Went to Fenway a couple of times. The first time was but the second time, not so much. Took my 4 year old to a game on my birthday. Had fun with my kid, sure, but Fenway wasn't built for people my size.

I’m sitting out back watching TV and I suffer with bad allergies.

I just sneezed repetitively 10 times and now I have to go inside for a tissue because the 11th sneeze caused an infant sized snot bubble.

TMI?
