It finally happened!

Every baseball season is not complete when certain things do not happen. Like when I don't strikeout 3 times in a game, or we don't see the best pitcher in the region. Well, we can cross those two off, but there's one more that has happened. EVERY year since sixth grade I have to get hit in the face with a groundball. I have taken dozens off my chest, arms, collarbone yesterday, even off my paintballing welt yesterday, but today I took one right below my left eye. But with some ice and a little butter it doesn't even look too bad and it doesn't hurt either. I was so close to making this an uneventful year, I guess that was unacceptable so I kept the streak alive.

Congratulations! Way to 'take one for the team!'
Glad you are OK!

Ouch! Glad the ice & BUTTER helped. See Ryan, butter really does help, even ask Brett. I think Ryan thinks I'm crazy when the first thing I go for after the girls get hurt is butter... but there is something magical about it. I'm glad it looks & feels better.
