Sweet Caroline...


:) So, I just got done watching the Red Sox game. It has been waaay too long since I was able to watch one of those. I either am busy when it's on, or it's not on my one of my few channels on my TV. Frustrating. Tonight I had some time so I decided to flip on my TV and cross my fingers that it would be on. It was! I had to leave in the middle of it for an Activities Committee meeting (which was very hard for me to do) but I made it back in time to see the ninth inning.....and Papelbon pitch. That excited me. P.S. they won! I love watching them play. It causes me stress like nothing else, but it makes me happy. Sometimes I think it was probably a bad idea for me to become a baseball fan, because when it matters (like this week) it stresses me out! When I am watching a close game, I sometimes feel like I am more nervous than the players are. When Beka came into the living room and saw me in the fetal position hugging my pillow she asked if it was a close game. At that point, it wasn't. They were doing fine. But I can never relax because I know how quickly it can change. As stressful and nerve wracking as it is for me to watch, it's almost calming at the same time. There is no better way to end a long day than with a good baseball game. Also, I've decided that I'm marrying David Ortiz. When that kid smiles it literally makes me smile. Okay, he's not really a "kid" and he could be married for all I know. But I fell in love with him tonight. 

Unfortunately, tomorrow is a huge game and I have meetings at 8 and 9. I will get to see the first hour and, with any luck, the end. My fingers are crossed for them. 

P.S. Sorry this whole post is about the Red Sox. I did do other things with the last few days, this was just the most exciting part. Is that sad? Oh well.

I DESPERATELY want to go back here! Anyone up for a quick trip to Boston tomorrow?




Best. Night. Ever!
