Kyoo 152

I'll get right to the point and ignore the embellishments tonight.

I ripped a hole in the crotch of my shorts on my ride to work this morning. They just caught on my seat and the rest was history. Surveying the damage, I realized that this was a full-scale rip. It covered all its bases. It went up. It went down. It went to the left. And it went to the right. A gaping hot cross bun in the middle of my seat.

Great!

As I pedaled on, I consoled myself that it wouldn't be much of a problem. No one was likely to notice it during my spinning class later that evening (when I'd have to don the shorts again), and I always played right field in my softball games. I'd be fine!

Right?

Well, I made it through my spinning class with no issues. Shortly after I trekked to the softball field with just a couple minutes to spare before the game. I grabbed my glove, waved at my coach, and headed to my normal spot in right field. Unfortunately, I never made it there. Two steps onto the dirt and these infamous words soared out of her mouth:

"Teagan, I think I'll have you play catcher tonight."

It took all of .000002739 seconds to put two and two together.

Houston, we have a problem.

Hm. Disbelief. The day I have the crotch hole of crotch holes and I randomly get asked to play catcher. I really should have expected that. If there's anything that my life has taught me, it's that I need to just expect stuff like that and laugh.

So that's what I did. I laughed, said "Okay!", and played catcher. Thank goodness I didn't have to give little hand signals...

And to top off this post, which, if you really think about it, should have you in tears by now, I share with you this sign that caught my eye:

All

Children
Will Be

Free Puppy

Have a great day :)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Boy! That was good! It makes it even better now that I think back to our brief but obviously very important conversation this morning about you remembering to wear a crucial article of clothing today. Good thing both incidences didn't happen on the same day! ;) Although... that may have made the story EVEN better! HAHAHA! Oh man... I'm still laughing, it hurts. Not gonna lie, your life is very entertaining.
