But I was sorely tempted when this guy showed up on my windowsill in the middle of a drenching storm on Saturday.

| | Re "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." | | He had the overhang from the roof. That's why he chose that spot.
Took him an awful long time to dry off enough to be able to fly again. I was also tempted to offer him a blow dryer, but I didn't think he'd appreciate it all that much.

| | Re "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." | | Ack! There's a theme developing. This is the view from my fishbowl right now: Attachment 1939
I'm afraid to see what will show up at my window next.

| | Re "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." | | That's giving me flashbacks. I got grazed in the head by a foul ball last night. Almost knocked some sense into me.

I think I'd be less frightened of the squirrel than the bird.

Nope. Didn't catch it. It took a while before I figured out what was going on. Talk about having to be smacked upside the head.
And I wouldn't mind seeing that outside my window. As long as the water stayed on the other side of the glass.

| | Re "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." | | No I didn't have a foul ball close by. I had 3 of them. Not including batting practice, which is when I had my close encounter. You'll be pleased to know it was a Sox ball that beaned me.

| | Re "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." | | Nah. Just teasing me. Happens all the time. So much so that (after the beaning) I took this picture and made it my wallpaper at work. Attachment 1941

| | Re "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." | | 3 ? And you didn't snag one for me?
What was Chip doing? (Well, maybe I don't want to know)
Oh man, I have never caught a ball at a major league game. I did, however, snag a pretty soft opposite field liner one day when I was sitting behind first base. Caught it with my off-hand just inches from my wife's face. The wife who forgot to duck, that is.
(So it was a Class A game and the kid reached across the plate to lunge at a breaking ball on the outside corner of the plate. Still counts! :P)
Man, I can't believe you didn't snag 1 of the 3 and then take it down to the Sox clubhouse to have it autographed. What kind of friend are you, Yankee-lover? |
