When I was trying to book my hotel room for my trip to Phoenix this weekend I had trouble finding one that was anywhere near my grandma's house. This, of course, is due to the fact that she lives like 5 minutes away from the Peoria Sports Complex, where two baseball teams do their spring training. Now, you may not know this, but I am a semi-closeted baseball fan. I'm a born-and-bred Yankee fan, which makes me fairly unpopular anywhere that isn't New York. My dad's a Dodger fan, though, and since I live less than 2 miles from Dodger Stadium, I try to root for them, even though they suck. Anyway, since my flight arrives in Phoenix at noon tomorrow, I will have an opportunity to go to a spring training game either tomorrow afternoon or Saturday afternoon, and I'm having trouble deciding which one to attend. If I go tomorrow, I'll have to kind of rush to the stadium, but I'll be seeing the White Sox play the Mariners, which should be a reasonably decent game. If I wait and go on Saturday, I'll be less rushed, but I'll be seeing the Royals play the Padres, and they both suck monkey ass. Well, ok, the Royals aren't that bad, but the Padres just plain suck. I need you guys to help me decide. So, tell me: haul ass across town to see the good teams, or chill out, relax, and see the suckier teams? I should mention that there are seats available in the infield directly behind home plate for the Friday game.
In other news, there is a gallery opening at the Brewery this weekend. I make special mention of it because both Liz and I have something in the show. It's the Brewery Artists' Small Works show, which has items from various artists who reside at the Brewery. I won't be there for the opening, but I think you should stop by anyway if you are in L.A. because these shows are always amazing and show a ton of diverse styles and mediums. If you can't make it to the opening, you must come to the Spring Artwalk, as the show will still be running then, and you can stop by my loft and be awed by my amazing talent and/or the sheer quantity of gingersnaps available for snacking. The artwalk will be on April 12-13, and I will remind you about it constantly over the next few weeks so that I will eventually break your will and you will feel compelled to attend. Suckers!
