Man the past few days have been pretty full on. The big news is that this weekend was the Rolf Lund Memorial Meet, a high school track meet that my old team hosts as a fundraiser. It’s always a lot of fun b/c there are always a few alumni which come back to help out, it’s always a good time to play catch up with people you haven’t seen in a while, and in my case almost two years. But since this would be my first time in K-town in about two years I figured this would be a good chance to see other old friends that I hadn’t seen since I left, so I extended the weekend by one evening to give time to meet up with other people.
I think that needless to say, all three evenings were filled with numerous beers and many stories told. Heck I haven’t seen some of these guys (and girls) in about two years, it was such a good time to catch up. I’m actually kind of surprised that I was able to survive three nights of heavy srinking b/c I hadn’t done it in a while, I’m getting old you know… But it’s not like I was even able to sleep in on any of the days either. Friday I had to be up early b/c the guy I was visiting the first night had to leave town early the next day, Saturday I had to be at the track to help run the meet and Sunday I has a couple more people to visit before I drove back to TO for 5 hours of frisbee try-outs.
Ok, so what’s the best thing to do after three nights of drinking? Well most people would say recover, not me, I’d say play frisbee. I had the third round of tryouts for BMF, one of the better Toronto mixed teams and the team I’m hoping to make, and Zen Asylum, a team that isn’t at the same level but they’re a highly spirited team. All I have to say is that Sunday evening my body hated me, I was extremely tired! But it was worth it b/c I had a good time meeting up with old freinds in Kingston and even though my liver may have been suffering after multiple nights out, it didn’t affect my frisbee playing at all. I was playing some of the better games I have in a while, I was fully stoked after. I defo think it helped my chances of making BMF, before I wasn’t too sure, now I think I have a good legitamite chance. Still waiting for the email that’s supposed to come tonight saying if I made the third round of cuts of not, if I do, it means a tournament in Guelph next weekend. Will update as soon as I know.
update: I survived cut #3!! I think this is close to the end now, there are only 15-16 guys left on the team and I don’t see many more cuts being made, just hope I play well this weekend in Guelph.
