Weak Week

This week was all messed up. I get too little sleep at the beginning and I just can't get back on track - bizarrely, when I am tired, I have a harder time going to bed. Unless I am completely exhausted, last night I finally hit that and went to bed at a reasonable time. During the day, being tired makes me feel hungry, I have had way too many handfuls of peanut M&Ms from the candy machine this week. Too much pop. Everything has just been blah.

Tomorrow is big and busy. Interleague photo retakes at noon followed by two hours of practice (but maybe before that, modeling merch? Ooohh!). And finally the announcement of who is actually playing in Lincoln next weekend (we don't have constant alternates, roster is being decided on a bout-by-bout basis). Hit Man says, "They can't go to Lincoln without their rookie of the year!" Oh bless.

Tonight is the premier of BSG season 4, which I might try to watch but it will be replayed Sunday and next Friday so I might not force that on the boy who doesn't like sci fi. I've been playing some original BSG over at hulu.com, it's interesting.

Sunday is just regular practice, Monday ditto (plus Interleague), Oddball Tuesday, Wednesday meeting (and Interleague practice). Sometime between now and next Saturday morning, Twyla (my car) has to go to Valvoline for a check-up and some tuning up. Maybe tomorrow, although most of the afternoon is shot to skating.

Tonight there is an open scrimmage. I have struggled with to go or not to go. It is so much fun, but the truth is my shoulder is not 100%. It's like 99%, but it hurts more than it should to get hit on it. With Lincoln next weekend (again, I hope!), and the Kilmores in three weeks, I feel like I am walking a fine line between not getting hurt, and getting benefit from extra skating. At this point knowing that it hurts more than it should to be hit on my shoulder, and knowing that I want to skate next weekend, I had to decide not to scrimmage tonight. The next open scrimmage is in two weeks, I should be able to skate that.

Next Saturday morning, we're driving to Lincoln, baby! Let's show them some Minnesota NOT-so-nice (the nice side will drink alcohol with them after the game).
