what a great weekend! my roommates (alex, matt and meriden) hosted an ugly christmas sweater party, which was a resounding success. our apartment was packed with frisbee players, colleagues, family members, fellow students and neighbors. lots of guests brought their own sweaters, and those that didn't got their pick of the "extra sweaters" pile. by the end of the night, most of the extra sweaters were gone, and late arrivals had limited choices...
i wore an infant sweater (the sleeves came to my elbows), we held a sweater contest (mc'ed by me), alex got in a fight with misbehaving attendees, i hung mistletoe from our kitchen light fixture, some guy threw up in the sink, chinstrap guys and their sketchy friends took over the porch and the party ended with a 5 am singing circle. all in all, a truly great party.
of course, any good party should be followed by a 7:20 am wake up call from your brother, reminding you that you are already 20 min late for the 7 am departure to Get Ho Ho Ho. (i gave sam my key on friday night so he could physically wake me up if necessary.)
by the time i arrived at the fields, i was feeling ok, if a little out of it. our team was small, which helped us keep warm, and we had a bunch of fun games. after winning our pool, we met a slow-white-conglomeration team in the semis. they started off by breaking us and it looked like it would be a tough game. fortunately, we cleaned up our playing (zirui slightly reduced the number of hammers he threw) and pulled out a solid win. the finals were another story - we were tired and their team was better than ours. we still had a decent showing (11-7 maybe?) but couldn't seriously challenge them.
i had to work sunday, which was a little hard, but i made it through and i slept all day today to compensate. next tourney is vegas!
