Snickerdoodle!
YAAAAAYYY!!
"Snickerdoodle" was the inaugural "Word of the Day" back in the summer of 2001. Whenever someone says the word of the day, everyone [in on the joke] within earshot would respond with "YAY!", to the bewilderment of everyone else.
Oh, how I miss being a summer missionary sometimes.
But in any case, the meaning for the utter YAY-ness of this post:
I signed a lease for my pre-Katrina apartment today.
People, I have not been happier in the last 10 months than I am right now. This nightmare is finally ending, and Lord-willing, Katrina will not happen again.
At least not until we've built cost-effective houses that can withstand such a storm.
Played a softball game last night. With 8 guys. Not cool.
I'm putting it in a code block, only to keep formatting straight.

Myself, I went 1-3, batting eighth. Lined out to pitcher with the bases loaded to end the first, popped out to short (second ball hit in the air all season long) in the fourth, and ran out a slow throw from short to lead off the sixth. I was on deck when the game ended.
It's just not good to play with only 2 outfielders, though. Anything down the line or straightaway is an automatic triple for the other team. Nate did a knockout job in left, but he had to shade center, and not everything was right at him.
*sigh* At least it wasn't the 18-1 drubbing we got 5 weeks prior, first time through the schedule. And then, we had 9 people.
But it's all good, because I HAVE AN APARTMENT NOW !! :happydance:
