Butts and Ends

Looks like I'll be sitting out practice another night, as my ankle is still giving me pain when I walk, and especially when I go downstairs. It feels more bruised than anything else, and there's certain parts that my shoes and cleats rub up against that's definitely painful. I did go to the gym after work yesterday and put in some time on an exercise bike, to try to keep my legs in shape during all this time when I can't run. I have a hard time riding a bike for a long time, as after about 10-15 minutes, my ass fucking huuuuurts. I've not done a lot of science as to why, but I believe it's a combination of three things:

1. Sitting on it while using my legs for intense exercise.
2. Inadequately padded bicycle seat
3. Inadequately padded butt.

We're now 10 days away from the Jamboree in LA. I assume my ankle will be ready to go by then. We only have one defensive end going so the team needs people to step up and fill the other spot and I think if we do defense tonight, I might ask Coach Talley if I can watch the DE's practice and learn their position and maybe by Saturday take a few reps with them.

I know I shouldn't push it with the ankle but damn I want to play.

We're voting for player reps at practice tonight. CC, my carpool buddy, is in the running along with a few other players. There's gonna be three reps, but I'm not sure if we each get three votes? I know I would like to vote for CC and Crystal Brown. My last vote, I'm torn on. I guess I'll decide at practice. SWING VOTE, LADIES.
