Sweep, sweep, sweep!
Oh, I was sweeping alright. Actually, it wasn't so arlight, I don't make a good sweeper. Not in the kitchen, not on the curling ice either.
It was the last rock of the game, I followed it closely. I ran alongside next to it. Until finally, i was flat on my bum, and in so much pain, I was temporarily (speechless). The game kind of stopped, as everyone waited to see how I could recover. Not wanting to show true anguish, I did the unthinkable for someone who could hardly move. I stayed exactly where I was and yelled Sweep! The other team already had one player sweeping for us since we were a player short. Another extra player from thier team joined in. But we overshot and lost the rock anyway.
By the time I got to work, I was walking gingerly-- very gingerly. Getting in and out of my chair is proving to be a problem. Although, thanks to the medicine cabinet here in Emerg, I am able to move around, just not swiftly.
My first curling experience was a lot of fun. I didn't even know how the game was played until tonight. And who knows, once i'm able to walk normally again, I might even venture to trying again.
Right now though, I need a little bed rest, and a lot of pain killers.
