT! Badly! So, out comes the aloe and hopefully my skin wont divorce me!

I had thought that being here doing a job grounded in Spirituality I would be having much more deeper BLOGs than these. But, I think I'm having too much fun! Don't worry though...I'll return soon enough with a deep one...when I've finished being a tourist!

Hey Lobsterboy!

Sounds like you are having a really good time - and so you should! Just think about those mind-numbing days in your former life and how you wished to be living your dream. And that you are doing now! Keep enjoying and your words do still have a deeply spiritual undertone. By the fact you have "escaped" from your regular 9-5 existance and are now living and working in another country, surrounded by opportunities and experiences some would kill for (literally) - is that not proof positive that you are doing some of the big man's work?

Well, it is to me.

Keep up the beer guzzling and sun-bathing - in the name of the Lord, brother. :)
