When I woke up Wednesday morning, I was tired and didn't want to go out. I wanted to read my book while looking out over the balcony. I've wanted to go on a cruise for most of my life and the view from inside the room was very much like looking over the bow of a ship. I've done that a few times if a ferry counts as a ship anyway. It should since it isn't meant to be lifted out of the water but I digress.
More than anything, I wanted to slow down the pace of the trip. It was Wednesday and weeks have a funny way of going by in my life. Saturdays and Sundays take forever to pass. Monday is usually my favorite day of the week followed by Tuesday which is a sort of Hump Day for me. Wednesday tends to be a very long day in terms of hours but it's so full that it flies past. Thursday and Friday fly by probably because I dislike the weekend so much.
These journal entries needed to be done unless I wanted to abandon the project again and I don't want to do that. Therefore, I did Sunday, Monday and started Tuesday before getting dragged out unexpectedly. My beloved wanted to go out and watch some waves down by an amusement park. I want to set aside the idea that she is some sort ogre. I want to bury it. She asks so little of me so I try to say yes. We saw waves and a classic car.
I was exhausted when we got back but I was worried about getting a nap in before the game started. Eventually, I couldn't stand ir and went to sleep but learned that we were mistaken about game time anyway. It was two hours later than we thought so my nap ended up being much better than expected.
The game was just extraordinary! The Braves got off to a 1-0 lead and the pro-Atlanta FOX announce team started talking about the importance of a shutdown inning. That is when a team's pitcher holds his opponent scoreless after his own team scores. Needless to say, that's not what happened to the Phillies. We scored six runs on our way to an eventual 10-2 win!
