Why do bicycle shops make me feel so awkward?
Volleyball (Spiked Punch). We had 2 make up games with the league's number one team and we split with them. We had a decent lead in the first game and blew it, then won the second fairly easy. We finished our the season 15-9. Not too bad for a team with three first time players.

Thursday 1

I'm waking up very tired every morning and I'm tired throughout the day. This has been going on over the past 2 to 3 weeks. I don't understand this since I'm coming off 2 weeks of recovery or active rest.
