Baseball

So Monday I decided to go to the North Central baseball game to watch Eric help coach. I figured it would be a nice time to take Mugsy out, and it kept me from having to run all over the house trying to watch him. It was a beautiful day! Perfect for a ball game. I knew it started at 4:30, so when I got off work at 5:00, I raced home to get the dog and get to the game. I had no need to race. When I got there at 5:30, they were in the second inning. SECOND!! Well, I arranged my chair and sat so that Mugsy couln't be a nuisance to anyone. Several kids came to play with him. It was a great day! Until the game drug on and on. Eric asked me to go get his coat out of his car because he was cold. When the sun went down and it started to cool off, I realized that I hadn't prepared for a long game. I had no coat! So I sat there for the rest of the game, freezing, trying to hold as still as possible for Mugsy, who was sound asleep in my lap. Mosquitos were biting me, however I needed to hold still. Mugsy's so much cuter when he's asleep!! The game finally ended at 8:10. Yes that's right. It was a 3 hour 40 minute game. I will never go to another ball game unprepared for any kind of weather!
