anyway, we ended up getting absolutely SMOKED. 10-1. damn. the other team's guys AND girls were pretty good. it made it pretty tough just to get the ball by them into their zone. add the fact that our team also doesn't have very good positioning or teamwork--i swear, we converge on the ball like chipmunks!--and it had the makings of a blowout. their guys were wide open all night as we left our goalie out to dry. playing shorthanded didn't help 'cause we just got too tired to play the man-to-man all game. by the end of the game, even their girls were taking slapshots at our goalie. pretty funny, in retrospect. =)
to make things worse for me, somehow i twisted my right ankle. i don't even know how. it just started hurting real bad. and then, adding insult to injury, as i'm walking towards my car my left calf just cramped up. first time it's ever happened--i've never had that kind of pain before and i just dropped all my stuff. luckily, frances and esther were there to help me. they helped massage the muscle to help it relax. i dunno, it must have been from the mugginess in the gym and losing a bunch of salt and water from all that sweat. (i'm actually feeling pretty dehydrated right now and getting a bit of a headache as i'm writing this...)
well, just to play it safe, i asked fran to drive for me. i didn't want to risk having my leg cramp up on the d.v.p.! that would not have been a good scene. :) anyway, thanks again to the fran and esther for helping me out there. i probably would have been stranded there if it wasn't for them...
on the brighter side, the leafs got brian leetch! woo! perfect timing for me as i'm going to this saturday's game against the sabres!
alrite, i'm out. gotta massage the leg some more before i got to bed so it won't get too tight. i hope i don't wake up tomorrow morning screaming in pain (as ben has warned). ;)
