Small Things I Enjoy in New York – Part I

OK, I’m starting a new series of posts (that’s right… a series as in more than one post.) I want to introduce some of the little things that I enjoy about New York that aren’t published in any books. And the first one is that quintessentially nerdy sport that inspired an equally nerdy movie – Dodgeball.

Yeah, you read that correctly. I’ve been playing on a “league” dodgeball team this winter, and it has been a thoroughly enjoyable and humorous experience. Haven’t you ever gotten the urge to hurl something at someone as hard as you can? Well, maybe you haven’t because you are one of those rare and wonderful people who never harbor any negative thoughts toward anyone (I’m looking at you Hatcher.) Well, I certainly have! And in dodgeball, I can even hurl something at girls. I know it sounds vicious and cruel, but it’s actually a lot of fun. This week someone on the other team wore a University of Florida shirt which was a mistake on her part that I tried to help her realize. (OK, I’m not actually a very good aim, but I did throw it at her a lot.)

  • I was using the term Hatcher in the generic sense of the word... like the royal we. I don't know what that means.
  • Do you mean this Hatcher? Because 50% of the Hatcher name definitely harbors negative thoughts (is that bad to admit?) But I do know that today is a rare day here b/c it is raining and John had to move my car a good distance b/c our neighborhood is getting repaved, then he had to take the trash bin out and then traffic was horrible to get on the highway...I'm thinking he might hurl something today!! Besides that, sounds like a fun game. Can't wait to see what else you enjoy in New Yord!!
