The power of ritual!
Well I could not make it to work out with my coach today. I told him short notice too, so that made me feel like shit. I am also feeling very feminine because he told me I should just go ahead and shave because of the warm temperatures. I reminded him that it is going to get back cold again tomorrow, but I do pay him to tell me what to do. I had better get faster! I have even been debating whether or not to go to his group sessions he has on saturday mornings to boost the process. He told me once I get faster that I can join in and run with all his high school pupils, who are shooting to wind up running in college, I am going to get smoked. I am shaved, and I am a better athlete because of it. Hey the biggest lie you can tell, is to yourself. The best things about lies are the more you tell yourself, the more you believe it. Don't know if I can keep up this shaved thing though. For a hairy fucker like myself it requires a lot of effort. Persistance leads to victory. Now we will see how short I fall.
Oh yeah! First softball game of the season is tonight! I am TOTALLY pumped! I do not have my fake gold chains yet, but we don't have our jerseys yet anyhow, so I wont be in full uniform. The shaving will help out with the softball too.
On to the softball. In our league there are STOLEN BASES! As if getting coached up for the running wasn't going to help me out enough in the outfield, or turning a comfortable single into a double. I will be able to use it to steal a base! We have a VERY fast and youthful team. We are supposed to be in a tough division, which is good. I have a problem of only giving half effort when playing against poor competition, so now that I have the idea that we are in the toughest division, I should be going nuts. I will keep my fingers crossed.
