A few months ago I sprained my rotator cuff playing ultimate. that caused me to do a little digging to find out just what that injury was all about. I found that that it can take quite a while to heal back to 100%. I recall one source saying “up to six months.” I also recall [...]

Today was the first weekend of AFDC Spring League. Lots of fun. I ended up landing funny during the first game and doing something bizarre to my (right) shoulder. Smart Pete would have stopped playing, iced it, and rested. Smart Pete doesn’t play ultimate frisbee, though, so he was at home. Instead, I played the [...]

When was the last time I played on a competitive men’s ultimate team in a tournament. My first year of law school, maybe? It’s been several years. This weekend I played at Terminus with an Atlanta team. Surprisingly, I’m not nearly as rusty as I expected to be. Friday went with Jenn to meet a bunch [...]

Yesterday’s interview went almost as well as it could have, but this is a post about today, so that job-search-related information will have to wait for another time. I woke up late today, which something I’m really going to miss when I have a job. I looked around the house and realized that it was passably [...]

Note: In this post I will attempt to describe my weekend by using each and every one of the 86 words that were submitted by my certifiably insane readers on this post. Such words will be italicized. PS: I took some liberties. It’s called “art”. Get over it. In college, weekends were when I would get [...]

So back when I was playing ultimate more regularly I would take my camera. I took it to North Carolina for Queen City Tune-up. Several weeks ago, a guy who also contributes ulty pictures to Flickr asked if he could use one of my QCTU pictures for a banner for a PR campaign that they’re [...]

What’s been going on in my life lately? WHO CARES! Moot court is finished. At least for the fall. Octofinalists are announced on the 17th. Unlike some folks, I am not playing it off as though I don’t want to advance or don’t care. I’d like to advance. I won’t lose any sleep over it if [...]

First off, at Key Club International Convention last week my baby sister was elected to Key Club International Trustee… the Holiday Dynasty rolls on. Congrats, sis! Today the Ultimate Frisbee team went 4-0 in pool play at our tournament. I played alright, though not a whole lot because I haven’t been making practices. I had no [...]

So, we got second in our tournament. We lost 14-15 to Miami of Ohio in the finals. It was fun, but we lost two games, and I hate losing. Now, I’m not going to sell myself short… I do some pretty ridiculous things on the fields. There are, of course, plenty of people who do [...]

First off, don’t forget to AskPete — I’ve only got a few usable questions left. Friday I left first thing in the morning to catch a flight to Austin (via STL). The team wanted us to be at the airport three hours early. This was ridiculous, so I went two hours early. I got some work [...]
