you know that saying...

the one that goes something like, you don't know how much you would miss is until it's gone? well, it's hitting me like a ton of bricks tonight...

Earlier this year, I made the decision to forgo the usual barrage of softball games by limiting to one co-ed and one wmn's team. Decision was partly to recover my sanity from the constant recruiting for female players, and partly to pursue other interests. Perhaps I'm just so used to the barrage of games each week, so now that the weekday schedule is lighter, I feel a little lost. I would hear snippets of other games played by my former team, or other folks participating in tournaments over the weekend. I feel like I'm missing out on all of this activity that I thoroughly enjoy. If it weren't for the constant recruiting needs, heck, I'd still be playing 3-4x a week and I would be perfectly happy with that. I like to play ball - a lot! Not that I'm complaining about finally having my Fridays and weekends free (since basketball is also on Wed now) to do other things, I just feel a little lost, maybe even a little empty. The camaraderie that comes with team sports is like nothing else. Maybe it will come soon enough, but maybe it won't. I guess I just really miss my games, what can I say?
