Da Dodgers!!



Today started out to be such a hum drum day. I was discouraged and a bit pissed off. My phone is off again, and when my phone is off, I miss out on jobs. Since I had auditioned and applied for a great deal of jobs this week I was bitter. I was bitter because when my phone goes off it is not my fault. It is because people like to send me text messages and sometimes I am near my limit and a text or 2 throws me over and shuts my phone off. When this happens, I can no longer use my voicemail. So I started my day pissed off, but let it go, like I have learned to do and today turned out to be a GREAT DAY!

After relaxing at the spa in 24 hour Fitness I realized "hey, there isn't much I can do today so lets just relax" and I went to the library for my usual email check. Upon checking my email I saw that I had an email from the L.A. Dodgers. Apparently at one point I had applied to sell peanuts and popcorn and such at L.A. games. Well, they need me to work the Playoffs!

Since baseball is my favorite sport and most of the players who I like on the Dodgers used to play for MY team the Red Sox, I am so stoked. I had been down a bit because I am used to tending bar and making that type of money, but I am trying to stay away from that scene as much as I can and this works out to be a great compromise.

While I will always be a Red Sox fan and come World Series time I will be routing for them (they WILL make it). I feel blessed to be able to make a couple of hundred dollars a day and be at the National League Playoffs and if the Dodgers keep winning, the World Series. WOW!!!

Mindset is everything...had I stayed glum and pissed off and looked for every reason why I should be upset all day, blamed people and complained about poor me to my friends, I am convinced none of this would have happend.

I remember when my friend Patience told me a long time ago that sometimes when there is nothing happening and no apparent way out the coolest things happen and that is proving true in my life!!
