bag left in the counter. arms in position. serious faces. a serious position and stance. i try to elevate my heel as i aim to shoot hoops. to a passerby, i may have looked like i was up for championships. but really, i was just concentrating on getting a score - anything!
i shoot. it hits outside the ring. i shoot again. it hits inside, but gets thrown back, like food that it decides, after tasting it, that it will not eat after all. rejected. it was disappointing to have an “almost there“. then i try again. at last, i got lucky!
my hands were sore after shooting baskets. but i was proud of my accomplishment - 74 points. nevermind that james got 115 (i was hoping nobody would notice that, though). the important point is i didn’t get a 0.
i‘ll beat you next time, james. watch out! :)
