Quotes

Fun baseball quotes to start the week, honoring one of my favorites, the great Nolan Ryan. My BF sent these my way, knowing I'd like them. Said boyfriend also got me a NR autographed ball through the Nolan Ryan Foundation as a gift (what every girl wants, right?). Get your piece of history by making a donation to his foundation...so cool you can send in your own memorabilia. Somehow it makes it seem more real, authentic.

Every hitter likes fastballs just like everybody likes ice cream. But you don't like it when someone's stuffing it into you by the gallon. That's how you feel when Ryan's throwing balls by you.
-Reggie Jackson, Hall of Fame slugger

If he would act his age, there might be a few records left for me.
-Roger Clemens, pitcher

The Beach
I had a wonderfully long weekend in Myrtle Beach--plenty of hours spent lazily absorbing the the beach--perfect weather, bright blue skies, lots of waves, cozy sand, suntan lotion in the air. And finishing Harry Potter. (Oh. My. Gosh.) Honestly, I don't know how you midwesterners exist, being so far from the coast ;) It's therapy.
