It's a very sad day for me. All the excitement I had stored up from doing at-home Combat last night faded when I got to work and checked in the paper. Manny Ramirez has been traded to the Dodgers. He will no longer be a RedSock, he will no longer play at Fenway park, he will no longer complete the gruesome-twosome. Manny Ramirez symbolized everything baseball is to me. Manny had his faults, but who doesn't. As much as I love Fattie Ortiz, Manny's attitude is everything I hope to be one day. My heart is broken. I don't think the RedSox will ever be the same.
Speaking of baseball, I went to a Saltdogs game with my dad tonight. It was my father's day gift to him. He had never been to a game; he rarely comes to Lincoln. I was worried that eating stadium food would ruin my already shameful week. Turns out, a hot dog and popcorn isn't too bad for me. Mixed with a healthy Subway lunch, I stayed right at my 1200 calories for the day. I even skipped the cookie Jennifer tried to seduce me with! Lately my morning weigh-in has been looking good and therefore motivating. I won't say what it is, because it always goes up on the weekend, but I'm gonna try real hard to keep it there.

Way to enjoy stadium food without going overboard. That's when you know it's a lifestyle change and not some "fad" diet you're waiting to be done with!
I was trying to tell my mom about how you called David Ortiz "Fattie" and she didn't get it. I love it though.
I like how it's Red Sock, when you're just talking about one player, and it becomes Red Sox when it's the whole team. HA!
