Quizzing September 29, 2007
Posted by Anya in : spontaneous degeneration, smiling is good for you , trackbackToday was the first quiz meet.
It was exhausting.
It was a lot of fun…
me:Â “John, are you going to gamble away your team’s roster again?”
John:Â O_o “huh?”
me:Â “Remember… Districts… you had Bethany and Kenny on your team?”
John:Â o_O “Huhhhhh?”
me:Â “And you bet the roster —”
John:Â “I do not remember!”
Molly: *sigh* “Look at the way he’s standing so stiffly. Huh? ME?!?“
Tim: *comes over to me* *starts talking about the military show we were all at a few weeks ago*
us:Â *are going on and on about it*
Mark:Â (who was on my Districts team, and Tim’s regular team)Â *gives us look like What are you two quizzing on?“
I guess that it’s just unusual for quizzers from different churches to do things together outside of quizzing. But Tim and I have seen each other at two — count ‘em, TWO, non-quiz related activities in the past summer.
*gasp*
me:Â *trying to be an encouraging captain*Â “So, Lizzy, do you specialize in anything?”
Mr. G:Â (our lovely coach)Â *begins laughing uncontrollably*Â
me and Lizzy:Â *glare*
Mr. G:Â “I’m sorry –” *laughs*
us:Â *glare*
Mr. G:Â “It’s just — her FACE!”
us:Â *glare*
Mr. G:Â *laughs*
me:Â “You’re not very nice.”
Mr. G: “But did you see her face?!? It was SOOOOO funny! She’s just like, what???“
Lizzy:Â *glare*Â (she glares quite well)Â “Mr. G, I think we’re going to fire you as coach.”
Mr. G:Â *laughs*
Johnny: “Your paint did not help me. I did horribly in the Top Ten quiz!”
me:Â “Erm… that’s because you put too much on.”
Mr. D: “Emily, I’m sorry. Hugs (the little stuffed buddy) is not holding down his seat. I’m just going to turn his light off.”
*yawn*
More stories to follow, I’m sure…
Goodnight.
