I don't know what our record is, but I know it's 0-and-however-many-games-we've-played. I think we're 0-7. Regardless, I think we're having fun. I didn't even cuss at our last doubleheader. I did, however, punch my pastor and use some less-than-holy language with him. But it was his fault, as he had a bad attitude.
For the most part, we all have fun every week. Sure, we are all competitive folks, so we don't enjoy losing, but overall we have a good time. I'm loving every minute of getting to hang with the guys. Probably the most frustrating part about being on staff at church with lots of Sunday morning responsibility is I don't get to chat with many people on Sunday mornings when the church is together. So softball is my way of connecting with the guys.
Plus, I'm playing better defense, and my average is (probably) up over .400. And I'm no longer only hitting ground balls. So life is good. Still no extra-base hits, but I am quite slow, so it's ok.
And The Tobe comes to early games to watch Dada. He likes to give me high fives when I'm in the dugout. And he likes to steal my hat. And he likes to steal my water bottle. And sometimes he likes to eat dirt. He seems to like being at the ballfields.
UPDATE: We are now 0-8. Tonight, we got Run Ruled. It was much less fun. I'm getting very tired of losing so much. And the umps suck too... they have no clue.
