We had a Best Buddies “thanksgiving” on Friday. After the potluck, everyone enjoyed themselves with a little karaoke. I was chillin with a few of the parents when I heard them call my name. They were challenging me to an arm wrestle. The student they wanted me to arm wrestle seemed skinny and scrawny enough, so I agreed. After all, I had been lifting weights. Surely I’d be able to waste him. I’d go easy on him, I thought, make it look like a struggle at least. I wouldn’t want to embarrass the poor boy.
Well, turns out that I didn’t have to “act” like it was a struggle because it WAS a struggle. I was able to keep it up for a little bit, but he finally slammed my arm down. I shrugged it off and told everyone that I let him win.
