I've never played sports before, should I try in high school?
Ok, I’m going into 8th grade, and I’ve never played an organized sport before. I’m not in shape but I’m not really hefty and I find running really fun. The only sports experiences I have are: 1. Swimming (I took private lessons at the Y for a year and got to the point everywhere I just swam laps for 45 mins and I really liked it, but I can’t swim that well anymore) and 2. Tennis (I took a tennis camp for 3 weeks and it wasn’t really professional, but I learned the basic things about tennis. I also really liked this).
Must I play a sport in high school/could I make any teams? Here are the sports for girls at my school:
Basketball, Bowling, Cheerleading, Crew, Fencing, Field Hockey, Golf, Gymnastics, Ice Hockey, Lacrosse, Soccer, Softball, Swimming, Tennis, Track & Field, Indoor Track, Volleyball, and Cross Country.

Why is my cat shedding so much?
I have a domestic small hair orange tabby cat named Jax. He is about 3 years ancient and strictly an indoor cat for the past year, before that he was mostly outdoor who came inside occasionally. After getting in a terrible fight and an 0 vet bill, i chose to make him indoors permanently.
I’m having distress trying to figure out why he is constantly shedding. The amount of hair looks about habitual for a season exchange but it’s staying continuous. I’ve had many other cats before and even my long haired ones didn’t shed this much all the time.
I brush Jax with an electric brush about every other day, and sometimes with a regular cat brush on the off days depending if he needs it which he usually does. When I use the electric brush I always get enough hair off him to form between a baseball and softball size ball. The hair is not in clumps but and he doesn’t have any bald spots. He also doesn’t scratch excessively, and does not have any fleas or mites as I have checked him thoroughly.
I was wondering if this could be caused from stress in view of the fact that he also flicks his tail back and forth constantly, but I’m really not sure what would be stressing him out. He’s got a pretty cushy life.
Anyway I’m hoping someone here is a vet or vet tech or have some sort of qualification to answer my question although all opinions and thoughts are salutation. I’m trying to avoid taking him in to the vet in view of the fact that this isn’t a serious problem, but if I need to I will. Thanks!

How can I continue to practice softball pitching in the winter?
I know it’s a long time until it’s too cold outside to practice softball pitching, but anyways..
I want to continue practicing pitching to keep up my arm strength and accuracy for next season. I do not have access to indoor facilities to practice anywhere, I don’t reckon. And I tried pitching sock balls into a stood up matress in the basement, but it didn’t have the same effect as my basement isn’t long enough as the pitching distance. I’m not allowed to practice in our garage any.
Any suggestions help! Thanks

OVER CONTROLLING LESBIAN GF??? PLEASE HELP?
Alright, so my girlfriend and I will be together 8 months as of tomorrow. We are both 15. She is more of a butch, i am more of a femme. We are both technically in the closet, as of our parents do not know. But the majority of her friends know, and some of mine do as well.
She plays basketball, softball. I run cross country and track, This is our freshman year in high school, and i did cross country. But she didn’t want for me to do indoor track because we would see eachother a lot less often. She didnt do basketball any. But now she is wanting to do softball, and she isn’t letting my object, but when the topic of me doing cross country comes up for next year, she is 100% against it and says that if i’m not willing to give it up for her that I am not really in like. That relationships are all about giving up things for one another.
But i don’t reckon I must have to give up that for her! It makes me lucky! She comes from a family of five, I only have my mom and I. she doesnt know meeting around bored all day while my mom i s at work. She doesnt let me wear v-neck shirts (which takes up 1/2 of my shirts) or shorts. She limits my wardrobe. But she can wear whatever she feels like.
She also has taken away my friends, i only really have two now. But she has tons, and i always have to hear about all of her excellent times with them, although out side of school she only really sees me.
I know it seems obvious i must dump her – but i really am in like, with everything about her! if she leaves me i will have nothing. i have no one to fall back on now. i haven’t made one single new friends through out my whole high school year so far. in middle school i had tons of friends, but i have blown them all off. i am so confused!
we have made plans to spend perpetually together. i want that to come right. and i do not want to dump her under ANY ceromstances!!!! whenever i bring up something like this is just turns into a fight. and then she’ll be mad at me for a while, and then she’ll initiation acting all cute and pretend that nothing happened.
please, just please help me!

why am I losing so much weight.?
im 13 and 4′11 and here lately I have been losing a lot of weight. About a month I went to the doctor for my checkup and I weighed 84. The next time a went to the doctor which was about 2 weeks later I weighed 82. I had lost 2 pounds. I went to the doctor yesterday and weighed 75. I eat a habitual diet. I eat three meals a day. I eat breakfast. Then dinner when I get home from school because our food is nasty. Then I eat supper around 5 then go out and run. I run anywhere from a mile to 5 miles a day. Its according to how everything goes that day. Also at PE at school we run a mile each day. Then we play kickball, football, or softball and if it is cold or drizzling we play volleyball or indoor football. For breakfast I usually have 2 pieces of bacon, 1 egg, a piece of toast, and milk or orange juice. The it varies for supper and dinner. But we always have 1 meat, 2 vegetables, and a healthy desert. Am I exercising to much or what. Im not depressed or anything and im very athletic. Most of my weight is muscle. What could it be. I have to go to the doctor again on the 1st of April for a checkup because my weight is dropping so much. Please help. I still have TONS of energy!!!!!! I feel fantastic but my parents are concerned.

Parents and adults what do you think of me?
My names Stan, im 46yrs ancient, a retired member of the Coast Guard and I have a total of 7 kids (4 biological, 2 step, 1 adopted). I have 2 biological sons from my first marriage who are 20 and 18, my wife has 2 kids from her first marriage a son age 22 and a daughter age 20. Together we adopted a son at age 7 who in now 18, we have a 16yr ancient daughter together, and a 10 yr ancient son together. My oldest son from marriage-one is in the Coast Guard like I was, and my other son from the first marriage will leave in july to go through basic for the Coast Guard. My wife’s two children from her first marriage are both in institution to become engineers. Our adopted son who is 18 is going to institution for Musical Education, our 16yr ancient daughter we had together in a 2 sport varsity sportsperson who wants to be a Engineer as well.
My wife works two jobs, I work one job, and coach at the high school which is a paid position, so between the two of us we have 4 jobs. I spend time with my kids everyday, and help with homework and anything else they need.
I try hard to always be there for my kids, and 3-4 days ago when my 16yr ancient daughter was hit by a softball (playing indoor league) which broke a rib and punctured her lung, causing it to collapse, I coach her team, and I was there when it happened, I haven’t left her side for days as she had a chest tube place in and they had to do surgery to fix the rib.
My question is this, many people see me as someone who “cant keep it in his pants” ……I am wondering how many of you feel that same way, that I don’t care about my kids, and I just have them all cause I cant keep it in my pants????
well in view of the fact that it was my 16yr ancient daughters nurse in the hospital 2 days ago who said it when she questioned about my family shes like "well you seem like one of those guys who needs to keep it in his pants" and i was like ok then in view of the fact that im one of the few dads who got custody of my kids from my 1st marriage and then took in my 2nd wife’s kids and raised them as my own, then adopted one that i didn’t have to and then had two more of my own children, i raised all these kids for the last 16+ years and wouldn’t trade a single one for the world, i like them all and they all like me and call me dad….
Now i wonder if the nurse is right, her comment has made me following guess my own kids….
