Found the sleeping bag somewhere upstairs, but it was unused and no one claimed having used it. The mystery continues. Who was that damn fool who woke me up last night? Will I ever find out?
Coffee and doughnuts for breakfast after a late night of hard drinking. It is amazing to me how Ultimate players manage to be such terrific athletes.
We beat Clarkson University in the first playoff round of the second-tier pool. Then we had a bye, and Josh and Henry and I went to yell and scream random cheers and jeers at the women's game. We were pretty rowdy and noisy.
After not playing for several hours, we played the B-pool “chumpionship” against Binghamton. We played cold in the first half, probably because we were cold. We came hard with a zone D in the second half and turned the game into a good fight. Everyone played hard and played well, making the loss more palatable. All in all, we made a good showing. The weather never got around to sucking. It was a beautiful weekend.
Stopped at Wendy's and ate a triple cheeseburger. The Atkins Diet resumes until the next tourney — maybe next Saturday at OU?
Areas where I need to improve: endurance, flexibility, strength, throwing under windy conditions.
Penalized four points by Mike (house manager) for two weeks of unfinished worksessions. I am upset because I had no idea I was doing an inadequate job, and because Mike did not tell me of his intent to point after the first week's infraction. How can I know he has a problem if he doesn't tell me? I easily have to be leading the chapter in total points. This is akin to having the most strokes in a golf game. Maybe I can get a Phi Kap handicap.
Nathan called it quits on the football pool after this week's low number of entries. I don't know why it's so hard for people to circle the damn things and find a dollar, but I completely understand Nathan's lack of desire to keep the pool going.
