Cristiane commiserates:
No joy in Mudville – Mighty Carlos has struck out. Sigh. Please give Toaster a consoling hug for me. At least now I can watch the Series without a care in the world.
Toaster is absolutely devastated.
Especially after we had all screamed for Willie to bunt Valentin and Chavez over in the bottom of the 9th.
Toaster cried all night. We tried our best to cheer him up. Teapot sang “Lullabye” to him about 400 times.
Goodnight, my angel
Time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you’ve been asking me
I think you know what I’ve been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far awayGoodnight, my angel
Now it’s time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you sang for me
When we went sailing on an emerald bay
And like a boat out on the ocean
I’m rocking you to sleep
The water’s dark
And deep inside this ancient heart
You’ll always be a part of meGoodnight, my angel
Now it’s time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child may cry
And if you sing this lullabye
Then in your heart
There will always be a part of meSomeday we’ll all be gone
But lullabyes go on and on…
They never die
That’s how you
And I
Will be
He’s still crying.
It’s a good thing he’s not plugged in, lest he electrocute himself.
We are at our wit’s end ….
