Uncle

Is there a vocational training program for soccer moms? Where do I sign up? Because I am at a total loss for how to do this, and did not fare well on my first sports outing.

Today was the long-awaited opening day for t-ball, and the two younger children and I went to to watch Logan make his debut on the field with his daddy, the coach. Because of the crowds, we parked quite a distance from the field, but we jogged along and made it just in time to see Logan and his dad running the bases during introductions. I snapped photos wildly, not knowing whether I was getting anything in the glare, juggling the camera and a child and trying not to step on the other parents’ gear. After that, things went downhill, fast.

I was looking for secret service men with sniper rifles, or, maybe in this case, squirt guns.  From my vantage point in the *taint* area - that wonderfully mysterious area between 1st and 2nd bases with no name but always occupied by a tballer - no one sits on the bench, dammit!! it looked like a political campaign stop complete with Jr Color guard, colorful banners, baseball (can’t get more American than that), high school sensation, uhyawhatshername? who you WILL know after she aces the finals on American Idol hopefully singing her rendition of the National Anthem again.

Better bring a stroller and a few barrettes next time! I have confidence in you. Any mommy who comes up with popsicles in the bathtub can surely overcome the odds here.

I did have a barrette before Daphne got on my shoulders… she must have pulled it off and dropped it on the way to the car, which is really too bad because it was my favorite blue crystal treasure…

About the stroller… [ahem]

TO THE SCUMBAG WHO STOLE THE DOUBLE STROLLER FROM OUR GARAGE:

You have good taste. The Combi Double Savvy is a fine piece of equipment. That’s why it cost $400 goddamned dollars. Thanks a lot. I cannot afford to replace it, but I sure hope you enjoy it. Asshole.
