So last night was my second softball game. This game was much better considering I was put into right field instead of being a catcher. That was an easy job as I had one ball get close and the other guy got to it. I have to say we won, like 16-8. We did have a ringer. We had to get a sub because one of our guys was out so a friend of another guy got to play, he is on a baseball team and was actually on a practice sqaud for the phillies. Needless to say he got our only home run, and he played a pitcher for those teams. I saw him throw a baseball into a fence and it was faster than I could see.

So my first at bat I get up there and swing and a miss and swing and a miss. Then I am told I started out with a strike. Apparently the rules of softball are you start with one strike against you. Who knew? My second at bat I swing and I hit the ball. It was a dinky hit and the ball goes flying up and the pitcher catches it. My third at bat I let the first one go cause I wanted to be cool, even though it was a strike. Then the next pitch I swing and I hit it over the heads of the pitcher and the second baseman. Then the outfield center catches it and I am out. I am proud just for getting contact with the ball. Woot. All in all it was a good game. My team is 2-1. I am actually on a winning team. The last time was that soccer team when I was 7. Maybe I will get some pizza if we win it all.

In other news it is Friday and I am ready for the weekend. The only thing we have planned is to get the oil changed tomorrow. I also got a 2 week trial subscription to Netflix.com. Why you ask? Well I am trying out their online movie streaming service since I have my computer hooked up to the projector. They have way more movies(around 1000) than hulu.com and the quality seems better. I also have a queue setup to get movies sent to the house. Last night I watched Ice Pirates online. Of course it is all for $8.95 a month, and I can have two DVD's delivered to the house at a time and then can mail it back when I want another movie. If used often enough it is much better than actually renting movies or using on demand to pay $4 for a stream. TV shows are better on Hulu.com, Joost.com and Sling.com though, they are more older ones, like Doogie Howser and Family Ties. Shows I watched when I was a kid. Now if only Sling came to the iPhone so I can stream my home tv to my iPhone. Sling submitted their app to the iPhone App store 3 weeks ago and it has yet to be approved. Rumor has it that it would cause AT&T to go slower with people using their data plan too much. We shall see. I guess I am trying to get my video setup all complete. It is pretty cool having access to thousands of movies. I might just relax this weekend and watch them.
