Day #70 8/17/11: Where we going guys?…

I talked with Ricky this morning just before our epic trip to the Oakland A’s/ Orioles game where I somehow thought they would either A) get killed or B) just flat out embarrass themselves but magically they did neither and I was proud of the fact that my buddy Walt and his girlfriend came along as they were willing to make the drive to take us to the Oakland coliseum. It was a fun day where we joked about the A’s horrible record but they somehow came through that day to win the game 6-5. Later that day, me and Ricky hung out some more as we kept talking baseball and we even had a conversation in Spanish talking about what it takes to be a good companion to a girl and also about what it has meant to us to have these conversations as we share some of our past experiences which, believe it or not, are some of the most jaw dropping incidents that can even be heard of. I can say that having these conversations allows us to feel stimulated mentally and we can do it without each of us having a harsh critique of the other. It is good to know either way that we had this good conversation on a balcony at the mall because it served as a reminder that there will be past experiences where we learn and where we can keep striving forward.
