So last thursday was the first game for our softball team. I was relegated to dh'ing as i'm nursing some lingering injuries from ski season. Primarily a disfigured thumb on my glove hand. So i'm up at bat in the 7th with our team up 5 runs. I hit a double and my teammates start yelling for me to get a pinch runner. Yeah, i'm that fast. I'm so fast that when i'm running, if my hat falls off, it lands in front of me. But whatever, i waved them off and jokingly told them to dial 911 now so that i could be carted off the field in case i had to run some more. No sooner are the words out of my mouth when the next batter lines a single to left field. I started limping/rumbling/crawling to 3rd and our coach waves me home. Great. so i'm just about to toss my lung as i cross home when WHAM. I take the relay from the 3rd baseman right to the base of my skull. My arms and legs immediately go numb and i just blacked out and collapsed on home plate.

As i start to come to, i realize people are in my face yelling and stuff but i can neither hear them nor can i move my arms and legs. Shortly thereafter, i feel some intense tingling in my feet then hands and eventually i can at least move my limbs. sure enough, an ambulance and a freakin fire truck show up. they put me in the neck collar and put me on a board and away i go. No breaks or bleeding just the scariest 5 minutes or so of my life. And a headache that i wouldnt wish on anyone. pretty messed up shit. but now i'm just gettin killed cause, well, thats what my friends do.
