Preparing to go to battle
This evening, two older-than-they-used-to-be men talk about their soccer match that night.
Guy #1: Can you play goalie tonight? My shoulder is still killing me. I think I might have torn my rotator cuff.
Guy#2: I think I can. My wrist is still pretty sore from last week.
Guy#1: If you can’t, I can try it. I just can’t dive to my right.
Guy#2: I can give it a go. My Achilles tendon is feeling better so I can I can run now.
Guy#1: If worse comes to worse, we can have Abel play goalie.
Guy#2: Or we can trade off at the half. You know, if the pain gets too bad.

Every Sunday evening, I come home from the bar after my baseball game, and tell my wife about my latest injury. Ankle, knee, shoulder, elbow, foot, thumb…it never ends.

There is truly something very sad about that exchange. Are we all getting old or something?

LOL Unfortunately, that sounds familiar. And don’t even attempt to empty a couple of pitchers after the game!
