Grand Slam

Today was a lovely day at the ballpark.

Especially for Reggie Sanders (2-for-4 with a grand slam, a 2-run single and a National League Division Series-record 6 RBIs).

This was Reggie as he stepped on home plate.

Yeah, I was in the nosebleed seats (Section 334), but I wasn’t about to let THAT stop me!

: )

This was, in many ways, an amazing day. And I am exhausted.

Today I learned a little bit more — and something very big — about someone I’m close to. And it’s not necessarily something good ... more like a mixture of good AND bad ... yet it felt nice, actually, to have him share a confidence with me. And open himself up like that. ’Cause that’s never an easy thing to do.

Still: I fear what the future might hold.

And yet: The whole world could change in an instant, anyway, so why be afraid, anyhow?

And then tonight, I heard from a girl who means more to me than I ever will to her. (She always seems to make me smile; I am hopeful that, occasionally, I do the same for her.)
