Bummed Out

I got up late this morning. I was tired from a long weekend and had to fly like Jehu's brother to leave for school on time. Here's the scoop.

I enjoyed my weekend, to a certain extent. We arrived at HBS Friday evening, and I played some volleyball and chatted with my former teachers, as well as some of the kids there at HBS. Some of my other friends from VA that were visiting, namely Darin Y. and Lee M. invited me to stay with them at the motel for the night instead of sleeping on the couch. So I stayed on the floor! It was great though, hanging out with them. I had Internet access from our room...
Saturday, it was freezing rain and sleet, the roads weren't terrible but neither did the faculty want the students to be running off with the weather like it was. Very understandable. So they decided to have the volleyball tournaments (students only) on Saturday. That left us visitors sitting around on the stage, waiting for them to get done. During one of the breaks between games in a set of 3 games, Darin, Lee, myself, and a few other guys got out on the court to hit the v-ball some. Two of us jumped to get a ball that was right above the net, and I came down on the other guy's foot, landed funny, and sprained my right ankle. It wasn't a bad sprain, but they carried me off the court and I had ice on it for the next 2 hours probably. The tournaments finished, and they played volleyball after supper. Your informant made the "wise"(?) decision to put on his ankle brace and try to play. He claimed that it didn't hurt too bad, and he tried to be careful, but various other participants deemed him an idiot for playing. Poor fella!!

Sunday was a little warmer, and we had church with the students and faculty there. We ame home Sunday afternoon, just in time to get ready for church. It was a song service, and I had devotions. Fun singing, but there were so few tenors (as seems to be the case always). So I sang tenor a fair amount. Our first tenor, Titus B., was sitting beside me, and we "arranged" a few songs as we went. Quite interesting!

Quartet practice tonight. But first, I gotta study (or cram, whatever) for my calculus test in an hour.
