My New Car...

...Who Has No Name
I bought a car this weekend - GAH!! I am so excited, so proud of myself, and so terrified. Bye bye, money... but my Saturn rocks. I haven't named it yet, though. It is white, but I think it has the spirit of a green car... I'm not getting a vibe about it's gender though. I kind of want to name it Hunter, but sports can be so fickle - knowing my luck, Pence will get traded... "my last car" was a Crown Victoria, and I wasn't sure on the gender vibe, so I named it Victor Victoria (I know, I'm so clever) and usually called it Vivi. I must give this more though. I have already made small efforts to make it my own. I added a scarf around the rear-view mirror. I need to put my magnetic Save Darfur ribbon on there somewhere. Anyways, huzzah for me! Wish me luck, and pray for me - I'm already a nervous driver, and now I'm driving my life savings...

Updates

So much has happened:
Brad and I went to the Maxim/Bud Light Hook Up party last week - AWESOME!
Brad's birthday was Friday, June 22 and we went out to Pappas Steakhouse; unbelievably delish! Then we went to Drink Houston and got on the radio; Brad got to do his Borat voice on 104.1 KRBE (which is probably b/c Carson thought I was totally cute, which I am...)
I helped Rachel choreograph a few songs for Little Shop of Horrors on Sunday. It was really fun, except now my shoulder is really sore. I didn't stretch properly (for shame!) before the "air guitar"... foolish, rookie mistake!
The Astros finally beat the Rangers (1 out of 3) and Hunter Pence still has my devoted fandom. Swing for the fence, Pence!
Biggio is moments away from the big 3000, and I think he may actually get to hit it in H-town! Shenoa might even be at that game.
This Saturday Brad and I (and possibly lots of friends) are going to the racetracks to see Merle Haggard (there is no way I spelled that right). It should be...... interesting.
Oh, and it was Krusty the Clown, with the Extend-O Glove in Krusty-Lu Studios!

Astros

Hunter Pence
I have always been an "Astros fan" by association. I lived in Houston. My dad and brother watched. I went to games with my family. You know the show.
I even tried (and mostly pretended) to learn to appreciate baseball for an ex. Couldn't make the cut.
Well now, I have finally learned, "Oh hey, this is actually a really interesting game!"
Brad and I are going this Saturday (to watch the Rangers get it handed to them), and it will be our fourth game this season. We are loving it! And this weekend we are in the Crawford boxes, so watch the game on TV. You just might see us!
Anyway, I think we might make a sign that says "HUNTER PENCE MAKES SENSE!" Have you seen this guy? He is really playing his heart out. How many weeks has he been on this team, and he sprung out the gate with gusto. The only thing that concerns me is that he is an aggresive base-stealer. This is all well and good when it works, but it can become a problem. He is just such an eager beaver out there.
So watch the games, cheer your head and don't forget to do the wave.
Or something like that.
