Monday's are always tough. Have you ever tried to fall asleep, and been absolutely exhausted, but still unable to actually fall asleep. Story of my life. Still, I made it through plants pretty easily. Shockingly our prac did not involve sectioning plants and making slides. As we have literally done that in every other prac so far this year. It got old about 45 minutes into the first prac. It was an almost exciting relief and change of pace. It also only took about an hour to cut a slice out of seeds, put hormones in the hole, and then plant them. Rest of the day casual work and napping until rugby practice. I was actually really happy with rugby practice today, last week i felt pretty sluggish and out of it. We did some normal touch and warm up stuff then we practiced scrums. This helps explain the title of the post. The middle of the front line is called the hooker. No not because he pleasures clients off the street after practice, but because in the scrum he hooks the ball with his foot and kicks it back to his team. The experienced coaches (Schmidty, Brady, some guy from last week) thought my body type was appropriate. It seemed to work pretty well, plus i dont need to do too much of the pushing part, more getting the ball. Brady gave us the ringing endorsement that he'd seen much worse.
We also did some actual game play. the side i was on did really well even though the two largest guys were on the other side. I even got a tackle, or at least part of a tackle on branchy. We were able to overpower the otherside during ruks and steal the ball. It was fun
Then got back to fisher and made myself dinner without burning the wooden spoon. Yes I was pretty proud of myself. Then we watched Game of Thrones. It was better than the last two weeks. So a good day, and tomorrow I get to go to the Zoo. it will be awesome unless there's too much rain
