YuviSense: Codin Kid

Now that life has settled a bit, let me try to explain to you why the last month was almost devoid of blog posts and was of such a type for the description of which only to-be-mommy Rory Blyth has the vocabulary.

Monday was the football match. We had absolutely no practice, and had a lot of fun going into the match. It was an under-17 tournament, but the opposing team looked well over 20. The trip to the stadium (on a city bus) was extremely noisy and fun, listening to half a dozen college jocks “sing” at the bus conductor while “drumming” on the roof. One jock even made the entire trip hanging by the rails of a window. Oh well

The match saw three goals scored. All by the opposing team I was the reserve goalie, but was not swapped in when the main guy let the three in because (ahem) the “coach” who had come with us had already swapped out three players for minor mistakes before coming to know that only three substitutions were allowed. So, I was reduced to cameraman there, and took not too many shots there as I had to be ready if I was asked to go in and the fact that I wouldn’t be asked to because I cannot be asked to did not come to my notice till about the end of the game.

I decided that it’ll be last game that I’d ever play. Just too time consuming on my part. If I have to excel at it, I’ll have to go at it hard, which requires time and dedication, which I decided I didn’t have. Bye Bye Football. Now, if I could locate some weight losing exercise that doesn’t take time….

The drugs, the competition and books from Colin in coming posts!
