Adulting hurts

The annual club volleyball tryout weekend... SW had 3 clubs lined up.  
1) He gets a Sunday call back
2) He wasn't going to make it.. too prominent of a Bay Area club
3) didn't even go... his former coach reserved him a spot

After his Sunday call back... Joyce texts me... "He's disappointed and sad.  I'm done after this year" The club he wanted to play for already has two setters... and SW won't get play time.  This was the club all his friends departed for, last season, and he was left behind here.  It's a brutal reality when you realize adulting is hard... and adulting hurts.

Then later... as it turns out... SW's been doing some politic-ing on the side.  For whatever reason, he convinced a bunch of his friends to ditch club #1, and come join him at club #3.  Adulting... go figure.
