Hair Ball

Went to watch The Cheerleader cheer at a game tonight. Her mom, freshly out of jail and thankfully still clean and sober, came to the game also and it was nice to see them interact. I haven't been to a basketball game since I last cheered back in 1991. It was fun to witness The Cheerleader in her element ... my old element at my alma mater. All the kids running around were easily recognizable as so and so's child since just about everybody still lives out there and it's a very small town. A couple of younger kids sitting in front of us would yell out "hairball" any time a player would shoot an air ball. Kidspeak cracks me up.
