Byebye baseball

so the world series has begun. Go Texas! Yes yes, I know that isn't big news and you probably are wondering why the heck I have a post about this but just listen.

Last baseball season, I didn't give a crap. I wasn't a fan and never watched. Everyone would talk about it but I would just be like eww. It is "America's past time" but I really couldn't care less. But then there was this season. I watched. I watched a lot. I avidly followed our team. I even went to a game. I got a Mauer shirt. I learned the game and actually knew what was going on. I even enjoyed it. Basically, I turned into quite the fan.

And at this point, you may be wondering about why there was such the change in my baseball views. Well seeing as I am in fact a teenage girl, I bet you can guess pretty well were that came from... a teenage boy.

I had been difficult at first, sticking with my old ways, but I finally sat down and watched a game. It was hard for me to admit it to him, but he was right. I loved it. And of course I loved it that much more just because he had been the one to introduce me to it. And then it kinda became our thing. We would keep each other posted on scores and what not. We had conversations about it. When we would hang out over this summer, we usually watched one of the many games. It was yet another thing that brought us together.

So now that my first baseball season as a fan is coming to a close, it's kinda sad. I already know that I am going to miss it. Of course, there is always next year :) and maybe the Twins will finally do better!
