Worked Like A Cheap Hooker
We kicked off a little preparatory epee at 5:30pm. By the end of the pool I was ready for a cold one, not more abuse. My teammates however had abuse for me at the top of their agendas. Fenced direct eliminate, and was happy to lose it quicly, I couldn't seem to make anything else happen for some reason.
You'd think that after that it would be nap time. Think again. They had saber planned for me as well. What no saber lame in my size? Shucks, too bad, you guys fence without me. Nope. They put me in a foil lame and sent me back out. We finish the pool, I have a stitch in my side, and a strong desire for sleep. No sleep for me, they make me fence in direct elimination here too. Hey! It's 8:30, we don't have time to fence any more direct elimination!! Time to pack up! Saved!!!
Nope. My tubby butt had to fence all the way to 8:45. I managed to make it home only because Sara picked up some extra food for her dinner that I could have. I am pretty sure I got my pants off before falling asleep. I didn't wake up in pants anyway. It's OK guys, I forgive you for your abuse and my shattered epee (I have been using that epee since 1998, it broke into 3 pieces). I'm fine. I survived. Who put all these stairs around UNCG anyway? Ow! Ow! Ow!
My comeback tournament is Saturday, I'm just glad the knickers have a flask pocket.

You forgive US for the shattered epee!?????! You obviously are somehow related to my wife and daughters. (Perhaps Henri as well.)
Who was holding the epee when it broke? Who broke it while abusing a poor; tired and feeble old man? We should have been harder on you. Perhaps then you would not whine like child.

Now that just isn't fair. How come when it's you you get to fence all the way until 8:45, and when it's us we never do?
