So today was the last day of kickball. I hadn't planned on writing about it, but since there was a bit of commotion, I thought I'd type something up. I play kickball with a local Sports & Social club. We play kickball Saturday afternoons and then we go to the bars early (4:00 - ish) and then we are social.
I generally play first base. Today, I played first base. The first runner head-butted me because she didn't run to the outside plate (First base has two plates, one is inside the baseline, the other is outside - this is so that collisions can be avoided). Ok first kicker head-butted me on my right temple - it's tender, but it's a superficial wound. After that, I chased down the ball and got back to base, no problem. Second kicker mowed me over like a Mack truck. We're talking every ab muscle I have is now pulled/strained/who knows what and I think there is a small chance that I have a minor concussion. My head certainly hit the ground pretty hard. I did not lose consciousness, but I did leave the game. I do have a dull throbbing headache, but all things considered, it's not that bad. I just took some Advil and I am very cognizant of how my head feels. If it starts to feel worse, I will go get checked out at either the ER or Urgent Care. This happened about 3 1/2 hours ago, just after 1:00.
Going to go ice my abs again :)
