New job, new co-workers. I figured a good way to meet some of the guys was to play pick up bball with them. Considering at the last dot com where they all sucked in sports I wasn't expecting much. On Friday, the CEO rented out the gym so we could play after work. Normally they play at lunch time. Surprisingly, half the guys where pretty good. I forgot how pick up ball is played...especially with white folks. They bump, they grab, they hold...basically just try to play physical except when you do it back to them it's a foul.
Sadly, early into the game I was hurt. Great. I guess things do happen in 3. Although I think this makes 4.
1. A week ago I got hit knee to knee. Just a bruise.
2. Three days later I get my legs cut and I land on my knee. Bone bruise.
3. I fall and a guy steps on my shooting hand. Swollen and bruised hand.
4. Ball get deflected straight into my right pointer finger. Bruised & swollen.
The good news is that my sister said it is not broken. The bad news is that I can't move it, grab anything or type. In addition, I got this weird bump on my forearm. I have had it for 2 weeks now and I thought it would go away. I told my sister and she has no idea what the heck it is. I guess she hasn't gotten to that class in school yet.
Guess I will be off from bball for a few weeks. =(
