The first day of spring break…

March 2, 2007

…and the sun finally came out.

The lacrosse season has begun again, my favorite time of year, and I’m hoping that my coaching ability has somewhat improved since 2006.

I was such a wreck at our first game last season. We were set to play the first-ranked team in our division, undefeated after four games. The opposing team’s coach, at least ten years older than me, stood dignified down the field, poised, casually checking her clipboard and offering advice to her players via telepathy.

She probably seemed even more majestic when compared to me, an unsteady amateur, screaming my voice hoarse, covered in mud after dropping to my knees and rolling around with anxiety, maniacally pulling out chunks of my own hair. We ended in a tie.

I actually doubt I’ll be any different this year.

    That small glimpse of where you live looks infinitely prettier than anywhere in Houston.

    And I didn’t know there were RSS feeds that dinged! Technology is so awesome.

    Coaching a kids’ team is something I think would be really fun. I’d just have issues finding a sport to coach. heh.
