Good conversation and bad baseball

It's a good thing that my partner in conversation was from across the pond and didn't know much about baseball because the product on the field was extremely sub-par. Missed double plays, fighting for infield pop ups, and who can forget the batter who made it first on a strike out?! Such is life for baseball fans in the DC area as we get treated to bad baseball in a great park. Needless to say, the Nats lost 8-4.

Luckily for me there was great conversation, and interesting topics at that. Questions that I had no clue existed a year ago popped up and I kept thinking.......'a year ago, I would have answer that this way, but now, I have to say this.' Different perspectives were presented to me and I provided my own insight....and after all was said and done, I still can't say I'm more informed on the questions presented. They did cause me to think about my life and the decisions I've made in the past.......and after all that, I think Don Henley said it best......."the more I know, the less I understand."

More later.......
