But first, just a brief entry.
Chris and I were on the subway and I saw a crinkled-up New York Post hiding underneath one of the seats. I could make out the back page that said something like "Red Sox are Floundering." My heart raced and I could feel my stress level increase. Another September is here and I need to avert my eyes from gazing into sports bars as I walk down the streets of New York City. Anyhow, we got off the train in Brooklyn and were walking home when we overheard a man behind us. He was talking to his date about "those Red Sox fans."
"I don't understand them. They're still a game and half ahead and they act like they've already lost."
I looked up at Chris as we crossed the street, raised my eyebrows, and imagined the blissful existence of a baseball fan who has never routed for the Red Sox...who has never been tortured in the Autumn season.

Oh I KNOW! The stress and pain and living in "enemy territory" can get overwhelming.
-sigh-
