Today, as you know is Wednesday. This summer, that means it's softball game day, aka Jungle Cats day. When I awoke this morning, the forecast was not positive - there was already a thunderstorm and the rest of the day was supposed to follow the trend. In some respect, I was hoping for a game cancellation. Not because I've had a negative experience with the team, more so because the one thing I hate about playing sports outside is playing in the rain and mud. I had hoped the thunder would continue on to ensure game cancellation.
Somehow, there was a 5 hour break in the thunder and lightning - and because of this gap, the Jungle Cats were to report to the field for our 6:15 game. When we arrived to the field, we discovered that we really arrived to a giant mud pit. The infield was basically in ruin, and when a step was taken, your foot would sink at least half an inch - maybe more. Thankfully, our team was in good spirits and willing to get dirty for the cause.
It was the battle of the cats - Jungle Cats vs. Good News Kittens (side note: this team chose their name in reference to the saying "bad news bears." When I heard the name, my mind immediately jumped to Kitten Mittens.)
