stitches

yesterday i worked 4 hrs (overtime!!!) in the morning but today was technically day 1 of my work week.
ugh.
i hate day 1.
it always has a Monday feel to it, even if it happens to be thursday.
while i only had 4 patients, i dont know where my head was. I blame the Monday Effect.

and sometime during the day i accepted a phonecall specifically for me and i have a vague recollection of agreeing to play on the hospital/health care slo-pitch team ("stitches") and i think i may have also joined the local rec soccer team that actually plays all of its games in Idaho. good thing i can cross state lines.
but SLO-PITCH?????!?!?!

things i cannot do which may prove problematic for being on a slo-pitch team:
catch
throw
hit
run without looking totally awkward
feel comfortable making small talk and fitting in with beer-guzzlers
remember the rules to the game

things i can do:
show up
be enthusiastic

The things you can do are the best things. The rest of it doesn't matter at all. Concerning slo-pitch. Not the nursing. That is an important qualification.

I'm so jealous! Thus far the only sports team invite I've received is for volleyball... I HATE volleyball!

I think it's high time someone started a picnic team, or a "sitting and reading fiction by the ocean" team. I'd kick ass!
