the agony & the ecstasy

i have other shirts to share with you ... in time ...
but let me tell you about KICKBALL last night. we had a scrimmage against another team ... i wasn't too excited about playing but only cuz i was scared ... i just don't want to do anything that would either make me look foolish or be detrimental to the team. whatever, i shouldn't have been worried cuz the other team was pretty rag-tag. their entire team didn't show up so we had to split up everyone into 2 teams so that we could play. first the agony: while running (from psycho shocker steve, our team's coach!) to third base i managed to wipe out and eat dirt ... here's the damage

doesn't look too bad in the picture (and they look all scabby today) ... it hurt like hell ... cleaning ground dirt out of your knee is NOT fun ... but i was kinda proud that i walked away with my first battle scars ... hopefully they'll be that last ... i somehow doubt it tho ...
now the ecstasy: the same psycho shocker steve (team's coach) kicked a flyball about 85 feet into the air and it was headed right for me ... i exclaimed "oh god! oh god! oh god! oh god!" and managed to catch the ball and get him OUT. it was pretty cool ... and i have one person to thank for that stunning catch

all in all it was a fun night and i'm glad i went ... tho the excruciating shower afterwards was NOT FUN ...
we spent the rest of the night on the couch ... not moving ... but watching buffy :)
