It's just a little over a week until the boys of summer play at the Bricktown Ballpark. I, for one, can't wait. I know the Blazers are still gutting it out in the playoffs but I'm ready for the outside air, green grass and line drives.

I promise for all of those who sit along the first baseline, I'll try and contain my excitement this year. Last year I was...shall we say...a little distracting for some.

As my friend Brent loves to point out, he's never seen anything like it before and he should know...he played baseball into college. I don't even remember the joke but he said something funny, I laughed and even the first base coach noticed. Unknown to me, the coach heard, turned around and said to us, "she's having a good time."

I got so embarassed! If you can tell from this blog, that doesn't happen very often to me.

I hid my face and told everyone around me sorry, especially Brent. In true fashion he said it was awesome that I got the attention of the coach. So, of course, that made me laugh even louder.

The coach turned around AGAIN and said, "wherever you guys are going after the game, I want to be invited."

I don't know if Brent will take me to another baseball game or even sit next to me but Redhawks I'll be there, laughing ever so quietly along the first baseline.
