so this weekend is the end-of-season soccer tourney, and my calf is still questionable, but also... i am conflicted b/c i have a marathon on 23 novembre, and if i get hurt or hurt-worse at soccer, how will i even begin the marathon? i mean, the 'thon is already going to involve some walking b/c i am out of shape, but if i am also injured, then what will it be like? but, the team is counting on me - soccer is a team sport after all. not that i am brandi chastain or anything, but do i need to repeat that it is a team sport? if i am not actually injured, i feel selfish not playing b/c i have something planned for the following week. but, then, if i get hurt-worse, i will be mad at myself & disappointed. advice?

this weekend - elvis, priscilla, & beavis are coming to town, and looks like saturday night i will be babysitting the beav. oh, yeah! they are coming to town for a funeral, but the funeree was quite old, and had a good life, and was ready to move along to the next phase, so it's not like totally waa-waa sad. sombre, maybe, but not weeping & gnashing teeth. point is - should be fine to have some fun with the folks, eh? i say yeah, and you should, too!
