I had taken the sabre-tooth to the vet for his depo shot. The vet was a lady doctor that i didn't know. As she examined him she noted a place on the side of his torso that appeared to be a cavity or furrow. She said it was cancer and he should be ? something. Put to sleep? Have the tumor removed? Since i didn't know her and didn't think he seemed sick, i took him and we went over to a barn and up into the loft. There was a man up there among the many bales of hay. I think he was painting a picture. I was worried about the sabre-tooth but didn't know what to do and was asking the man what he thought.
I don't remember the circumstances but ?? asked me if i would play baseball and handed me a wooden bat. I said i'd never played baseball but had played softball a long time ago so maybe i could hit. Everybody else on the team is in uniform but i'm in my street clothes. I'm kind of excited to feel what it's like to hit a baseball with the bat. As we walk through a tunnel into the indoor baseball field, i realize that it's NC State's team and that Blade will probably be in the stands. I'm overcome with shyness and tell ?? that i can't play after all. She asks me why and i'm too embarrassed to say. I turn around and go back into the tunnel.
