such and such

Well, my foot is swollen and when I tried to hit, I could barely run.  Actually I couldn't run but the athletic trainers gave me a new pad to put on my foot and it worked better although I have yet to play in it.  We have a conference match tomorrow though.  So I guess I'll test it out then.

I feel like I'm falling behind and just when I get motivated enough to get ahead, I find out that someone is already there.  I've missed my chance.  Thus forcing myself to settle for something less than I want but I'd rather settle and have a little something than nothing at all right?
