Tuesday's Random Ramblings: When Boys Make Plans

Oh yes ladies, another Tuesday's Random Ramblings from Yours Truly! I know you're beyond excited to read this bit of blogging gold! (Jokes...but let's be honest...)

It seems that whenever I have a Random Ramblings (which has only been one other time??) it's about my lovely boyfriend, Justin.

Maybe it's because I like talking about him. Or maybe it's because since being with him, he's opened my eyes to the strange world of MEN.

Pretty sure its the latter...

But anywho, this past Sunday, Justin and I hung out with one of his college roommates (and teammate) and his wife. The boys were in charge of making plans, which we know ladies, isn't always the best decision!

We met up with Jeff and Jess at church and made our way over to their casa afterwards. We decided to pick up some pizza and the boys wanted to watch the Tiger's. Ok, so far so good. Pretty normal guy-like plans, right?

Well here's the kicker. It was a BEAUTIFUL day outside and the boys thought to themselves: "Self, why don't we enjoy watching the Tiger's WHILE enjoying the great outdoors!"

Yes ladies, they brought the TV outside on the deck while we ate pizza. Ok, so it was a little odd, but we were fairly close to the house, so it wasn't that weird. Actually, it was a pretty good idea!

Then, Justin and Jeff decided it was too hot on the deck and they wanted to move into the shade. So what do they do? They grab an extension cord, hook the TV and a fan to it, and drag the whole shebang into the yard under a tree.

OY VEY!

The neighbors were out in their backyard showing, what I assumed to be, some friends their property. I'm pretty sure they were wondering what the hillbillies were doing with a TV and a fan in the middle of the backyard. 

I will say, it was kind of nice. It was like we were at the Tiger's game! But at the same time, who hooks the television up to an extension cord and drags it out into the back yard?? Only boys!

And this is why I have loved every single second of the last two years and three months with this man.

He may have some of the wildest ideas, but it's always an adventure with him! Let's be honest ladies, who wants to date a bore anyways?

Tuesday's Random Ramblings: Baseball Boys

First, before I go on rambling about baseball boys, I need to share one of my bargain finds yesterday!

You must know that I decided to reward myself with shopping after getting peed on yesterday by one of my toddlers. Now, I've been peed on before, but it's usually like a small spot on my shirt where their diaper leaked when I picked them up. Yesterday, it was a completely different story.

One of my kiddos was sitting on my lap when I felt that awful warm feeling. I knew immediately that his diaper leaked. Oh, but it didn't just leaked. This little stinker must have aimed perfectly to make sure his pee SOAKED my jeans. Literally, pee running down my pant leg. Yup... that was lovely.

But anyways, I went a little overboard at one of my fav bargain stores, Marshall's. I found these lovely Minnetonka Abbey Ankle Fringe Sandals!

On to the real reason for this post...weird things that baseball boys do. As I have mentioned, my boyfriend coaches a varsity baseball team.

Last Thursday, I went to support Justin and watch his double header. It's not my favorite thing to do, and quite frankly, high school baseball is about five notches more boring than watching golf, but I'm trying to win the Girlfriend of the Year Award, so I do what I can.

Since, dating this hooligan, I've watched more baseball that I've watched in my entire life, and there are just some weird...habits... I just don't understand. My question: Why do baseball boys insist on slapping each others butts?

 [I know this happens in all sports, but we're just going to focus on baseball for the sake of photos, people]

And when they're not slapping asses, they're constantly touching each other. I swear, Justin and his players are always touching one another. Let's take a look at some pictures to demonstrate...

Listen boys, whatever floats your boat. I'm not judging! But I didn't come here to watch you get all handsy with each other!

I love that I'm over-exaggerating this whole thing and I hope that Justin gets defensive like he did when I said he slapped the umps butt, but let's be honest... IT'S KINDA WEIRD!

And since we're talking baseball, lets just throw in a picture of the stud doing his thing.

What do you think about athletes being all handsy on the field/court/whatever the heck they're playing on and then being completely homophobic when they're not?

Well, that's all for this week's Tuesday's Random Ramblings!
