As of late, the weather here has not exactly been cooperating. The field we play our games at does not have a field tarp so if it rains, then the field goes underwater and we can’t play. Well the last two days it has been raining, and we got today, Monday, off so really we didn’t play for three consecutive days. All of you out there who thinks that this is a blessing to have three days off in Hawaii, think again. When you are in a place with a job to do and then you don’t get to do that job, well, us ballplayers don’t really know what else to do. I hate to say this but yes, I have been a little bored out here the last couple days. Just when I thought that I had played enough baseball for the year, I find myself wishing that I was playing more. Another thing I realized, is that I am going to go from basically 7 months of summer, straight to winter. For me there’s no fall, no adjustment period just back to life as I’m used to. Ok, that was neither here nor there, I just got to thinking about my situation regarding the weather. So now I am stuck somewhere in the middle of wanting to be done with the season while simultaneously just want to play ball. It’s a funny thing what this game can do to one’s mind, and for me, for now, I’ll just keep waking up and praying for no rain.
