I kid you not.

At the ripe ol’ age of ‘I’m not telling’ I have discovered a love for baseball. I come from a family of football fans. Niners fans to be exact with a straggler or two rooting for some other team. My twins… well somehow at the age of four they decided one was a Packers fan and one was a Cowboys fan. Needless to say their grandfather and aunt have not disowned them yet and it has been almost two years since they decided who they were cheering for.

One of my boys is a huge fan of baseball on the wii. So being the mom that I am (and having a best friend who is a HUGE Cubbies fan), I decided that the only thing I could do was learn a little about the sport. Low and behold I fell in love. Not with the guys in uniform, though I will admit they do add a little something to the game. I actually enjoy the game. Vegas has no claim to a major league sport of their own, however we do have sports here. We have hockey with the Wranglers, arena football with the Gladiators, and then we have baseball……where our beloved (even though they are not performing well) 51′s are currently the official farm team for the Toronto Blue Jays. But to my darling Cub-loving best friend, I will let you guess what team I root for.

Yep, that’s right ladies and gents. It is a Red Sox hat I am wearing. No the photo is not from a Sox game, but a local game before the 4th of July. Regardless it was a blast and we had awesome seats compelete with entertainment two seats over. So as my nephews are headed to watch the Angels play the Stankees… I mean the Yankees tonight, I am hoping the Angels can pull a little West Coast magic out of their hats and help keep the Sox ahead. Oh come on Yankees fans you’ve heard worse than that I am sure. Boston fans do too. It’s all for the love of the game. Hmm story idea brewing here….better get outta here.

Sláinte!

Whoot! Okay, so months ago I decided on this awesome gift for my darling best friend for her birthday and a belated Christmas present. Yes, I know it sounds kinda cheap of me, but many of you may not understand. Going to a show in Vegas, or at least most of the good ones, is likely to break your bank account and this one is no exception. The choice was also a bit self indulgent. I have been dying to see Phantom of the Opera. Broadway would be my preference, however, it would appear that at the rate I am going, even an LA production is not in my immediate future. The Vegas production is supposed to be unbelievable. Well, we shall see as Row and I can be a bit difficult to please when it comes to such things. (We have quite defined ideas on our musical productions ) Here is a little promo to whet your appetite.
