Thrice Lost

Today I went to pickleball. Surprisingly, I wasn't even very late. For the first time since I have been there this break, "the man" was there. He challenged me to a game of singles. The first game was fairly close. I was actually in the lead for quite a while. Eventually, I lost. Then I lost again and then again. They were good games, but I am just too rusty to beat such a skilled player. It was fun though, but it would have been even funner to win before going back to college.
