ow. that was fun.
I did something today I haven't done in something like 21 years.
I played soccer at PT. I did good for about half the playing time, though there were like two or three people on my team with actual ball handling skills. The others had pseudo-skills. Me? My secret super power is getting in the way, and I WILL charge you if you have the ball. Go ahead, run into me. You will bounce off -- my XO did. I even made him grunt. I am a juggernaut when I get moving, and I'm not afraid to be aggressive. I played in a girl's league where the players were routinely called for being to aggressive. We broke each other legs for crying out loud.
Damn, I'd almost forgotten how much fun it is to be aggressive and hit people and get hit. I miss martial arts.
