i play a lot of soccer. sometimes i exert myself too much, and have to puke afterwards -from dehydration as far as i can tell. then, the next morning i complain to my boss about how i'm severely wrecked from the night before. recently, she's started saying "good night, don't get into any fights, and try not to puke!" i used to respond by saying, "oh don't worry, it's coed tonight, you can't really get into a fight then." well...
a couple of weeks ago, while going up for a header, this guy pushed me in the back, then elbowed the side of my head. The ball sailed over both of us, and just for good measure, this jerk took a swing at me with his foot! so, when we made it back to the ground i gave him a little shove, just to let him know i felt it. we proceeded to start a shoving match, the chest bump came into play and it ended with a yellow card. BUT! before it was all over, i got in the last word, with this little gem.
"What? Am I supposed to be scared, because you're fat?"
Who I'd like to meet:
people who want to talk about and make art. those want to maybe drink a few beers, and shoot the breeze. also, i'm quite fond of smarties, like me, who could go deep into a philosophical discussion, or political debate, but would rather keep it light. oh, and those that choose poverty out of principle. and sometimes people that like to take fasts for either spiritural reasons, or to detoxify. and now that we're talking about it, who doesn't need a workout partner? i know i need one. i guess, i could meet more colored folk, and people who like spicy food too, but that's it, really.
haha we got lucky against light of africa... we showed up with like 10 or 11 guys and they had probably 15 extremely athletic looking guys (including alex nimo) ready to go. but only 7 of them had cards so they had to forfeit
