    An excuse to get out of P.E.? Man that was often the part of the day I looked forward to.

    I made a deal with my Sophomore-year Gym teacher that if I aced Health, I didn't need to participate in P.E.

    I think it was more I would look for any excuse to get out of doing anything.

    And that I'm a giant fucking nerd.

    For me it was that I hit my growth spurt early. So while I was a nerd, I was a 6ft nerd in the 6th grade. So it meant that for a lot of sports we played, I had either a height or size advantage. Admittedly sometimes it caused me to be a dumb ass, like the time I body checked my gym teacher while playing floor hockey.

    Yeah, I hit my growth spurt around 11 or 12, so I was 6'3" in Seventh Grade... but I also still only weighed 130lbs... so competitive outdoor activities and I stopped getting along. I suppose I could have been a runner or played volleyball, but I didn't enjoy either of those activities.
