easy is the descent into hell.

game against kennedy today. i played singles. lost 17-21. jen said something about me having played against varsity, which i suppose is plausible, if you can say that their team is so small they were already recycling players by the time it got to me..

on my eleventh point, losing, this kid wearing jeans suddenly starts rallying off to the side with someone behind me, and then he walks onto the fucking court and rallies in the middle of my point. omfg. i stared at him in disbelief and started screaming. "EXCUSE ME. WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A GAME."

he looked over at me and cried, "oh, sorry!"

then their coach kicked him out and i redid the serve, feeling immensely rattled. i don't remember who scored on that, but i lost anyway.

...i have never seen someone so stupid.

sure, i've seen people walk onto courts in the middle of a game. and i've seen people stride right through the court as a shortcut in between points. hey, i just did that yesterday. but then, i knew the players, and i shouted "wait" first.

but...never in my life, has a human being been such a complete and utter dimwit that they would commence rallying...on someone's court...in the middle of an MVAL game.
