new experiences
This weekend was full of doing stuff that i have never done before. Friday night we went with Chad and T to Canterbury. Where T taught me how to bet on the ponies, and we got more then a little noisy about the whole thing. I managed to win a couple bucks after i stopped betting on horses because they had cool names. Saturday morning was another outing with Chad and T. They took us golfing. I had a hard time hitting the ball without missing 3 or 4 times first, but every once in awhile i got a good hit in, which made all the crappy ones worth it. We also went to the driving range on sunday, where i was again making miserable progress with my ability to actually HIT the golf ball. Then this 12 year old walks up, parks next to me and starts smashing the hell out them. good lord…I am sure i will be out on the course again soon…swinging, missing, swinging, losing balls, swearing all the fun stuff that goes with golfing. In a week from tomorrow i am taking Calvin to his first show. I invited my mom along…to drive me to the hospital.
