I just loved sitting on her lap, spending time with her and eating good food with her. Then I would fall asleep in her lap.<br />I did however, like the Yankees when Bucky Dent played for them, just because he had a cute butt in his uniform. <br />Hope you had a fantastic time at opening day. =)Lorie Shewbridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17021526379136899314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-54597340331423055892011-04-08T21:31:16.719-04:002011-04-08T21:31:16.719-04:00Baseball has always been a great metaphor for life...Baseball has always been a great metaphor for life and growth.

Ironically, I married a Red Sox fan and had to convert as part of the marriage contract. That was 2001, pretty much just in time to see the curse lifted and to remember how great life was before puberty. <br /><br />Thanks for a great post.Nicole Leigh Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02042126240711460836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478885332727102848.post-22012017254836168132011-04-08T00:16:38.217-04:002011-04-08T00:16:38.217-04:00Dude, you're the mostest!

I'll be sure not to root too hard against them.<br /><br />Oh, by the way...one of my best friends knows Keith Osik very well. Went to high school together or something. Osik is now coaching baseball at a local college around here.Verdant Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139591223231428391noreply@blogger.com
