We're a little halfway through this tournament and I realize now how much I need to get back into shape and into training. I miss competing so much, and the thrill of just playing under pressure but I realize that I've really lost what it means to be a competitor. I'm lazy, slow, I don't think before I hit the bird, plain and simple... I suck.
But this weekend in SD is surprisingly fun. With my kids (my old but younger teammates) here and crashing at my place, I really miss having that badminton family. I miss the Taco Tuesdays and $1 scoop Tuesday runs. I miss playing against other HS with them. I miss just hanging out and joking with them. In all complete honesty, they are one of my favorite people to be around.
Anyway, the first night they were here we had Rigobertos, this night we had Phil's BBQ and Extraordinary desserts.
The one thing that I see is that badminton is fun, and it does keep me on my toes, but the one thing that I miss the most is the people. I'm dedicated to playing next year with all of my heart so in 1 years time, I'm going to actually be on par with the higher level players.
1 more day, and 1 more chance to tear it up tomorrow.
