Weekend...plus other half.

Weekend it is. Going to the drive-in tonight, first time ever. Tomorrow, rib cookout.

Tossed around

Finally got a decent chance to sit down at the computer & relax a bit. So this past weekend was three days instead of two outside of work. I took a long long long drive up the tiny town of Dalhart with Erin(her tiny hometown), a speck on the map if you want. It was definitely different than any place I've been to before. Four hours of riding horses around the town gave me a nice sleeve tan and nice red all over the neck. You know what that's called. After getting burned, the 4wheeler was next. The next day was hit with a splurge of tornados(16 that were counted at least), but I didn't get to see one and still haven't. Then the power went out everywhere, great! Playing UNO in the dark for hours was fun and definitely a ginormous challenge telling green from blue under candlelight. The three males won 2 games apiece while the females didn't get a single win. Ah, too bad. Then on Sunday was the candlelit service at church, different but good at the same time. There was actually a time on Saturday when we were out in the middle of field with no roads or anything about 1 foot you could see in all directions...making it pretty hard to tell which way was North, South, East or West. I actually felt lost, weird.

Now back to the routine & things with much much much shorter hair...ankle is almost healed up completely.

Tired & hungry. At least the chocolate milk stayed down!

So there was snow on the ground on Easter. That's sorta weird, especially for being out in Texas. Dad was here to join in on the confusion of the super cold temperatures. Eating was good this past weekend too, probably the best.

Anyway, last night I got a nice case of food poisoning, which would be my first I think. That meant zero sleep and an even crappier start to the day of having to go to work anyway. Now I'll have to take a long leave of visiting Little Italy for food. Boo!

fried buscuits really do taste good!

Went camping this past weekend...and ice fishing = fun!

Oh yea! That's how it is supposed to work!

Eight days, huh! So this past Thursday at the 3v3 basketball tournament...playing a short pickup game, I decided to grab a rebound. After, someone else's foot decided to break my fall, causing a loud snap(ouch! bad sprang) & me to hit the ground. Yay. What do I do despite the swelling & bad, bad, bad rotation pain? I play on it anyway, colors & all. Almost winning against the best team there, I had five 3s in their face, lol. Oh well, summer will be filled with more basketball stuff, and hopefully without anymore ankle problems. Plus, I'm almost walking normal again.

So trying to drive back home wasn't fun either, but Ab & mom were coming later...picked them up late at the airport, then headed to Wal-mart because females need to go there quite often apparently. So I bought an ace bandage...Not too bad now. The coloring isn't too bad. Eating at Fuji's was nice, following by Perini's Ranch the next day. Sorry Ab & mom, the disc golf will come next time when I'll be able to walk then. Thanks you two for coming out here again.

So Erin decides to be funny on the game night on the 23rd...She goes out and spends real money on a Duke(DooK) hat as a joke. Mom, Ab & me were planning on doing a ritual burning of the Duke product but Casey would've missed out, so we're going to be lighting it up soon. Sorry, DooK for the terrible year. Better luck never.

So the deadlift didn't stop on Wednesday despite the gimp ankle, still managed 410xFour! Almost April...time moving on. Ronnie, CEP will survive. Let it ride a month, haha.

Time flies by...what have I missed so far

Family arrives today late, after the 3v3 b-ball event. It better not rain tonight! Tomorrow, no work...instead having a good time every minute.

Again, called out...and again, not a lamer

Carolina...the last ACC team left in the tournament, and was also looking forward to seeing Texas play UNC, but oh well. Sorry Texas. We'll see what happens. Only a couple days until a good family visit & a 3v3 basketball tournament over at the healthclub.

For a second I wish the tide would swallow every inch of this city,
As you gasp for air tonight.
I'd scream this song right in your face if you were here!
I swear I won't miss a beat, cause I never have before

Dandy...with some sugar on top

Today marks a new step for the deadlift goal towards 500 pounds. I got a full rep on 470lbs...only 30 pounds away!!!

Batting cages & Erin & Casey...fun. Beating Erin at air hockey...a breeze. Watching Erin hit the puck so hard it flies across the entire game room...of course, priceless.
