Accident Prone

Well, yes, I'm accident prone. It's kinda sad. It runs in the family, though, so it can't all be blamed on lack of attention to detail.

The slide strawberry got better. Left an interesting brown scar. It's flat, but it looks like it's dirty, even though it isn't. I started wearing long socks and softball pants to protect my leg while sliding. Seemed to work pretty well. Well, that is until this past weekend. I slid into third. I was called out, which was annoying. It was very close, so it makes sense that I got sent. The ground really needed to be broken up more than it was, so it was very hard. I somehow managed to get my knee a little too much under me, so I have a scrape just below my kneecap. Not looking too pretty at the moment, so I think it may be trying to get infected, too. Same ball field, so if it's infected, it's probably staph again. I'm treating it with the antibiotic ointment that I had leftover from the previous slide. Good thing I saved it, eh?

Lots of softball this summer. Played up in Mammoth at a tournament there. Had a lot of fun. Stayed in a condo with most of the ball team. Nice enough, and we played rock band every night, under the frozen stare of a stuffed chupacabra. Well, not really a chupacabra, but a stuffed bobcat. It's tail and legs seemed too long to be a bobcat. It was kinda creepy. One of the guys on the team wanted to take it down from its perch and leave it in front of people's bedside so it would scare the crap out of them in the morning. It would be hysterical, until someone beat the crap out of it and our coach would have to pay the $500 deposit on the stupid condo due to the damage to chupa. Alas, we behaved.

We didn't do well in that tournament, but we did take 3rd in the tournament from the past weekend, so it wasn't too horrible. The only other softball injuries that I currently have is a seriously sprained middle finger. It's currently swollen at the first joint (near the tip - is that distal?). Some of the swelling has gone down, but it doesn't bend at all in one direction, and not as much as it used to in the other. Not sure what I can do about it, though.

On the hotwifing side of the house, I did get some playtime in a couple of weekends ago. Met some friends in Vegas and had a good time. Really enjoyed myself. We didn't get out much, and ended up staying in the hotel most of the weekend. We did try to come up with a version of strip football. We had to tailor the rules as we went, because it didn't quite go as smoothly as we would've liked. :) Still, we had a good time.

While there, picked up the new iPhone 3GS. I'm really liking it. My previous iPhone went to the hubby. He's liking it as well. I was sad that the AT&T dealer didn't have the 32 gig version, only the 16 (which is what I had before). I can't get the stupid thing in town, so it was going to require a trip out of town to get one. I decided I could live with the 16 gig instead of the 32, as sad as I might be about it. I do like the new iTunes/iPhone interface, though.


Last weekend I had a coworker as me (outside of work) point blank if my spouse and I were swingers. I told her that we were (although that isn't quite how we define it, but close enough for the 'normals'). We don't advertise it, but we won't deny it. Kinda can't, with the whole security clearance thing. Can't be put in a position to be blackmailed. Still, I'm curious to know if she heard rumors (she said she did), but she also said that she did some research over some pics that I had that she had seen online, and found my alternate identity on an internet forum. Oh well. I knew it would come out sooner or later. We'll see how it affects things.
