Softball Update
yeah, so, this past weekend we had yet another tournament. i was so happy i got to play! i didnt think my doctor would let me, considering i broke my nose only a week ago, but i did. we did okay, the first day we played three games. the first one, at 8:30 in the morning, we tied because the time limit ran out, but i had a feeling if we had continued, we would have won. the next two we lost. the third game was...hmm...how do i put this...unfair would be the nice way to put it. the ump at the plate could not have done a worse job. and one time, at the end of the game, he screwed up meg's count! it was 2-1, and then she was thrown a strike, and he's like you're out! we were like, okay, that doesnt make any sense, did we just miss two whole pitches or something? because once we asked him, he's like i said that count was 3-2. needless to say, we were not happy. and then there was a whole big thing with that parents, who were beginning to piss me off! they were complaining we were using up the time limit to make sure michelle was okay, who'd gotten hit in the cheek with a ball. and they were yelling to the umps to get a move on! i was like, shut the hell up! i wanted to throw the ball at them, but i had a feeling it might have made matters worse... ;P but anyways, then today we played the Cougars, which is half the Dover High Varsity team, but we game them a run for their money. needless to say, i think we all knew that we could have done better, but it's over now and i'm not worrying about it. but then our last tournament is coming up this weekend. we're having a team sleepover once again at my house just to get the team together off the field so that we can all talk. i'm telling you, i dont know what i'm going to do without seeing my girls every weekend and two nights a week. they seriously have become my family, and i dont know what i'm going to do once the season's over... i'm going to miss them so much. i dont think they even know how great they made my summer...to tell you the truth, i was a little skeptical about playing this year, but once we started, ALL of my doubts faded. i have been having the time of my life. during tournaments, i'm so happy to be there! i'm always in the best of moods whenever i'm with my girls. i never want to be anywhere else, and i wouldnt trade it for anything. i dont even mind getting up at 5:30 in the morning for 8 oclock games anymore. i just wish that it wouldnt be over so soon...you girls really have made my summer the best one in a long time. granted, we still have a tournament this weekend (that we're going to win), so it's not over yet, but thank you just the same and as much. other than that, i havent really been doing anything. hanging out with my band friends a couple times, not many, mostly with my softball girls. babysitting a whole lot, got cash out of that, that's always good. umm...and then i leave for Canada in two weeks. yay! i cant wait! but yeah, that's about it.
