Lacrosse

Okay, bizarre but totally true:

I discovered last Saturday, while cleaning out old boxes of my stuff, that in third grade I had ambitions to become a professional lacrosse player. I wasn't aware that I'd known what lacrosse WAS in third grade!

And for those who don't know what it is now, it's a game where you run around with a stick that has a net on the end and throw this little ball back and forth, trying to get it to the proper end of the field. And there's an opposing team that wants the ball too, and they beat you up in an effort to get it. It was invented centuries ago in the forest primeval of the American East Coast. Which is not really there all that much anymore, but that's another story.

*hopes she remembered all this right*
