Personal Note: Take me out to the ball game!

My team made the playoffs this year. Go team! I put myself into the postseason ticket lottery, as I always do, and came up empty the first two rounds (last year I qualified for LCS tickets, but my team crashed and burned in their divisional series). Still, I consoled myself, the World Series lottery still remains and there's at least an outside chance the team might make it that far (if they can patch the leaks in their starting rotation, anyway). But then this morning I received word that I had won the right to a ticket or three to Game 5 of the divisional series, should it be held. So I bought one ticket, down at 100 level on the third base side, just past the end of the infield. Sweet. The only problem is that my team will have to lose two games in order for me to take advantage of this windfall, and I can't root for that ... can I? (No. Let's take 'em in three and move on. I'll hold out for a seat at the World Series.)

In other news, my spam is getting more surreal by the day. ( I've seen this movie before ... )
