Ok, so it's been a bit gloomy to date, so I thought I might let you in on a brighter side of me. To release some tension and have a little fun, I like to play a sport called Netball. For those who don't know what Netball is, it's a bit like basketball, except the different positions must stay within certain areas of the court, and once you have the ball, you cannot take another step. Check this Youtube clip for a visual demonstration of Netball.

I started playing Netball for the first time this year, and the high impact of the sport has been a lot for my body to get used to. Since the end of last season, where my team made the Grand Final, I have had a bruised toe nail. It has been over a month.

Two nights ago I played my first game for the season, and when I got home I realised that the same bruised toe was a little sore. That night, I was awoken at about midnight in absolute agony. My bruised toe was throbbing, and the pain was so bad I was unable to get back to sleep for hours.

At about 4am the pain started to subside a little. It still hurt, but I was able to get back to sleep.

When I awoke the next day, I looked at my toe and found that the bruise that had been there for over a month had gone! Even though the toe was hurting worse than ever!

I have heard of freak accidents reversing current injuries - like parachuting accidents curing blindless, etc. but I must say I am very surprised that with this new injury, my old bruise has completely gone!

On a sad note, we did lose the game,... by a lot... but, it was still a fun and friendly game.
