finally home again

softball after work with captain d's dinner in between... fried seafood, broccoli, fries, and dr. pepper... probably ate too much after not eating all day which caused some gastric bypass or something like that... had to rush to the bathroom in target after the game and it wasn't pretty, but hey, the body can be quite gross what with all it's waste production and removal needs, among other things... and so a shower and now, sitting on the couch with curious (cuz she seems to be getting in this habit of coming out to get petted and rubbed and then curl up next to me and nap as long as i sit here and i am not looking to break her of this new habit cuz it helps me remember (tangible proof) how sensitive and empathic and caring i can be and it's pure enough for an older (she's 12) feline to instantly sense and respond to (sadly, most humans are not as sensitive as curious)...

meanwhile, thursday night softball continues to be a relative fiasco... prayers before and after the game tonight, it being a church team in a not church league... nothing helped though... all twelve people showed up, including the one who seems to quit somewhere along the line in every game (and why they bat him first is a mystery, but then, the whole batting order is a mystery to me and the disorderly team is bringing my focus down more and more each week)... they bat me last or near last and always put in a runner for me and i have one of the highest batting averages on the team (even with stinking up the last few weeks) and i am far from the slowest runner on the team and some of the guys just don't seem to be on the same page... and we lost 18-14... a few game up at 14-11 and the errors (some due to not being ready warmed up and some due to just giving up and our shortstop really lets way too many balls get through)... but the team we played are full of excellent hitters and so, whatever...

it's more fun to win championships with players who don't give up... still, fun was found even through the fatigue... and now, as the tv tells me that the football game is over (go indy, i guess), i ponder (been doing a lot of that lately, aye?) my navel and next move (sleep would be good here) and as usual, that leads to some bullsugar again, as usual... jackson and the kids are asleep and i should be too...

nite nite? :)
