I hate softball

I had my first softball practice yesterday and it went about as badly as one could expect. Any previously held illusions that I might not be that bad have been put firmly in their place. It looked like something out of The Benchwarmers.
My ego was not the only part of me that got bruised. The meat of my left thumb and index finger and the innermost joint of my right thumb are a lovely shade of purple. Same goes for the side of my left knee. Most of my body aches from exercising part that have not been used in years. The real icing on the cake is a respectable sun burn on my head, neck, and legs.
Anyway, I expect that my rookie season will be my last. I don't mind sucking at something if I'm at least having fun. Softball just isn't that fun. Maybe I'll change my mind but I doubt it.
