Westward bound..?

So I don't know what the deal is with SULA, pretty sure the league's started, but I haven't gotten any notices from captains or anybody. I can't play because the ankle is still swollen and bending it hurts a lot, but would still be nice to know that at least there is a team to go to once it's all healed.

Planning for a trip out West in late July. Was entertaining the idea of going back to China. Axed. Going to Australia/New Zealand, not enough money. There is a chance I might not even have enough money to head out West, but we'll see. If I go, it will be flying from Boston to LAX or Long Beach. If I go to LAX, maybe spend a day or two there before headed to Irvine, then SF. If I go to Long Beach I think one of my friends from Irvine will pick me up, and I'll use his house as a base of travel. Maybe hit up LA, then SF, and maybe head North to Davis or something, who knows.

Also the gym workouts have been good, been noticing some subtle changes in tone and stuff. Got to keep it up the entire summer, eat healthy, and hopefully I'll be back up and running soon.

HA-HA! Broken!

First practice with Jiggle the Handle, a competitive mixed club team out in the valley. During inter-team scrimmages, I planted with my left foot, rolled it on the wet grass, and my ankle snapped. Within a minute it was twice the size of my right foot. Splendid way to start off the season and the summer.

Workout

Man, I honestly say I can't remember the last time I was this tired. Did a campus loop followed by a series of sprints up a hill next to my dorm... after that last set I could barely stand up straight and had to rely on a metal rail that led up the hill to get back up to my dorm. After getting into the dorm I couldn't get up to the 4th floor and had to sit on the stairs for several minutes before dragging myself up to my room. Really out of shape... guess this is the first step in a long series of steps to get back into shape and whatnot. In like 5-6 hours, going to head to Gold's Gym.
