I am going to level with you, my very dear group of forty (or less) followers and guests, as well:
THE RED SHEET IS MIA KERICK.
HOW SO?
Bryan Dennison is a bully and I am definitely not.
(I am eating M & M’s for breakfast…this can’t be good.)
He is a popular high school athlete. I was neither.
(Should I have left spaces, or should it be M&M?)
He is also a gay teenaged boy. And I’m not.
(M&M looks more “right” than M & M, so…)
So why is The Red Sheet PURE MIA KERICK?
(They are Red Sox M&M’s- I had to special order them)
It is because of the way Bryan Dennison thinks.
(I LOVE THE BOSTON RED SOX!!!)
Random thoughts pop into his mind.
(I am really angry at Jacoby Ellsbury for going to the Yankees!)
Bryan and I share a similar sense of humor.
(Go ahead, Jacoby, leave me like Johnny Damon did…)
The “changed” Bryan and I see the world similarly.
(Johnny Damon broke my heart when he left and donned the pinstripes.)
We see it as a place that is funny and ironic and sometimes cruel.
(And I named a cat after him- JEEZ!)
We believe that people–and the world–can change for the better.
(I booed Johnny Damon when he returned to Fenway Park for the first time.)
We both believe that we should BE the change we want to see in the World.
(I should have just held my tongue- after all, it wasn’t a personal decision on his part.)
I try so hard to treat other people the way I would like to be treated- to be helpful, and kind.
(I am sorry Johnny! I won’t ever boo another athlete…or anyone, for that matter.)
Yeah…
(Yeah…)
