dear sabrina:

when bill calls you up and demands to know if you are watching the sox game, and you put it on and learn that freddy garcia is in the process of throwing what will turn out to be seven and two thirds perfect innings, do not think to yourself, “this would be a good time to get in some knitting,” because what happens is you lose track of what the hell you’re supposed to be doing and have to laboriously tink back two rows of really persnickety mohair-esque yarn because you really, really can’t knit even ridiculously simple lace (by “lace” i mean it has a few yarnovers and a couple of ssks) and watch baseball at the same time.

even if the sox are taking the angels to school.

love,
–sabrina.
