Xerxes is an 455 Wipe

I have to get this post finished by 11am, cos that's when Xerxes said he'll be checking my blog :p .. but I don't know why I linked him in my title seeing as he says he's given up on his website :p

I trained it in with him this morning (meant no sleep on the train :p) but was good to see him .. as I haven't seen him in ages! He never calls, never emails, he never trains it when I do .. he's just like those damn squirrels in While You Were Sleeping :p

hmm, I realised y'day that a lot of ppl are celebrating their 3 year anniversaries this year .. Xerxes + Kel, Ann + Jaimal, Minh + Will and Joshy + Lady B! hmm do I hear any wedding bells? :p Well ... only the ones to my sista's upcoming nuptials, and maybe Matty + Betty ... Congrats to all though :o) Xerxes is trying to compete for the top spot in my uni/hs bunch of friends (watch out Baz + Therese!), ah so evil :p *Note - have fun doing a search on your name in this post, Xerxes .. it appears a lot :p*

I played frisbee last night per usual .. Man, I was soo lethargic! But I think half our team was ... Belinda was looking forward to resting on the sidelines, but for the first half of the game, we had no female subs (we played 4 girls, 3 guys as that's what the other team had) ... Amanda was also tired (they still both played brilliantly though for tired ppl!) .. and Ian was so tired, he slept past his stop on the train trip to our game! :p However, despite that, he played really well (I don't know why he said he played like terribly on his blog :p) .. Cos for this one point, he did 3 great d's in a row! ... He'd do one d, but then we couldn't consolidate the point and it would be a turnover, then he'd do another so we'd get the disc back .. and then eventually we scored :o)

We won by quite a bit in the first game, and we played okay for a captainless, lethargic team .. But I think we need to probably lift our game a bit more when it comes to the finals, as the teams coming 2nd and 3rd are pretty damn good! I managed to score 4, but no layouts this week :p I blame Phil, cos he was watching our game (well not really, he was too busy socialising :p) and he hasn't ever seen me dive (he reckons I make it up! :p) .. One of my points was a bit flukey, as it bounced off Belinda in the endzone, and just out of reflex, I moved my hands so it wouldn't whack me, and ended up catching it :p

I don't feel like I'm playing at my best atm .. I played better this week than last, but still not at my maximum performance :o/ Though I haven't felt like i've played really well in ages!

For my next game, we lost by heaps :p But, we were doing okay at the start - 4 all at one stage .. then it went downhill :p We had no girl subs, but nor did the other team :p I did one good hand block .. I don't ever remember doing one like that before .. I realised that my opposition likes to throw it low, so I moved my hand really low and next thing I knew, the disc was on the floor! Wewt! What made it better was knowing I stopped a goal as she was standing at the front of the endzone, and all she had to do was throw it to someone in that space :o)

Tis really stuffy at work, air con is just too hot :o( I think it's making me sick as well :o(

*Note: Xerxes had better read this post else he really is an 455 wipe :p*
