UM. YOUR PANTS ARE FALLING.

April 29, 2014


Let's talk about that time I decided to play softball with my co-workers so I can try something new. Then, let's talk about how for nearly four games I batted several times and never ever hit the ball. Third, let's talk about the last time I go to bat and actually hit the ball, throw the bat (apparently a no-no), and then proceed to run only to realize my shorts are a little too loose. Now, let's finish this story with the fact that my shorts didn't actually fall off because luckily (and gracefully) I was holding them up with one hand while trying to run with the other. Let's get the momentum going... Needless to say, I was out. The ball definitely made it into the glove of the first baseman before my galloping body had a chance of touching the base.

Lesson #1: Tighten the string on your shorts.
Lesson #2: Learn how to run again.
Lesson #3: Pat yourself on the back for knowing that without holding your shorts up with one hand, you'd have a much more embarrassing story to tell...

I am so glad that's over. Aren't you?

    1. You can "throw" the bat gently, you cannot hurl it at someone...Haha.

  4. Yikes!! I played softball one night for my husband's company team and the softball hit me in the foot and I cried. He was the one who was embarrassed, I was just a baby!

    1. Oh my goodness! I am sorry you got hit in the foot. A student almost got hit in the head with the ball and my facial expression was priceless. I was in shock!

  6. At least if gives you a good laugh. Like I always tell my husband {and now my son} "If this is the worst thing that happened to you today - I think you will be fine." :)
