Today the brand spanking new Yank-A-Part softball team takes the field. My dad's wrecking yard business sponsored our team this year so we got those awesome new shirts you see above you.
This year Joel is doing most of the "captain" responsibilities because I didn't want to anymore. You can take the girl out of the captain position, but you can't take the captain out of the girl. I spent a great deal of time negotiating his "line-up" last night, but in the end I realized I needed to step back and let him handle this. He can be the one to listen to people complain (including myself, obviously).
I am really excited about the team this year. It's not about how good you are, it's about how much fun you have and how well you get along, and we definitely seem to have that in our favor. We got a lot of new players, but they all came from somebody who knew somebody already on the team, so it's not like they were strangers or anything.
I had requested the afternoon off today because Rachel has vacation this week and I wanted to spend at least one day of it with her. I got the whole day off and I'm pretty psyched about that. It's going to be 90 and the pool is all ready for my big butt to sit in it. Or near it. No bikini though, Rachel, sorry to disappoint. I've retired the big brown monster for the year.
