That's a long title and that's a lot of thinking to do when an errant baseball is heading for you. I don't know if I've ever gotten a baseball in the head (I'd probably remember or, well, maybe not) but it's something I fear at baseball games. Tonight at my son's game, a ball headed to the side of the field where I was sitting and I was ready to take evasive action. And then I felt silly. And I wondered about whether trying not to look silly would enter into my thought process if a baseball really was heading for me. I hope not. I know that I might look odd if I jump at every little threat but I think that avoiding getting hit on the head with a very hard and fast ball is a worthwhile pursuit. So I will keep actively watching the games I attend and try to move out of the way if a ball is heading for me. Or maybe I should just wear a helmet. I'm not always in a mood to chat and that would probably take care of that issue too.
