nowadays turned into Jerry's annual softball match. it is in Novi, which is almost an hour from us. I had a blast remaining 12 months, so i used to be simply excited to go once more. The youngsters stayed with my dad and mom, so it turned into just Jerry and that i.
This 12 months, Jerry became on the team known as the 'Misfits', who I frolicked with ultimate year. they're hilarious, and i was satisfied whilst Jerry chose to play on that crew this 12 months.
The Misfits have continually been considered the "underdogs" because they do not take it too severely. They weren't even given new uniforms this yr, despite the fact that all the different teams got them. They were given a hotel closing night and have been out consuming till the nighttime, and then they showed up for his or her first game at nine:00 this morning. (Jerry and i failed to go last night time, we left this morning)

for the duration of the match, as soon as a crew loses two games, they are out. final 12 months, the Misfits lost the primary games and then spent time inside the parking lot. Jerry and that i have been type of looking ahead to the equal factor these days, and sure sufficient, they lost the first recreation (pretty badly) to Texas.
We had an hour earlier than the following sport, so we went to the parking zone for beer. I volunteered to pressure, so I didn't drink anything (that constantly helped me when i was dropping weight--being certain driver!) I need to run 16 miles the following day, so I had a big incentive to keep it healthy these days.
The beer must have helped, because that they had a amazing 2d recreation and received! We had lunch after that. I failed to want to have burgers and warm puppies that were furnished (due to the fact I needed to consume healthful for my long run day after today) so I delivered a lunch--tuna and Triscuits, oranges, and pretzels.
The Misfits just stored getting better, and that they received their 1/3 recreation. Jerry become being his ordinary goofy self, and tried distracting the pitcher by using pulling his pants up reeeeally excessive, in order that they have become "nut huggers". I do not think everyone however our crew concept it changed into humorous. ;-)
Their fourth game was towards Texas once more, and The Misfits really mercied them!!
I assume the entire crew turned into exhausted after that, because they eventually misplaced game #five, towards Indiana. but that gave them third area typical, which was completely surprising via all of us. i was so excited to see them achieve this well.
It turned into any such fun day. i have never laughed that lots in a long time!
i was starving for dinner at the manner domestic. i ended up throwing together some stir-fried greens, fettuccine, and spaghetti sauce. It wasn't as appropriate as it sounded in my head, however it did the activity. i'm worried as heck approximately my 16-miler the next day. I don't have any concept why i am so nervous approximately it! i am going to try and move early, to get carried out before it receives warm outside. it will take me almost 3 hours--yikes!
