It may have had something to do with our post-racquetball conversation yesterday that went like this..<\/p>\n<p>ME: If you hate racquetball so much then don&#8217;t play with me. It&#8217;s not like I force you to play.<\/p>\n<p>BRIAN: I&#8217;ve told you numerous times that I don&#8217;t want to play and yet you make me anyway.<\/p>\n<p>ME: If you don&#8217;t want to play racquetball with me, all you have to do is say so. I&#8217;ll find other people to play with. It&#8217;s just that it&#8217;s hard to find someone to play with because no one likes to play cut throat. They either want to play singles or doubles and we&#8217;re going to be one person short. If you&#8217;re going to be half-assed about it then I&#8217;d rather you didn&#8217;t play with me.<\/p>\n<p>BRIAN: But if I don&#8217;t play with you, you&#8217;ll find some strapping, hot, young guy to play with and then you&#8217;ll leave me.<\/p>\n<p>ME: That&#8217;s the idea.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m a horrible, horrible person &#8211; I know. LOL!<\/p>\n<p>Just so you all know that I&#8217;m honest, I actually lost today. Which is why I&#8217;m sitting here blogging instead of still playing racquetball. At around eight o&#8217;clock, Brian and I were sitting at two wins each. He decides to bet me the last game that if he wins we quit playing and if I win we get to stay until nine o&#8217;clock.<\/p>\n<p>He won the last game and so we had to cut the two-hour racquetball session that I had schedule short. But he only won because he hit my left boob with the racquetball and it hurt like a bitch.<\/p>\n<p>ME: Son of a bitch! (as I grab my left breast to ease the pain; Brian thinks it&#8217;s hilarious and can&#8217;t stop laughing) Dude, it hurts! I may never be able to breast-feed. It&#8217;s not funny! I think it&#8217;s swollen! (Brian starts laughing even harder)<\/p>\n<p>BRIAN: Enjoy it before it shrinks back to its regular size!<\/p>\n<p>How can anyone concentrate on playing a serious game after that? That is BS! That is cheating. We&#8217;re supposed win based on our own physical, racquetball prowess. Psychological warfare isn&#8217;t allowed! Ugh. You can always count on Brian to cheat. He goes, &#8220;I&#8217;ll win however I can.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s fine. At least I&#8217;m not the one who&#8217;s shaving my balls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So Brian decided he&#8217;s going to continue playing racquetball with me despite his protestations yesterday.
