Here I am on my way back to the office after a wickedly fun battle on the badminton court. I  don't exactly look all beaten and bruised, but don't be fooled - I was actually stricken 3 times by fiercely smashed shuttles, one of which might have even left a mark on my delicate skin.  But alas, despite all this fierceness, I suspect we will be back next week battling it out all over again.  

That is, unless the tennis court nets are back up, then we will be at it in tennis form. (YES, please GOD let it be so!)
