Jim's Cafe - Saturday, October 29th

I'm up early. Leaving in less than half an hour to meet up with the team for our game today. It's about 40 minutes away from us, which isn't bad compared to last week when we went to West Virginia. This is a must-win so we can have a chance at making the playoffs.

After that there's a party. But I might not go. Because the theme is "beer Olympics" and I'm not comfortable participating, plus I don't have enough money to chip in for the alcohol. I have $5 and the host wants $5-$10 from everyone. But there might be another gathering at my friend's house afterwards, so maybe I'll go to that.

I've set out some bagels of all flavors, with a variety of spreads and toppings to put on them. You can probably find something you like.

I hope you have a wonderful time. I would not be comfortable participating in that either though, the beer olympics doesn't sound too appealing :P

I have exercised for 45 minutes today, wondering what to have for dinner.

Can't get the damn washing machine to work and can't find my favourite trousers, ugh.

Am just going to chill for the day and do more exercise later, want to be down some weight for my weigh in on wednesday, my feet are hurting though, idk why

WE WON! The other team was down a few players, but either way, we did awesome. So I think we're going to playoffs. Not sure when the next game is, but I'm pretty sure it's against a team that has a reputation for hitting hard and playing dirty. We thought we were going to beat them with fundamentals the last time we played them, but we managed to lose anyway. Today was much better. It was so exciting. It's our first win of the season. And they even let me wear a jersey this time. I was so happy I almost cried. They offered to put me in for the last 5 minutes when we were up 50-something to 10 I think, but I hadn't signed up with USA Rugby like you have to in order to play. One guy said it was ok because the ref wasn't checking, but I'd also left my mouthguard at home, so it'd be stupid of me to do it anyway. I almost grabbed my mouthguard, but I left it because I thought there was no way I'd play. Unfortunate, I guess. But I'm gonna be partying soon, I hope.

Hello all!

@baywasp - Thank you for the breakfast and yay for the win!
@Petal, wow, 45 minutes of exercise! Good for you!

I slept in today, woke up with a headache, and after trying to do a few chores, I went back to bed cos I felt sick. Hoping that this second try to get moving today means the headache is really gone! Nothing else new.

Today was pretty stressful. I gave a cup of coffee for my mom to hold, but the lid came off and it spilled all over the floor in the grocery store. Then when I checked out, I threw all my cards and things on the register to get my ID out. In the process, I left my ID in the store and had to go back for it. Probably walked 3 miles total today..yeah, I am glad to be able to relax now.

Did the dentist bit today. Most have broken his xray machine though. Cause it stopped working when my turn came! But teeth seem okay. Did finally give in and order an electric toothbrush. Really can't afford problems with my teeth. Don't know how much longer I will have insurance.
