Weekend Update...

... unfortunately not with Norm MacDonald.

As previously mentioned, we (Friendly Fire) played in the Bristol Rec Softball Tournament this weekend. It was a great couple of days, in which we played nine games (5 on Sat and 4 on Sun) - winning only two. However, considering we have only won one other game all season it is actually a marked improvement. Especially when you consider how much we improved over the two days. On Saturday we lost all five games; then on Sunday we won two out of the four and played very well - even in the games we lost. Both days were very hot, with the sports field offering very little shade from the sun and there were a number of minor injuries, including a wasp sting for Marla, bruised shoulder ligaments and a grazed leg for Griff and a contact lens induced eye infection for Rachael. It's a little bit surprising how many injuries occur during a softball season, considering it is a non-contact sport. At the end of the tournament we finished tied for 19th out of the 24 teams, which does not sound very good but was actually a good result for us given our poor day on Saturday.

That's all for now, it's a regular working week this week, with a relatively normal weekend in store.
