At the beginning of each season, we each get a jersey to use for the season.  I usually try to pick first so I can pick a number I like, usually 3, 8, or 11.  Sometimes, I pick based on size.  Every night after a basketball game, I hand-wash my jersey and hang it up to dry in the shower.  The next morning, I always hang it on my door knob so that I know where it is when I go to games.

The season came and the season went.  We turn in our jerseys at the last game.  Shortly after, an email gets sent out to our team, the green team, saying that they are missing jerseys of various numbers.  I actually had no idea what number I was that season because who looks at their own number.  All I know is that I turned in a jersey and people saw me.  Anyway, then I get an email saying that the jersey I had was missing.  The green #4 jersey.  I thought, that’s weird, 4 doesn’t sound too familiar because I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t pick 4.  But who knows.  Then I remembered that one of the other people in the league came out to the last game or second to last game and took photos.  I look through the photos and guess what…the jersey I was wearing was a green #8!  Ha!  So I told the people that run the league that I was #8 – go look at the pictures.

The lady goes hmm ok that’s weird.  And she tells me she did see me turn in a jersey!  So whatever.  They’re still missing a bunch of jerseys including #4.  I tell her I’ll look for it but really, I don’t think that I have it because I only ever have one.  On occasion, people sub for other teams and you just borrow the other teams jerseys so maybe someone subbed for us and got the #4 jersey.  Anyway, I forget about it since the lady saw me turn in a jersey.

On Monday, the lady is like, hey I want to show you something!  She shows me the booklet where she writes down from the first game everyone’s new jersey number – sure enough she has #4 by my name.  I tell her I’ll look again, but probably don’t have it cause I don’t even know where it could be!  I have no idea where that jersey is and I still really don’t think I have it.  So, I’m not sure what to do.

What will suck is if I do end up finding it here because I was so adamant about not having it.  But really….why would I have both of them!??!

Let me know if you ever come over and see a green #4 jersey.
