Just kidding. I thought this title would be funny considering the "I am the shit" blog that I did earlier. I was also kidding then....hmmm, does anyone see a pattern here?
Yesterday was a bit of a rough day. I got the news that I didn't make the worlds team. Disappointing, for sure. I'm really glad to have gained the experience of the tryout. Also, it was nice to see that the people who ended up making the team were seriously good! Congrats to Viv for making the team (the only Alberta girl).
I decided to "celebrate" by getting blisteringly drunk. Oopsa. I decided to have a glass of wine and watch the hockey game, and it just sort of worked out that way. Clearly my 29-years-wise has not taught me that if you get really drunk on a Sunday night, you will have a hangover that could kill a rhino at work the next day.
This should put it in perspective for you: I puked 12 times. 12.
Thanks to everyone who was routing for me, keeping their figures crossed, etc. All of the emails, texts etc were totally appreciated.
Oh yes, I nearly forgot: too add insult to injury, I accidentlly dropped my iPod in about a foot of water in my washer yesterday. There is a reason they don't call it an iSwim.

It's amazing how much it changes removing one word (the) because you go from being the shit, to just shit.
We're all super proud of you despite not making it and I think Traffic can learn alot from watching Arrested Development...they've make a huge mistake!
I agree with Lindsay. Traffic knows not what they've done. I was very disappointed when I read your post. Maybe they didn't see enough of your dazzling upwind points. Maybe they can't shake the memory of you as a rookie, way back when a few of them played with Calgary. Maybe you're too consistent and not flashy enough. You're in fantastic shape right now, and your brain for the game absolutely amazes me - I don't know how they missed it. Calgary ultimate is lucky to have you, and we/they know it.

"I am shit?" Could you please be more specific? What type of shit are you? . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

(I highly recommend scrolling down and listening to Part Two).
Man, I wish you'd posted a blog while you were drunk . . . entitled "I am Shit-faced."
You will notice one shit type missing from the Bristol Stool Scale . . . type 8: THE. The Shit. Because in more ways than one, you are THE shit, Hez . . . although I think Lindsay and Marcie have a bit more poetic way of saying it than me :-)
