i’m waiting for a pizza. there is a girl who has to be 4 to 5 years old, waiting here with her dad for their dinner.

she is wearing a well-worn pink baseball hat.

i wish i still had the raw emotion in me that she surely has for that pink baseball hat.

nba_live_shirt_1 nba_live_shirt_2

no note.  no indication of where this came from, why it was delivered to me, or if it is covered in disease (geoff’s idea, not mine).  and so i googled the crap out of this address and got things like this and this.  mysterious envelopes, unrelated to each other, sent with no reason.  so, i’m a bit confused, bemused (nba live 09 sucks!) and maybe a tad perturbed.  but only maybe.

it goes without saying, but if anyone has any idea where this shirt came from, i’d love to hear from you.
