Mom and Dad did indeed come down for a visit last weekend, while Greg’s sons were playing at All-State (something Greg himself never got to do. I, of course, did).
I immediately put Dad to work and we stapled my television to the wall. We also managed to hang three sets of mini blinds, cook raw hamburger (well, it started out frozen and ended up raw), visit Jenny and eat Greek food.
My friend Dave Willard died last week, so Jenny and I drove up to G’ville for his memorial service on Friday. I had an unofficial wake for him here last night with a couple of my camping buddies from the UFFP.
They are currently dead to the world on my couches. Guess the thought of sleeping in my guestroom was too much for them. I have no idea what they did all night – I went to bed at 11:00.
Miss Cynthia – I’ve put in for the first two weeks of July and the week around Christmas this year. That work for you? I think you said you’d be at Ahmic starting on the 7th. If that’s correct, I’ll probably join you on the 7th or 8th and stay until the following Thursday or Friday. And if Chez Tall is open on Christmas week, I’ll see you then too!
This is, naturally, assuming that I still have a job in July and December. If not, I’ll be living in your garage.
For the intrepid travelers among you, the Georgia Brass Band will be playing at the NABBA championships in Louisville on March 31 and April 1. Someplace called Indiana University South or something. I’m hoping to make the trip. From what I’ve heard, the band has gotten incredibly good since I quit it. I’m thinking about rejoining it in the not-too-distant future and bringing it back down to my level.
My current winning streak on Playstation NCAA football is approaching 200 games.
And I was in All-State.
