September 22, 2007 - Saturday

It seems like my blogs are a little baseball heavy around the first part of spring and the end of summer. It's probably because the beginning and end of my boys' season is right around those times, which gives me time to ponder the wonders and joys that are baseball.

Going to the last game of the season tomorrow gives me time to think about how awesome (and different) last season was. Now, I'm not one to live in the past -- makes your neck sore to look back too long -- but the Twin's last regular-season game in 2006 was way too cool for words. As dorky as it sounds, it was one of the most exciting things to witness in my adult life. (I do have a picture of my freaking out somewhere in my photos on here.)

Last year, we won the division with the entire Metrodome watching the Detroit game on the Jumbotron. This year, we will try not to get swept by one of the worst teams in baseball. Ack! I just want to hear U2 sing "Beautiful Day" one more time this year in that Dome. Is that too much to ask? I hope not.
