Absolutely in heaven!

It's been way too long since I've spent time with my former love, volleyball. Well tonight, after a couple of years, we reacquainted ourselves. A few weeks ago I was up in the studio at work and this girl walked in looking for something. She looked at me and said, "Girl, how tall are you?" (I was wearing three inch heels that day, so I was looking that much taller). Upon telling her my height, she continued, "You play volleyball?" And there began a little friendship. She has been playing on a Division 1 team (meaning that it wasn't just like monkey ball) in a city league here and invited me to join them for their last three games of the season. Unfortunately I couldn't make it to the first one, but tonight I made sure to keep the calendar clear. And oh boy, did it ever feel good to get back on the court and brush up on those skills. I wasn't up to my game, but considering how long its been, I thought I held my own. It was an hour of heaven. Oh how I miss that part of my life. I used to spend 12+ hours each week practicing and during club season, most of my weekends were consumed by tournaments. I literally lived and breathed that game. Thanks mom and dad for allowing me the opportunity to play for so many years!
