fortunes & unfortunes

fortunately
Ben got off work at 3:30pm on Tuesday so we could go to the Giants vs. Phillies game!

fortunately
We found a great parking space downtown close to Jim's Philly Cheese Steaks!

unfortunately
We could not get the parking pass machine to work.

fortunately
We asked one city parking official, who called over another city parking official, and after neither could get the machine to work with our debit card or our cash, they gave us THEIR quarters to pay for our parking! Haha!

fortunately
We got to eat at Jim's one more time! Yum!

fortunately
Ben bought a Jim's t-shirt and he looked dashing all night!

fortunately
We got a fabulous parking spot at the game in preparation for a quick exit!

fortunately
There were giving out FREE ice cream right outside the stadium! A flavor that Ben and I have been eying (Phillie's Graham Slam) because of the possibility it may be similar to our very favorite flavor (Graham Canyon)! It was just like it! Yummy!


fortunately
The heckling for being a Giant's fan wasn't too bad. The funniest thing that happened was when one guy walked up to Ben & me and asked if one of us was from San Fran. When I cutely/sweetly/totally naively answered "I am!", he just walked away! Then some other guys (also Phillie's fans) walked up and told me that I can't let myself be treated like that - I need to give people &*%$ and tell them that Phillie's fans are going to h-e-double hockey sticks! I said, "Haha, I'm just not very good at being mean!" Oh geez.

fortunately
The night was beautiful and Ben and I had a blast!


unfortunately
The Giant's suffered a painful loss which we're not going to discuss anymore.

fortunately
Ben made one amazing move getting out of the parking lot and we were on the road home in about 5 minutes!
