Washington and Roosevelt, originally uploaded by dharmabumx.
It’s not every Sunday one gets to be surrounded by former presidents, sitting in the sun while enjoying a cold beer or two and rooting for the home team, in spite of their less than stellar record, but that’s exactly what my husband and I did yesterday. Our 20 game season ticket package came with 9 Sunday games this year, which is wonderful. Nothing quite like a day game, where you can relax and know you’re not getting home at 11pm. . .I just wish the team would turn it around and start winning a few more, or at least put a few more runs on the board. The Nationals lost 5-3 in their final game against the Texas Rangers, bringing their record to 30-47, the worst in the National League and the second worst in baseball. . .I’ll keep going to games, watching them on TV, following the news and trolling the blogs because I’m a fan and I’ll stand by this team regardless. . .it would just be nice if they’d string together a few wins more than once every 4 weeks. . .
I’m going to hold onto the memory of yesterday, of big headed men with tiny hands and molded foam smiles, throughout the day today as I know it’s going to be another crazy start to a very busy and very week at the office. . .
