Go Hard or Go Home!

OK. So this is precisely why Kim didn't want me playing softball. At 38, I still have only one gear. In my defense, I scored on the play. After beating out a grounder, I failed to slide a second on the next batter, drawing criticism from the opposing team. At third, the play was close, so I slid. The ball got by the 3rd baseman and I bolted for home (as fast as a fat 38-year-old can run). The play at home was close, so I slid again. In hind sight, I should have stayed at third. Although, I actually think the damage was done before I headed home! OUCH!



I scrubbed it out, poured peroxide on it, added antibiotic (with pain reliever) and covered it up with two 3" gauze pads. I can't wait for the next game!
