The Weekend

Well, it's been a busy week already! More on work after a bit. The weekend was fairly uneventful compared to the previous one. Although, there were some challenges to overcome this past weekend. The first was when I woke up, and got ready to hit the road to Watertown, and needed to jumpstart. No problem, I can make coffee! So, I made the cup of coffee, and could not find my travel mug. It's bright green, so it's easy to spot, but no where to be found. So, I went to pick up two things from Coborns, and thought that I'd just grab one quick there. So, I got there, and the only one they had was $14.99. I thought that was just ridiculous, so I decided that since Shopko is attached, it should be no problem, just head over there and grab one. CLOSED. Apparently very few places in Mitchell not named Coborns or Walmart open prior to 9am. So, I went to the hardware store up the street, and they had every kind of mug except a travel one. I thought to myself, "This should not be this hard to find a decent mug!" Finally, I found one at Walgreens, and was able to hit the road. To Watertown we go, for soccer!

We had a pretty good showing this past weekend. We beat Huron 3-0, and Mitchell 6-2. I was kind of upset by giving up 2 goals, but I got over it pretty quickly. I had no discussions or disagreements with any referees either! That was a major plus. So now, we are off until the week after Memorial Day, when we'll be in action at Yankton prior to going to the State tournament the first weekend of June! So I returned to Mitchell, to enjoy my Sunday. Following Church, I decided to hit the greens! I golfed an entire 18 holes, the first 9 alone, the back nine with a couple of guys from work. So, the first nine, I improved my score by 2 strokes from the week previous. I was quite satisfied by this, and ended quite well. The back nine, i was doing quite well, except for the final hole, in which I got a 9, and lost the game by 1 stroke. No one to blame by myself, it was just awful execution. My consolation prize was bad sunburn. I was fine Saturday, not fine Sunday. I sunburned my neck quite badly, and my arms were sunburned too, but I didn't learn this until my shower on Monday Morning. That was not a fun activity.

Ohh, I mentioned work. I'm increadibly busy, and got assigned a new shift! I would normally be upset, but I'm happy actually now that I'm going to work 7am to 4pm. I'm pretty sure that it's a sign that I'm getting old. I'd just as soon not sleep in and work at 7am. What is wrong with me?!?!?!!
