Physically, I am a mess right now. I have a groin pull that makes every step painful. And a swollen right knee. I played a softball game yesterday where I had someone run for me every time I reached first base.
So why do I feel so good? Softball endorphins, I guess. We have won our last 4 games, convincingly, making our record 6-2. Even better, the team that entered this week at 6-0 lost both games, making our two teams tied in the standings. I even played as a pool player in their game on Tuesday, helping a team that was 1-5 at the time beat a previously undefeated team by a score of 22-10. A convincing beatdown by an underdog.
It has all made me feel very good. So I limp down the street when walking Rusty, every step excruciating. With a big smile on my face.
