of course, I went to the baseball game
and as expected, I'm a retard for even thinking of not going. I mean, first of all, I would have missed seeing this sunset:
But, also, I would have missed almost seeing Darvish pitch a no-hitter (the first Marines hit came in the 8th inning) and getting to know a new group of people.
See, I was waffling up to the very last minute about whether to sit in the infield or outfield... but I picked up a Subway sandwich in Plena Makuhari on the way in, so decided to sit in the outfield. And I knew Hiromi wouldn't be there so I wasn't sure where my usual gang was... and the game had already started... so I decided I'd just go in, look around, and either sit by myself or sit with whoever said hi first.
And naturally 5 seconds later I hear "Deanna-san!" from a bunch of the people I met in Hiroshima last weekend. I asked if they had any free seats and they did. So I ended up sitting pretty much right in the midst of the ouendan again. Woo. And as it turns out, their group is the same people who always sit like 3-4 rows behind us at the Tokyo Dome! I definitely recognized some of the jerseys and stuff that the others had -- crazy.
So yeah, they were nice, and the people to my left who weren't part of their group were also nice, and it was just generally fun. I did go to say hi to my other friends halfway through the game, which was a little weird. But after the game, which the Fighters won 5-0, I ended up riding halfway home with three of the guys that I sat with for the game, so we talked on the train for a while, and they were like "you're coming tomorrow, right? we'll save you a seat!"
If anything, now I'm worried that TWO groups of people, maybe three, will be saving me a seat tomorrow. Oops :)
So tired though. It's almost 1am and I've been up since 6. Going to crash shortly, then pretty much wake up and go back to Chiba.
