So not disappointed

[susandennis]

The box from the Mariners arrived. And it was amazing fun to open. It is silly, wonderful stuff and I love it. Except for the cowboy hat. But, Goodwill will love that. I think I'll make something out of the two t-shirts and maybe the pajama pants but I don't know what yet. But it's all such fun. And now it's all put away. I now have a dedicated Mariners section on my hall shelves.

The Mariners are losing substantially here in the 9th. While I was unpacking the box I was paying attention to the box and not the game. When it was clear they were going lose again, I thought 'hmmm wonder if Houston won today?'... I woke up. The Mariners are playing Houston. So, yeah.

I had a single stalk of celery in the fridge and most of a bag of Pepperidge Farm stuffing left so I got some chicken thighs while I was out this morning. This afternoon made a batch of stuffing/dressing and then packaged it up with the thighs in dinner sized portions. I put all but one in the freezer. Guess what's for dinner?

The sun is out but it's still pretty cool and comfortable. My weather app says the next two days will not even see 70 which will be a treat.

Oh I did hear from the people behind my swim music player. They are sending me a new charging cable and if that does not fix the problem, they will send me out a new player. Very nice.

And my brother is hope with is new hip and he says things are good.

The game is over. I think I'll find some Acorn TV to watch.

Good god sweet swag!

[susandennis]

I know, right?? It's so silly and I love it so much.

I think it is officially cool again to wear fanny packs too.

[susandennis]

Interestingly, that fanny pack is about the most quality of anything in the bunch. Lined with an extra zippered pocket and the zipper pull is a little green maple leaf. so cute.

[meowmensteen]

Wow, thought went into the making of that thing.

I...kind of...like...the cowboy hat.

It’s like so kitsch, it’s gone round the bend and then back again. And if you wore it to the game and passed another fan wearing theirs, it seems like the kind of thing where you would each nod, significantly, to the other. That’s how I imagine it, anyway! 😆

Did you, perchance, have chicken for dinner? :P Glad your brother is recovering OK.

[susandennis]

You are clairvoyant! And the chicken was delicious. Thanks.

And to make matters worse, Oakland won. Things are getting yet more interesting in the West.

I think you'd look great in that cowboy hat.

[susandennis]

Yeah, I'm not very optimistic about the Mariners, the AL West or the hat ... sigh

What are the teeny tiny figures leaning on the bat? I've never seen little figurines like that...

[susandennis]

They are the bobble head equivalent of wine corks.
