It's not just because of Chase Utley

Today, we played softball again. This time it was just Josh, Megan, Jarrett, Ficus, and myself. I am really into batting, and I think I'm getting better at it again, as I remember how to swing. On fielding, I'm pretty decent at getting grounders, but my arm is still too weak to play any position but second base. I'm not so great at catching pop flies, and there's that arm problem, so I don't foresee playing the outfield. I'm not really tall enough to be a good target at first base, and I don't have the arm range to play shortstop or third, and I don't have the accuracy to be a pitcher, so I'm thinking aside from maybe catcher, it'll be second base for me. I'll be like the first left-handed second baseman ever!

We may end up playing in a league as soon as next week, and for 6 Wednesdays in a row. Scary. I hope we go to a batting cage sometime before then.

Megan has no hair.

I ran a few errands after softball, and I have been spending the rest of the evening on something creative (what else is new?). I should go to sleep.

I started reading "Now Pitching, Bob Feller" today. I'm three chapters in and it's already awesome. I must freak people out on the bus sometimes when I have my nose buried in a baseball biography book and there's just this huge contented grin on my face.

This is a useful post about the upcoming Seattle bus changes when the tunnel closes.
