Last week was one of the hardest ever. This time work provided shelter for "other stuff", something I could focus on while trying to keep the head above the water.Infamous unordered list follows.
- Voices is really taking off. I need to write a piece on why it is the right play at the right moment and nuder the right circumstances.
- Next week I'll be on a vacation; good news is that it has recently snowed at Bariloche.
- Inertia is the most idiotic of all principles. I'm under the feeling that I have been acting in such way for too long. I need to apply a lateral force somewhere to alter the direction of things.
- Olympic observation #1: I hate short-lived direct elimination sports. The fact that people train an entire life to "act" for about 9 minutes and then head back home (as in Judo or Fencing) disturbs me.
- Olympic Observation #2: sports I'm interested in don't get TV time...
- Olympic Observation #3: the fact that some sports are Olympic and that squash isn't bugs the hell out of me.
- The body can sustain massive amounts of abuse. The mind can too, but side effects are nastier.
- Even in the worst circumstances good stuff can surface. That is what keeps us sane.
- When shit happens, it goes all the way!
A couple of months ago I posted how I started playing and enjoying Squash.
Yesterday, though, misfortune hit me. Well, not really "misfortune" but rather my opponent's racket.
4 stitches on the inside of my upper lip later I only feel a tad uncomfortable, but luckily not much pain. The only bad thing is that eating and brushing my teeth have become time consuming tasks.
2 gross pictures follow to illustrate the damage. You'll see that with my mouth shut I look like I just had a bad collagen lip fill.
