LAST EDITED ON Oct-09-11 AT 05:10PM (MST)[p]Just enjoying the last few hours of a beautiful, quiet Sunday afternoon before I have to go back to work in a few hours. I am upstairs more or less cat napping savoring some peace and quiet when all of the sudden, WHACK!! BOOM!!! SMASH!! followed by screaming of every kind mingled with the unmistakable sound of shards of glass chattering on their way to the ground. I'm thinking WTH as my heart goes from near sleeping pace to 130 BPM. Go downstairs and see glass in the kitchen and my 4X8 double pane window somewhat deformed as it lay in dime size pieces on the floor. Daughter is holding her head crying and I'm still trying to figure out WTH happened.
Well, the good news is it was not a drive by. Bad news is I was a victim of a crime perpetrated by the dang children of the sandlot. Kid over in the neighbors yard (which just happens to have a really nice fully enclosed batting cage) tosses one in the air and whacks a grand slam. Only problem was he was not in the batting cage. Ball comes over pops my glass and smacks the daughter in the noggin. Was actually pretty funny all said and done. Quickly turned to hysterical laughing by the time the neighbors walked the green mile to my front door.

Glad nobody got hurt!
