Relentless sports fanatics....

Hi. My name is Vicki. I am an asthmatic smoker, who works out, enjoys long walks and hikes.  I play billiards in a league and enjoy a good impromptu Bocce match on occasion.  I do not, however, enjoy playing softball, football, flag football, basketball, or any other sport that involves running combined with round shaped objects.  I do not enjoy them, because I am not good at them.  It has nothing to do with laziness, it has to do with a complete lack of talent for them.  I have attempted to play these sports numerous amounts of times and I have never enjoyed myself.  So please stop asking me.  Please.  Your constant pleading will make me annoyed and cause me to avoid you.  I do not beg you weekly to join my pool team.  I do not ask you to start smoking every time I pass you in the hall.  I am aware of the fact that just because I enjoy something not everyone else will enjoy it.  Also, I have very little money, so I do not want to join a gym, as it would be a complete waste of money to do so as I have a perfectly good one at my house.  I like working out alone, so that's how I'm gonna do it.  When I say no to these requests, I am berated and called lazy and no fun.  I am LOADS of fun and really not lazy.  Please stop it. It is rude, I do not promise you I will play or join you and just not show up, I am honest and thankful that you want my company during these moments in your life, but how about we find a common interest, and do that together. Sound good? OK great. thanks for hearing me out on that one, and lets get together in a non softball kind of way.
