I need some book recommendations. But I thought that before I went begging, I'd give a couple ( Read more... )

I'm tired of the Astros giving away games. What was the 5th inning about? How do you go into an inning with a 4 run lead and end the inning one run behind? What is that?

We were playing excellent baseball until Joe Crede's homerun. Ugh.

Best day ever ( Read more... )

Scott, who just last baseball season told me that baseball was "boring" and refused to go to any games with me, has turned into one of the biggest Astros fans I know. He has decided these last two days that he is going to do a "Fastro" - he is fasting through the day and only eats dinner at night when he's done with class ( Read more... )

Why is it that in baseball, the managers wear a baseball uniform? Basketball coaches don't wear basketball uniforms. Football coaches don't wear football uniforms.

I just wonder why. I think it's kind of fun, but it really makes very little sense to me.

The Astros won the NLDS! I am thrilled beyond words! And, also, exhausted beyond words, but that's part of the whole story. It was by far the most exciting game I've ever been to ( Read more... )

It's almost midnight, and we're headed out. The news is telling us it will take us about 3 hours to get out of Houston, so I'm sure we're in for a long drive.

Carrie asked where we would move, so I thought I'd respond here, so that I can post a picture.

We'll likely be moving to Klein, TX, or somewhere near there. (For you Houstonians, we're looking at the Champions area, just northeast of 249 and 1960.) It's 45 minutes to one hour from where we live right now.
