So, yet again, I didn't listen to myself, I played an indoor co-ed game last night.

I went to my co-ed indoor game to coach by waving rolled up papers around (which were old movie passes to some B-budget drive-in movie that I found bleached by the sun on the dash of Dan's car).

However, our goalie missed, so I suited up in various odds and ends and played goalie by limping around. We won the game 3-1 thanks to some stellar defending. I had a jump on three balls, pick up a couple others, and block one actual shot. The goal scored against me came in the last four minutes. The shot was allowed due to a bit of a defensive lapse, where the attacker (I almost said goalie, I'm used to attacking the other net) had enough room and time to fire a really hard shot at me. I got a couple fingers on it, but it wasn't enough and it went into my top corner of the far post.

It's unfortunate that I didn't get the clean sheet that I could've rubbed in Derek's face, but I'm glad we won, and even more glad that I didn't further injure myself.

I'm doing fairly well this morning, as far as the injury goes.
