balance - or more appropriately titled: my name is kari and i'm addicted..


so last night we went to the durham bulls game. i think we only stayed for about 6 innings since we got there late and left before it was over. no shortage of small children doing what small children do - yell the same 4 words over and over, spill things, make numerous trips to the bathroom, yell for the mascot to come over...
i do find it interesting to see what songs the players pick to play over the loudspeaker when they are up to bat. always a bad a$$ bumpin' song you might hear coming out of a pimped out ride, that you think has to belong to a large black man who has not only memorized but lived the lyrics... but alas its usually a small white guy coming up, guess they are trying to prove something. i thought about what song i would play and its a toss up between jack johnson's flake and foo fighters all my life. though i would also like to do something like madonna's "express yourself" just to make everyone say "huh?" figure that one out!

anyway no food purchases at the ball park, every time i go i get a soft pretzel which i love,but here they are always not hot and not soft.. so a stop at harris teeter was made on the way home and cookie cake purchased. we always get the one with the most icing, though now they actually sell tubs of the stuff. .but thats a bit much right? we got the one that said congratulations on it. we always pick the one with the most icing.. our best one yet was a "hats off the the graduate" comeplete with iced hat and diplma. yes!!! easter and spring are the best times as flowers us up large quantities of icing. yes there is an art to choosing your cake! i do eat cookie cakes, and brownies and ice cream. its all about balance and i do believe quality of life. i'm giving it my all for triathlon right now but there has to be room for the other stuff too. and darn they are good!!!!
