Still slumpin’
It’s sad to admit this, but I’m starting to get frustrated by the simple fact that I have not had a hit all week! Today I was 0-3, which makes an 0-7 week. What’s worse is we lost again, this time 8-5, and if I would have gotten a couple of hits, things could have ended up a lot different!
I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I had three pop outs tonight — well, two pop outs and one deep fly ball that was nearly a triple or a homer. I just can’t understand what it is that has changed. Maybe I’m dropping my hands when I swing, thus getting under the ball? I don’t know! And it’s really frustrating, because I was hitting so well, and all of a sudden I’ve been an awful hitter this week. I was batting really well, hitting triples and homers. This week, I’ve become pretty ineffective.
So, I’m kind of bummed. I realize it’s just a silly game of softball, but it means a lot to me that I play well. I hate making errors or outs that can be avoided.
Do me a favor, will ya? Pray for me, on two counts. One, that I will not worry so much about how I’m batting and not let it bother me too much. Two, that I will actually start hitting better! Thanks so much. 
I really like softball, and I like it much more when I feel like I’m contributing to the team’s efforts.
Well, that about does it. I feel kind of silly that this bothers me so much. But I guess we all have different pieces of our personalities that makes us unique!
Oh, on a side note… we’re planning on going to Six Flags on Saturday! Hurrah! The deal is, we need to go this weekend to have our season passes processed if we want to take advantage of a promo they have going on, where each season-pass holder gets a free ticket. So, we’re shooting for Saturday. It ought to be fun stuff!
Maybe a couple of rides on Batman and The Boss will set me straight and correct my softball swing.
