@theashleyray I went to a magnet CPS elementary school with excellent teachers and my journalist mom went through my papers LINE BY LINE copy editing me in real time while I whined.
Twenty-five years ago, my mom left for work and never came home. Five years ago, on the twentieth anniversary of 9/11, I wrote about how my twelve-year-old self leaned on the @Yankees in my grief, seeking catharsis in the team that had taught me to believe.
