Really, you want me to drive to Michigan...this sunday????

okay, its not really Michigan but it may as well be...my kid has a double header, baseball in some town 80 miles from here which entails crossing a river over a skinny bridge, driving up a windy road that looks like Pacific Coast Highway to a dusty baseball field where hopefully the boys will not get mercied by boys that are 12 years old and 6 feet tall....yes go 30 miles north of here, like last weekend at 8:30 in the morning and the boys got mercied 23 to 2 and 12 to 1...YIKES!!! only good news...i picked up some sun and got to stop at a great craft shop....seriously you give me the name of ONE...all i need is one professional baseball player that is from suburban westchester and i might think that there is a possibility that driving 160 miles on a Sunday might be worth it...but really these kids are short, cute and nice...but short and not going to the pros...i know it is so nice to think they might...but really where is the motivation...they have fancy cars, nice homes, mostly go to private school...in fact most of them have iphones.....really the major leagues...i think not...but it is my pleasure to watch them play ball...i yell and scream encouragingly...i focus and actually keep track of pitch counts and know what 'protect the plate' and other silly saying means...but really 160 miles on a Sunday for a U12 ball game...i think not.
