NY Mets 2006 NL East Champions!!
I believe in the church of baseball. I've tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones.I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic's rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I learned that, I gave Jesus a chance. But it just didn't work out between us. The Lord laid too much guilt on me. I prefer metaphysics to theology. You see, there's no guilt in baseball. And it's never boring, which makes it like sex...It's a long season and you gotta trust it. I've tried them all, I really have, and the only church that truly feeds the soul, day in, day out, is the church of baseball - Annie Savoy Bull Durham

into the woods...sort of
i am outta here to camp for a week in maine. well, kind of camp. we aren't exactly going to be roughing it unless you call a week without internet roughing it. lol. but mom got a new trailer and that means we go camping--apparently. i am sure we will have fun once we are there but right now i am just feeling stressed.
while i am gone go on over to the book group and join in the harry potter discussion.
