so it's over...

played our last game for the volleyball league tonight. we had to forfeit the first game of our 6:30 match because we arrived just over fifteen minutes late - too late in the rules. i'm sorry, but considering that we had to come from 20 miles away (Wash Park to 112th and Colorado) during rush hour and most other counties were on accident alert, we did pretty well to arrive at all.

ah well. we lost to the top seeded team and ended up in fifth place anyway. i guess there's a little consolation knowing that they weren't going to win the tournament tonight because they were missing a guy (co-ed, 3men and 3women) and had to play with four women instead. i'm sure the final was contested between the third and fourth seeds, which were actually the best teams in the league. who was i rooting for? the fourth seed - very cool team. no attitudes like the second and third seeds, who had memorable players like 'bitch girl' and 'gorilla boy'. we picked out the nicknames ourselves for those jerks...like 'em?

so, we no longer have to make the haul up to Thornton anymore; they run basketball leagues in the winter. that may also mean no more Monday night trivia jaunts either. that's okay though. even though Hemingway's is just a couple blocks from our captain's house, there was always tough competition - older and more scholarly crowd. we may, however, start hanging out in downtown. the people at Pour House Pub seemed more interested in drinking - our kinda people! AND they're stupider ;) we actually won $45 in gift certificates and movie passes the last time we were there. woohoo!
