Can I PLEASE say that we are going to the World Series, NOW?

I know i was optomistic about the Rangers going to the world series... and quite frankly I had no idea we would... of course.. but i was just really really hoping we would, just this one time... (and maybe next year too.) I know that there was some negative feeback, that we wouldnt be going, and to basically not be surprised if we dont make it.... but its not like I put all of my energy into that the Rangers MUST win.... no... im not like that... really no one should.. but I know that there are some extreme fans out there... that just would have been so depressed and angry if the rangers did NOT make it this far... of course now everyones expectations are just THAT much higher, im sure many people are thinking we MUST win the World Series now.... but anyways--

needless to say im thrilled that the rangers are going to the world series. :) its soo exciting. The rangers have never been to the world series.
On friday evening, I was talking to my dad in the top half of the 5th inning (i was driving) - dad told me it was 1-1... i was scared that we wouldnt win.. -- For a few moments I thought (no

i ran into my apt really fast to grab something... as i was driving through the complex, many back doors were open and you could see the game going... as i was lockign the door behind me - all of a sudden there was an uproar from the complex... i knew something good had happened.. dad called me as i was going down the stairs, told me its 5-1 now!!! yaaah i couldnt believe it! we were winning.

I went over to a friends house to watch the remainder of the game. i was driving over there, had the game on in the car--- they were saying "everyone is standing up... it looks like Kyle Field" - (talking about how a&m aggies stand during their whole game... the people in the stands..)--- it was really great feeling when i got to the tv and could see that everyone was standing... and how everyone was in red... all you could see was red :) (and speckled with some blue and white.) it was so great seeing everyone having so much pride for their team.





The first game of the world series begins wednesday night, against the San Francisco Giants, in San Francisco. -- The first game back in arlington will be on Saturday (which i may have tickets to one of the home games... a BIG maybe)

Ticket prices are now $500 + a ticket... yeah.. i typed that right... $500. we may get tickets for $125 / $175.... but we will have to see.

I think that its just really cool.. this time next week we could be World Series Champs.... or whatever---

just cool to think about... I think we done pretty good. :) if this is as far as we get, i would be ok with that... however how cool would it be if we WIN the world series?? --- pretty cool.

ticket sales for next year would be better.. .rather than the 1/2 empty stadium like it was at the first of this season, since they went to the world series... which would be good.
I think that since they've gotten this far it has given a since of positive unity. :) --- i know... weird... but the majority of the people that i know are rooting for the rangers.

People are cancelling events to just watch the World Series... We are cancelling / rescheduling activities that are normally held at the church on wedndesday evenings... something that like never happens.

anyways... we'll see what happens... :)


Go rangers!

Misc.

Alrighty-- lots going on..

first::

Texas Rangers are in thePlayoffs!! tonight rangers vs yankees... gonna be good. i cant wait.. soo awesome... just a sense of unity... i dont know..
Today i went to a sports store (Acadamy - Sports and Outdoors) went to go get my dad a t-shirt...
i WAS going to get him tix to the game, but they were too expensive for my budget... so i know he will be happy with the shirt... probably more so than the ticket... ehhh probably not.. but its all i can do for right now...
anyways so while I was in the store, everyone was so nice-- everyone was hovering over the Rangers merchandise... there was a lady, we both ewere going through the shirts trying to find different sized.. she was looking for a shirt with "hamilton" on the back of it, in an XL, I was looking for a "Lee" in an XL... so here we are going through... she found her shirt, i mosied on over to a different rack.. just funny we all were there for the same reason....
our home team had made it to the playoffs.... we all were going to go to some sort of watch party or to the actual game, and we are looking for a shirt to wear so we can seem like we are into the game. :) i dunno.. but after 39 years of the rangers never making it this far...pretty awesome.
like my dad said the other day... Cliff Lee is like the Moses of this time..  haha... anyways---
while im not HUGE into baseball, i grew up with it, with my brother playing it from t-ball and into highschool.. i try to at least keep up with if they won or lose (i work with alot of guys, so talkign about the game the night before, or at least knowing how the home team did..... it helps in awkward moments when walking down the hallway or  whatnot..) anyways--- so i cant wait.
Tonight my family is getting together at my granny's to watch the game-- will be fun.

Lets see....
i moved last month due to my apt being broken into... not sure if i've shared that or not..
so im in a new apt, love it.. feel much more safe.
despite my noisy neighbors..

but love the actual apartment, so nice and big, im being more organized... well for the most part.
I have to clean house this weekend... laundry's overflowin... dishes are stacked... and closet is a mess, but if i work hard for like an hour, it will be fabulous.
I want to make some curtains for my living room and for my bedroom.
i need to still hang pictures.. then thats it.. :) it will really feel like home.
I have got to figure out a different way to organize my closet... its horrible.

i want to have a game night in November... so i gotta get it really in shape... and have people over and everything..
while im at it...

i also got word im losing my job... so once again, on the job hunt...

i went to University of North Texas (UNT) to look at it..
i know i want to go there..
just i wanted to talk to the Journalism dept to see about getting into photojourn. looks like i can.. (gotta get grades up first so it will prob be next summer or next fall. :) so its exciting... something that i really cant wait for.
i loved being up there.. loved the atmospere, i cant wait til i can get up there... they were doing a "slushie " thing, from Glee-- where they pour slushie on yuou... it was so funny-- different sororities and Fraternaties were doing some other stuff. just a fun atmosphere...
