So much for that idea…

I posted yesterday that the Red Sox information webpage states that cameras are allowed in Fenway Park.  It said nothing about any restrictions, and for a little while there I was thinking I’d be able to bring my DSLR in to Monday’s game.

Then I figured I’d better ask about larger cameras, specifically those with detachable lenses, to see if there are any restrictions on the camera policy that aren’t mentioned in the posted camera policy.  I was hoping I was being paranoid.

Nope.

I sent a message via the Red Sox Contact Us page asking if cameras with detachable lenses were allowed into Fenway Park.  I just received a response.  The answer is a big fat smelly no.  (I expected it, really)

The responder said that the camera policy posted on the information page needs to be updated and that he will work on getting that done.

Bummer.

Jen and I get a huge bonus tonight.

A few weeks ago the kids went to a concert with their father and step-mother. The concert was on a mommy night so we didn’t get to see them at a regularly scheduled time. That doesn’t happen often, but when it does we have the conflicting feelings of being happy that they are doing something fun and exciting, and sad because we miss them.

This time though it was a trade. Dad got them on one of Mom’s nights in exchange for Mom getting them on one of Dad’s nights. That night is tonight!

Woohoo!! Bonus kid night at our house! Awesome!!

It turns out the Red Sox have a Fenway Park information page that includes their camera policy:

Cameras and video cameras are permitted inside Fenway Park, but cannot be used to reproduce the game and must not interfere with other fans’ enjoyment of the game.

That is good news. It says nothing about specific cameras being banned. I have been to a couple of hockey arenas that allow cameras, but ban those that have detachable lenses.

If I decide to go to the game Monday afternoon I will probably bring a print out of the info page with me.

I might call them to confirm too. If I go.

Nothing special this morning.  Nothing spinning around my otherwise empty head… which I guess implies that my head is completely empty today.  I’ll buy that.

I’ve been really tired the last few days.  I got a good night’s sleep last night, but I fear I will need another one tonight before I am right again.  Here’s to hauling in the Z’s.

We have Red Sox tickets for Monday afternoon.  I took the day off.  Jen’s not going to be able to go.  I could go alone.  I guess.  Or I could stay home and play guitar all day and maybe get a couple more new songs onto alonetone.com.  Or maybe I could go into Boston with my camera in the morning.  Can I take a DSLR into Fenway Park?  I should look into that.  It might influence my final decision.

I guess my brain isn’t empty today after all.  Just mostly empty.

Does the blogger app handle HTML? Probably not. Let’s see…

Woohoo, it does!

File this under “life’s simple pleasures.”

I love it when I come home and park the car in front of the house, and when I look up through the windows I can see my wife inside.

Sure it’s a little thing, but it makes me so happy. I love it when that happens.

In response to yet another round of changes made to the Star Wars movies (specifically, Return of the Jedi), here is a few Sympathetic movie moments.

If you don’t know what I am referring too, watch this.

How much is that kitty in the laundry…

Sing it with me!
