Costco is a big store. They sell a lot of stuff. And most of their stuff come in big containers. Huge boxes of cereal, giant containers of mayo, etc. Lately I've notice the individual specimens of food are larger than normal as well. Big steaks, large bananas, and huge strawberries and potatoes.

Just look at these things. This potato was enormous. Seriously, I only had to peel this one and one other potato for a meal, and we had leftover. For reference, I've taken a photo of it next to my shoe. I wear a ladies 8.

And then there is this strawberry. It was delicious, but Greg and I were a little afraid to eat it. What the heck did they inject it with? Some sort of steroid or growth hormone? Thought I'd take a picture of it in a carton of extra-large eggs. 18 pack. From Costco.

Yesterday's double-header was not so good. Unfortunately, we lost both games, but at least the first one wasn't a complete blow-out. We where mercied in the second, as the score was 15-1 by the 3rd inning.

The first game was a lot of fun though. We got a few runs, and I made some good plays at third base. I also hit quite well, but never managed to make it past first base. I attempted to get on second, however my uber-graceful slide just wasn't enough. So I was out, and all I have to show for it is a scratched up lower leg and a whole lot of skin missing from my upper thigh/butt area. It was really hard to sleep last night, and I have no idea how I'm going to make it through the day with pants on. I'd post a photo, but I don't think people really want to see a bad case of road rash on a big, swollen leg!

I am, however, very happy with this self-portrait I took yesterday. I was not very happy with the current one that I have on my photography site, so I tried to take a few more. This was the best of the bunch. It really shows my wrinkles though. Maybe I shouldn't have sharpened it so much in Photoshop!!
