made my season debut in the majors. went 1-4 in the game by beating out an infield hit to first, had a couple of put-outs from somewhere in the infield (SS?). very exciting. i'd played a few games here and there in the previous couple of seasons but mostly stuck around in the minors. after the game a veteran came over to me and was asking me about myself, saying i looked like i had the stuff to stay in the bigs if i kept working hard.
after the game a friend of my ex-gf and i was driving me home and we were talking about her. apparently she was looking to date a guy who was kind of the opposite of me, and the friend named a guy as an example who's kind of a loser. i was flabbergasted. we drove by my ex-gf's house and a big group of people were gathered there. my ex had cut her hair short and dyed it dirty-blond -- not a great look. she could barely make eye contact with me and greeted me with a kind of sullen "hi." i was sad, didn't understand why we couldn't have a more normal interaction. the people were eating papaya and i was offered some but declined so i could get out of there.
fin.
not difficult to see where the inspiration comes from, given that i was watching a major league ballgame last night in the town where my ex lives.
