Danielle Lawrie is disguesting









Even if you were routing for Florida last night (sorry Dave), there's no way you can deny that statement.  Lawrie just got stronger and better as the game went on.  Chappy and I arrived in Park City at about 530, thinking we would speed set up our tent and get into town in time for the first pitch...not.  We pulled into the "RV Resort" and Chappy said that clearly there was no room for our tent here.  I didn't think so either at first glance, but the thing online said there were tent sites.  Since we were starving, we left the RV Park and I quickly tried to find campsites online, knowing that I couldn't make a second mistake or Chappy might divorce me.  We ate at Subway and none of the campsites were conducive to us setting up quickly and seeing the game.  I said there had to be tent sites at that other place because it said so online so maybe we should just go look.  Turns out there were in the back (though it was very clear that they were never used.  We obviously were the only tent among tons of RVs).  In order to get to the tent sites you had to drive down two sketchy dirt roads because there were 3 levels: the nice RV sites, the decent RV sites, and the shitty tent sites next to the creek.  After almost driving off the edge of the parking lot twice before finding the right way down, we set up our tent quickly, changed into our Washington shirts, and headed to Main Street.


We found a really cool brew pub, so they brew their own beer in the back, and we were maybe two of 10 customers in there when we first walked in.  We sat at the bar and watched the rest of the game, with Chappy biting her nails through the entire 7th inning.  When Lawrie got the last strikeout, Chappy was ecstatic.  Having adopted Washington as my team this World Series, I was also thrilled, but I'm pretty sure it took all of Chappy's self control not to scream in the middle of the bar.  Since we were exhausted, we pretty much went right to bed when we got back, and fell asleep to the sounds of the frogs croaking around us.

  2. Victory arms! So I have to tell you guys a story. Yesterady, my mom and I went into Manhattan for a doctor's appointment and decided to see a musical. So our musical starts at 7 and it was 6 and we had nothing to do. So we decide to go to Toys R Us and go on the ferris wheel there. We got seated in a car that had a giant plastic ET and a giant plastic Toys R Us giraffe...and the giraffe was doing victory arms!! So now I have a picture of me and this random plastic giraffe doing victory arms together. Long story, I'm sorry.
