Culmination

This past weekend, a Twins ballpark bill was passed by the Minnesota State Legislature. The governor said he's going to sign it this week. This culminates 10 years of waiting for Twins fans, and gives baseball in the Twin Cities a bright future. I am just elated. I can't wait to watch Twins baseball outside. As a lifelong Twins fan, this is just like Christmas. I've been to Miller Park and Safeco Field, and let me tell you, I'm so excited. This is such a win not only for baseball, but for the state. In other news, the summer is officially upon me. And that is good. I spent the night last night at Scott's dad's, which was fine. Tonight I went and saw The Da Vinci Code. I must say, I liked it. It dragged a little at times, and being a hopeless romantic, was disappointed when the romantic end was cut out, but hey, it's could. Even though it's clearly fiction, you have to admit that it is a really good story. An interesting story. I remember getting my photo taken in the Louvre next to the supposed resting place of the Holy Grail. Funny how much a piece of pop culture can change how things are interpreted. Still sort of drifting in and out of thought on the mysterious girl. I ran across her blog on facebook. We're actually listed as friends, so it's not like I was creepy stalking her. I clicked on it, but it was brand new, no posts. I wonder if she's going to write anything. With my luck she'll talk about how wonderful her boyfriend is or something. My friends want to do something really stupid on Wednesday. They want to start drinking at like, 9 in the morning, then go to a Twins game. I said I'd meet them for the game, but would not drink beforehand. I said I'd chill out in the evening. It's just so dumb, and it makes me angry that they seem so baffled by my decision to not partake. Why can't my decisions be respected? I'm not going out of my way to stop them. They should accept what I want to do, and I don't want to go see the Twins play drunk. I don't want to drink at 9 in the morning. I want to see my friends and watch some baseball. I don't need alcohol to have fun with friends. It's just so damn stupid. Seriously, come on guys. I don't know, I just think there's a difference being alcohol in a specific context, and just doing dumb stuff. This is dumb stuff. Anyways, sorry about my little rant. Can't wait to watch the 24 season finale tomorrow morning (I taped it). Hope everyone is well.
