I went to a Minnesota Twins game today at the Metrodome. The stadium is getting replaced this off-season, so I wanted to be sure to catch a game this season. Hopefully, it won't be my last baseball game of the season. Funny thing though: $8 general admission ticket, 2 $1 hot dogs (only on Wednesdays to the first 20,000 fans), and a $6.50 beer. Something seems a little out of place...
Anywho, great fun at the ballpark with a bunch of Minnesotans. And a Texan and a Floridan. Good times.
This weekend has some fun times planned. I'm going to the Minnesota State Fair on Friday (Deep Fried Twinkie on a Stick!!!) with a friend from school. Might meet up with some more friends Saturday and/or Sunday. Maybe try a different place of worship on Sunday too. I've got to make sure I get some good hearty fun in this weekend, as next week Tuesday classes start.
I think most of the guys on my floor have moved in, though I really don't know for sure. A few of them are pretty nice; I haven't met the rest. I've been quite introverted and fairly reclusive once I get back to my dorm room (I'm exhausted from the day!).
Thought from the baseball game today: What is the relationship between faith and sports? How do some people follow sports with varying shades of worship, including a litergy and praise? Interesting how some fans will follow a sport or a specific team "religiously", i.e. reading articles and scores in the sports page rather than reading scripture or articles about God. This is something I hope to improve upon myself.
I'm still getting used to the schedule and time difference here. I'm getting up a lot earlier than I was back home...
Peace and Joy,
-K.

So are you thinking the admission was too big compared to the food, or that the food was too expensive? Glad you had a good time.
