If you're the sort of person who is looking to prom tonight and going yes, this is my time, I am made for this: more power to you, and I envy the spirit.

If you're someone going ... well, I guess I've got to go to this thing now, fear not, you're not alone. We'll find each other and stand to the side pretending to make fun of things until there's enough alcohol to join in the fun after all.




In other news, I want to organize a kickball game. Maybe even a whole tournament, if there are enough people up for it. Talk to me if you want to play, I'll get teams assigned. If you don't want to play but like to be involved, we'll need an umpire and cheerleaders, too. And a roaring crowd.

Why not just play football?

[thisismytime]

Because I want to play kickball.

[jackscrew]

Football is more popular. You'll find more players.

[thisismytime]

Nobody's making you play, Jack. You don't have to rain on my parade.

Your first assignment is to join a kickball team.

[craquelure]

I'll see you on the sidelines, comrade.

My cheer experience is too many years out of date.

[thisismytime]

I know you know you could kick ass on the field.

[craquelure]

You know I'd be miserable participating in a team sport.

[thisismytime]

I do know this. But this particular one has moments of individual glory.

[marisoling]

i’ll play.

[thisismytime]

Knew I could count on you.

[marisoling]

of course you can.

[timedout]

you could have saved yourself.

[marisoling]

from what?

[percevoir]

I've never played kickball before but I'll give it a go

[thisismytime]

It's one of the easiest to learn. That's why I picked it, anybody can jump in.

[logiquement]

I'm in though a word of warning, I was always chosen last for kickball growing up

[thisismytime]

Lack of coordination or lack of effort?

[logiquement]

Effort, mostly. One time I was playing outfield and I missed a ball coming right at me because I was making a flower crown with daisies.

To be fair, I was like 7 at the time, but it followed me throughout elementary and middle school

[ehollow]

My foot-eye coordination might not be the best, but I'll play.

[thisismytime]

It doesn't even need to be that good, honestly. You'll be alright.

[ehollow]

I can catch if's that's any consolation.
