Weekend Recap

This past weekend was fun but went by way too quickly. Friday night (after getting off work early which was GLORIOUS) I just chilled at home. It was very relaxing and just what I needed. Saturday morning the boyfriend and I went to pick up which was a good time. There was some debate as to whether or not the grass field would be playable since it stormed over night, but we were luckily still able to play. After soccer I did mass loads of laundry and then the boyfriend and I headed over to our friend Jules' place for her birthday celebration. We chilled at Jules' for a bit, had some wine and cheese, and then headed out to her favorite local Italian joint. The birthday festivities carried on after dinner, but I was too tired to partake.

Sunday morning I ran some errands and purchased a few new finds for work at the thrift store up the street. I thought I would have the rest of the afternoon free until my soccer game at 6pm. My co-ed outdoor winter soccer league's Championship playoffs were scheduled for Sunday evening - at least that is what the league told us. I checked my email at about 2:45 only to see that there was some miscommunication and the game was actually scheduled for 3pm. I quickly threw on my soccer gear, ran out the door, hailed the 1st cab I could find, and arrived at the field around 3:10. When I arrived I saw 3 of my teammates there, along with every member of our opponent's team. Because we didn't have enough people to play, we had to forfeit the game. Needless to say we were all pissed since the league had confirmed to us that the game was at 3 and changed it at the last minute. Our team captain emailed the league and there is talk that the Championship might be replayed this coming weekend, but we haven't officially heard yet. We scrimmaged for about 30 minutes with the other team, which was fun, but not the same as a real game. Let's hope the league let's us replay!
