I survived the baseball game.

I spent the first hour and a half watching the game out of the corner of my eye while I devoured a hot dog, a huge bag of Cracker Jacks, a cup of frozen lemonade, and an ice cream cone.

I spent the next hour and a half knitting a scarf.

In between, I held an infant in my lap.

The whole afternoon was such a bizarre mix of the familiar and the terrifyingly foreign that I didn’t really know what to do with myself afterwards, so I just went home and took a nap.

    Jess and Jill: You are sworn to secrecy. I had a traumatic week last week and I’m still recovering.

    Napping is an excellent defense mechanism. I try to employ it daily, when possible.

    Thank the Lord! We heard that a 13 year old went missing at a recent Yankee’s game and we feared the worst. Thank God for diazapam… and vodka.

    Does this post hold any kind of record for “largest number of cryptic references to deleted comments”?

    Well, I am always hypnotized by Derek Jeter’s ass. Can’t believe you didn’t even notice it.
