I flipped off a UPS driver the other day when he cut me off..does that count as conversing with one?
Sorry no.
It is the contempt in your eyes and false clap that does it.

That was one of the main reasons I would go to DD's practices until she got a car and they practiced 4-7pm in the 100 degree heat in the summers. Fall ball was my thing.DD's JH/HS coaches run a weekly "open field" for any girls going into 7th or 8th grades. It's every Tuesday night during June and July. Parents don't have to stay (it's almost 2-hours long), but there is always a group of Dads who hang out in the stands. We basically talk softball for a couple hours while we watch our DD's go through reps. It's great.
sounds like me, but add in field hockey and swimming as well.Just to be nice, colleagues at work or other acquaintances will sometimes ask about my DD and how her softball is going. That's all the opening I need. 20 minutes later they are blankly staring at me as I continue my monologue of unwanted insights about recent tournaments or pitching mechanics. I almost feel bad about it...
When DD was 1 yr old I had a client who's kid was playing TB, and I even have a 2nd place trophy from one of their golf tourney fundraisers. I called him one day and he sounded excited. I asked what is going on? I am in Colorado at the Fireworks and my kid just hit a bomb with Jo Evans from A&M watching. I thought to myself, that sounds cool...I guess.Before my DDs ever played any softball I used to sit near a quality assurance guy in the avionics repair lab that I worked at. He coached softball and that's all he would talk about. The rest of us would listen politely, but we all thought he was crazy. Some were convinced he had to be a pedophile. What kind of weirdo travels all around the country with teenage girls who play softball?
