Monster Mini-golf/Red Sox

Went Saturday to a birthday party for Matt, Kim and Brian where about 30 people (of which I knew all but 3 or 4 so too many names to list) played mini-golf inside on a monster-themed course under blacklight and with fun music playing. I lost in our foursome by one stroke but think I had the overall like 3rd best score which was nice given it has been a very long time since I played. Given how many people were on the course and how oddly organized the course was (each hole went straight into the next with no barriers between them at all), I was surprised how little waiting there was. We almost never had to wait for the group in front of us and also almost never delayed the group behind which was great. Had a really good time at golf and afterwards at dinner for 20 at The Chateau, where the food was only ok but for the size of the group the service was very good which is unusual. I also did the for me very unusual thing of bringing my camera and taking a bunch of pictures.

Had to carefully avoid the tvs playing at the bar in the restaurant and beg people to not give me Red Sox scores as was TiVoing it at home. Well, the game started at a little after 8 and I got home a bit before 11. Was an excellent and very close game so I watched it a bit slower than I normally do but still caught up to the live game at around 12:15 but amazingly the game still had another 1:15 to go as the Indians broke things open against the dregs of the Sox bullpen in the 11th. I still have a fair amount of confidence in the Sox winning the series but we'll see. Figure they just need to win one of the next two to stay even, win the Beckett game and go home up 3-2 but we'll see how it goes.
