more winning and eating

and more ncaa basketball, mens and womens... way more tired than i ought to be, which would be concerning if i wasn't still sleeping on the way-too-soft couch that has the back hurting and woke me a few times last night... so i was achy and stiff and cranky and the team did their usual give-away as we were down 11-6 going into the last inning, but we were able to come back to tie 11-11 and we went into extra innings... the errors continued as we gave up a run we shouldn't have given up... we then scored a run to tie again and poor base running prevented us from winning in that inning... up comes the ninth inning and we give away two more runs on errors... with a little luck, like three walks, we scored three in the bottom of the ninth and won 16-15... if they kept track of earned runs i maybe gave up one, but the stats they post do not calculate earned runs so once again it looks like i pitched poorly, which is frustrating since they post those stats on facebook... all i can do is ignore the team page and ignore the questions people send to me... at least the team page is private, but there's no motivation for me to go be part of that page cuz the report/stats just brings me down...

winning isn't everything...

we went to the host bar afterwards to eat... graffiti junktion in thornton park which usually has pretty good burgers so i got one... they were out of onion rings... unfortunately the burger was overcooked but i was too hungry to send it back cuz it took forever to come out and i had not eaten all day and was feeling a serious sugar low so i ate it with a whole lot of ketchup and yeah, the body is telling me i had too much salt... surviving for now, with a nyuk nyuk here and a sigh over there... jackson posted pictures on facebook, in case you are curious for visuals...

there is no perfection, but we had fun...
