Only a little bit about baseball

I have to wonder what I'm going to write about after the World Series. I'm not sure if I'll have the time and energy to think of new and interesting things, or if escaping after weeks of sleep deprivation will make things seem less funny than do now.

Yesterday I had extra tickets to the game and did my usual bit to sell them- StubHub plus temple listserv. They sold on StubHub, but the first responses to the listserv weren't about buying the tickets, they were asking if I could drive their kids to the game. I was caught off-guard by that, but I actually did drive a couple of kids that I know slightly whose parents couldn't go (one's sick and one's running for office and just a tad busy the night before Election Day) and couldn't drive. It was very helpful to them and they were excellent company, as it turned out.

Going into the Series I was looking for drama, and the last 2 games certainly delivered. Two teams that never give up and always assume they can overcome whatever deficit they face.
