I want to marry this man...



This was filmed (not by me) the night we went to the Dodger game. He was so funny the ENTIRE stadium was laughing. They play this song every 8th inning but tonight was extra special. The camera scans away at the end which was the funniest part, the guy slowly turns his Dodgers hat around and does the #1 with his finger, you can hear everyone laughing at it. Classic.

p.s. If anyone knows where I can find this guy, let me know...

iPod Poet

Do you have an ipod? Me too. I love my ipod. It's like my own personal radio station with only my favorite songs. I used to love to put it on shuffle and just let the Shuffle Gods take it away. But something happened. Shuffle is not what it used to be. The Shuffle Gods have lost their power. Not sure why.

This is probably not a new concept but it has changed my "pod" experience in the last few months to a more randomized, joyful experience. Instead of choosing "shuffle songs" choose "songs" --the alphabetical list of all the songs on your ipod. Just pick a letter and let it play. The names of songs are way more random than a mere shuffle but I must warn you, there still are themes that correspond with the letters.

For example, the letter "C" can be a little sad do to words like "corner," "cold," and "crash."

"H" is one of my favs because of words like "heart" "heal" "happy" "heaven" "high" "home" "honey" and "hope". Ugh so good.

It's almost like poetry too.
Let Go
Let it Be
Let it Die
Let me in
Let the Drummer kick it
Lets get Lifted
...
The littlest Birds
Live it up
Live long
Lived in Bars
...
Now at last
Nude
Numb
Number one
...
So high
So in love
So long
So says I
So sorry
...
Summer skin
Summer wind
Sun comes up
...
Take a bow
Take me away
Take your mama out

if they don't win it's a shame




It was quite a shame. still number one though.

So fun:
1) watching kids scramble and scream for the stupid beach balls to come their way
2) eating peanuts with dad and throwing the shells right on the ground
3) two words: Dodger Dog
4) 7th inning stretch "root root root for the DODGERS!!!"
5) Manny hit a HR
6) Drunk people. Lots of drunk people.
7) Family
