Berming


So the Richard women are out of town. Gone on a girls' weekend with Julie's mom, her sisters and their daughters.

Joseph and I are back home batching in the ATX. Driving to school and listening to a morning sports show, the guest is Reid Ryan, CEO of the Round Rock Express. They're the AAA affiliate of the Astros. When he says their home opener is Friday night, Joseph & I look at each other and we had our plan.

I dropped him at school, came home and bought two tickets to sit on the outfield berm ($6 per!) to watch the game. It was an absolutely perfect night...Not a lot of cash and a lifetime of memories and male bonding. Joseph created a new verb, berming, to describe sitting on the berm watching baseball.

I hate it when Julie's out of town. But Friday Night Berming definitely took the edge off missing her.
