So glad to get my pooch back today. I think she missed me. 

Sure, sure, the Braves go back to winning after my game. 
 

Still had an awesome time. 

Finally finished Shogun. Now reading Wolves of Winter by Dan Jones. 

I played this for a bit today to pass time at the airport. It’s cute and fun in bits.

Would you consider driving to Georgia if you visited again? The distance from you to there is about the same as me from @stepee 

I really don’t like long drives. It was nice getting here Friday morning and basically having a whole day to do stuff. 

Sitting all day in the airport and I finally got the book finished. I don’t go back to work until Thursday so probably gonna start the show tonight or tomorrow.

Were you a big John Rocker fan?

I grew up with racist parents and I always rejected their bullshit, so no, I was not a John Rocker fan. 
 

John Smoltz, yes.

City connect’s are the best in the MLB in my opinion. I wish they would wear those throwback Hank Arron uniforms all the time. 

I really like Seattle’s and Boston’s CC and I have one of each. Atlanta’s are just as good. Really really nice looking jersey. 
 

Rockies have a nice CC too. Might have to grab one when I got to their game next spring.

All Braves?

lol, yes. Got the two-toned “A” hat and the City Connect hat. Shirts were Acuna, and I went retro with Jones and Aaron. Jerseys were the Albies I mentioned and I went back and got a Matt Olson City Connect because I love the look of those. 
 

Braves just have a lot of players I like, current and historical. 

@Biggiei ended up getting 2 jerseys, 2 hats, and 3 shirts. Lmao. 
 

YOLO. I just fucking love baseball gear. 

Even though the Braves lost, we still had a ton of fun last night. I love the ballpark. Truist is pretty nice. 
 

Back home today. Sucky part is the rental has to be at the airport at 10 and our flight isn’t til like 5:30. 😩Good thing I have a book and my Switch. 

6 in a row, then I showed up.

And the weather has really cleared up and it’s going to be a beautiful night for baseball. 

I wish it were about 10 degrees warmer, but yeah, I’m so glad it’s nice and sunny now. 
 

Having a beer at one of the bars on the Battery and waiting for Bombasador to show up. 

Spent a lot in the team store, lol. 
 

Got me a navy Albies jersey. And an Aaron shirt.

Fair enough. Seeing these rap references go over your head is amusing though.

Honestly, it’s kinda unsettling you thought I used the n-word.

I thought you said you used to listen to rap and say the n-word, what's going on here?

Uhhhh, no? Definitely not thinking of me. I mean, I had a couple of Eminem albums in the early 2000s, but that’s about the extent of it. 

Really enjoyed the aquarium. Might be my favorite of all the US aquariums I’ve visited, but I think Osaka is still my favorite.

Isnt that where the players play?

I mean, they have a lot of good ball players. 

Imma get me a hat at the team store tonight. Find me a shirt I like, too.

Skipped over my question SMH. Might have to start agreeing with Best about you soon

I didn’t get the reference  

We did pass an Aston Martin yesterday, though.

I'm sure you’ve said this - but where in the UK are you going to visit? 

About a week in London and a week in Edinburgh, but I’m also wanting to spend a night in York as a midpoint. Various day trips around the two big cities.

Nice. I like a good aquarium. I want to go to the Monterey one near here again soon too.

This is supposed to be a great one. I always wanted to come for the whale sharks, but I did get to see those in Osaka last year, so it’s not quite as big a deal now. But I love aquariums. Been to the ones in Boston, Chicago, and Seattle, too.

I don’t. I’d be to insecure to meet any of y’all from here. 

I actually would meet you in person. Show you I don’t hate you.  

18 minutes ago, Biggie said:

Will you visit me? Also are you at the Braves/Rangers game?

Our tickets are for Sunday night. I’m desperately hoping the rain has moved out by game time. We’re gonna do the aquarium that day. 
 

I honestly didn’t think you ever met people from the boards!

Just wanted to do a weekend getaway and I haven’t been here since 2000. Visiting family tomorrow who I haven’t seen in years and years and hopefully going to a Braves game Sunday if the rain clears out that evening. 
 

Ready for my big trip to the UK in September, but this will tide me over until then. 
 

Also, 7am flights are a bitch.
