Yesterday i was up at an obscene hour to register for a volleyball tournament. It was a fundraiser for a woman with cancer, so all the money went to a really great cause.
The turnout was fantastic 20 or so teams, they had 4 courts set up on the beach, 3 bands played, it was a great day. Unfortunately it was quite overcast for most of the day, but the sun did come out later on. I taped up my finger as it is still recovering from my July 1st injury, and the first volley i did shot a stabbing pain into my joint, i tried to bump as much as possible after that. My team started out doing great, we won the first 4 games we played. However, as the afternoon wore on more drinks were consumed and we went downhill from there. Most of the people on my team were staying at the cottage so they didn't have to worry about driving and started drinking at 9am.....we played until 5pm.
I offered to go with one of their friends on a beer run in the morning. Terrible idea. His driving was so awful, he almost killed us like 3 times, and he had not even been drinking. Then we get to the beer store and find out it opens later than most and we have 45 mins to kill. We went to get some takeout, he spent 15 mins in the bathroom and when he returned to the car declared "sorry, i went number 2." Ewe!!Didn't need to know that. Other than that 45 mins, it was a great day playing on the beach and listening to some tunes.
I woke up today and my body felt as though it had been run over by a MACK truck LOL granted, i had not played vball since last summer. Perhaps i exerted myself a little more than i thought i did, that or i'm completely out of shape :)
This silly guy got his car stuck in the water.....
The evening turned out lovely....

Great pictures but why are you not in any of them??
Scott
Oh i remember now, you play volley. thats how it all started. PP told us all how you have drug markings on your veins that you proclaim to be from volley. yeah i remember it. nice pics but no boobs? :(
you are so cruel! shut this blog down. it makes me sad :(
Rawbean, the finger is a bit sore still, mind you it has been for 2 months so....
Scott, noone wants to see me all sweaty and full of sand.
Yrautca, i forgot about that. I played vball last year with a friend and he spiked the ball so hard when i tried to bump it, all the blood vessles on my arms burst and i had the markings from the vball imbedded on my arms. It looked like i had track marks.
Sounds fun! I haven't played Volleyball in forever! Of course, I'm no good at any sport that involves balls (he he he - that came out wrong).
The morning sounded good, but then things went downhill as the drinking increased (drinking only helps when playing darts or pool I've found).
And who the hell volunteers that they went #2?
LOL!!! I forgot about your track marks too!!! LOL, awww..memories.
I forgot to give you that thing for your finger again. You come over, ive got the medical tape. We'll fix you up. Im sure, with your finger being unsupported, you're doing more harm to it than good. You really should have it stablized, or else its going to wind up looking like a candy cane. :)
SS, you're too funny!!
2DP, yeah they thought they would play better drunk, apprarently not.
PP thanks, but the doc said no point after the 1st 10 days of injury, i'll just have to have a candy cane finger forever :(
