The Mets



I went to a Mets game last night after work with Abbey, Adam and Walt. It was such a sureal feeling driving into Queens, besides the traffic jams and angry semi drivers. (They are really aggresive around here). The best part was seeing the NYC skyline in the distance. Long Island feels pretty rural in some places, so it's easy to forget that I'm just a car ride away from all that. The game was great: lots of homeruns, which led to a Mets win. And the weather held out despite forecasts for thunderstorms. Most of all, I was just really happy to actually do something on a "school night" and see familiar faces.
On a completely unrelated note: I petted a llama today at work. A first. The lab has a market day every week, and today's attractions included two llamas. They're really soft, in case you were interested.
