BAD-minton

Last night at our open gym night we had our normal games set up. You could choose from cards, ping pong, basketball or badminton. I was playing basketball for the first part of the night with some of our youth. Then Molly (Youth) and Sandra (Her Mom) prepared homemade milkshakes. They were really good and after consuming one of them I decided basketball might not be a good idea. So we ventured to the badminton court. It started off as an innocent game and then turned into a competition. Me and Zach Stewart were on one team and Chris Barnes and Justin Perkins were on the other. The first game we lost (all me). The second one we won. So you know that leads to a third game. This one was serious and it appeared like me and Zach had this one in the bag. All of a sudden we find ourself 20-18 and our serve. Zach serves and the hitting back and forth was intense. We were all over the court covering for one another. Then we both headed the same direction to the birdie. Zach was closer so I pulled back my racket. Then all of a sudden bam!!!! I was struck in the face with a racket. Needless to say we lost that point. After regaining my composer and checking my throbbing face for lacerations we continued on. We won the game!! Wooot hoooot!

This is my second injury while hanging around with Zach. I found out that his buddy Chris has been hit in the face with a golf club (tossed to him to use during a game) and he has been driven into branches on a 4 wheeler.

So beware of the man they call Zach...he comes with a Warning. Not suitable for children or adults. LOL!!! Just joking Zach.
