Home again

[chickenfeet]

I'm home and relatively unscathed. I was horribly rusty and slow both physically and mentally but I managed 45 minutes on the park. The worst bit is thinking about things one ought just to do and not think about. I only made a couple of tackles, my cleaning out was tentative and my ball into contact less than fully committed. I also turned the ball over a couple of times when I shouldn't. That's rustiness rather than lack of physicality. I didn't play well today but I did play and I think I can get back to somewhere near where I was before but it may take a while. Apparently I broke someone's nose too but I have absolutely no idea how.

I came home to an apartment littered with broken glass and cat barf and that despite the kittens being shut up in the office. I think I need a drink.

I'm glad you managed to play. And the confidence and habits would return quickly, I'm sure.

Shame about the return, though! I hope the kittens are all ok...

Yep -- hope it's just hairballs!

Glad it went okay. I can imagine its scary when you've been guarding that shoulder for so long, to really use it the way you typically would.Did more than one glass thing break? I'm hoping 'littered with broken glass' was a bit of an exaggeration?

There was one glass broken but it was spread around a bit

Cuh, typical cats: wait until you're out and have all their friends over for a wild party, and then they don't clear up.

Glad you walked off the pitch more or less ok :)
