Night of Fun...

Here's a picture for you to ponder for a second:

What do you think that is? Yes. It's a shoe. But, where is said shoe?

Maybe this video will help you out:



That's right, Interwebbers. Tara, Jaxson, and I went to a Rangers game recently. Tara works for the Dentist that the Rangers use as their "official" dentist. As a result, my wife has had her hands in the mouth of Rangers GM, Jon Daniels.

Impressed yet?

Anyway, on Monday, a patient who has season tickets came into the office and offered Dr. Frank (Tara's boss) tickets to the game on Tuesday. She has season tickets, so the seats were pretty good. Turns out, Dr. Frank couldn't go.

On Tuesday, the tickets were given to Tara. (For a t-sip, Dr. Frank's a pretty cool guy.) YAHOO! We were going to the game!

As you might have noticed, our seats weren't pretty good...they were very good. FIRST ROW good--right beside the Rangers dugout, and literally 10 feet from the On Deck circle. (Way better than the time my seats were supersized at the Astros game, but that's another story for another time.)

We had a good time at the game, unless your name is Jaxson. I think he enjoyed it for the better part of the top of the first inning. After that, he was restless, and even soda and popcorn couldn't hold his interest.

We stayed as long as we could, but left shortly before the exciting conclusion. (Rangers won, 4-3 in the 9th.)

When we got home, we watched the game, which I had TiVO'd. Turns out we were on TV. It was pretty sweet. Come over sometime, and I'll show you my 15 minutes of fame.

Here's a few pictures from the game:

It was almost like we were in the Dugout:


Finally, notice the Rangers' Mascot, Ranger Captain. As an Aggie, I couldn't help but include this picture.


Until next time...

PS. My 15 minutes were more like 15 seconds. Which means I have 14 minutes and 45 seconds left.


PPS. Thanks Dr. Frank! Sorry about the t.u. remarks. Please keep employing my wife. We have a young son. He needs diapers. Here's a picture of him thinking about the idea of not having any diapers. Sad, isn't it?
