I really think that it's something that everyone should read every day, until they're just living it every day... :) Speaking of doing everything with love (it's up there), I happened upon a pair of very happy photos over the past few days. Have I ever mentioned that I love Facebook???
The top photo shows my friend and former student-athlete Jennifer, who it appears got married very recently... :) I'm pretty positive that Jenn was one of the players in one of my favorite stories (I tell several favorite stories, but this is indeed one of them). I was walking toward the gym during the morning athletic period when I encountered a small group of our 9th grade basketball players. I had heard or read a line very recently that I wanted to try out, and I knew that these ladies had a good sense of humor, so I stopped them in the hallway. I looked them over for a few seconds, rolled my eyes and shook my head, and exclaimed, "Too many freaks and not enough circuses..." I got a chorus of "Awwww..." from the ladies, but they knew me and that it was all in good fun, and now they're all getting MARRIED... :) Where did the time go??? Congratulations Jenn - you look so happy! :D And speaking of time passing, it seems like only yesterday that Jessica was "Lil Villalpando." Okay, Jess will always be "Lil Villalpando," but now she's getting married in less than a month. And did you notice, Jessica's getting married on the first day of the college football season??? :P Congratulations Jessica, and ANOTHER great photo...
Now we transition from pure bliss to sheer terror. My friend Rene and his daughter posed for a photo recently...
All I've gotta say is if they gave out Oscar's for photos, that little girl would be holding a trophy. So funny... And then there's our letter to the postman. I'm stealing this from my friend Callie, and on any given day I could steal between three and five things that she shares on Facebook...
My favorite parts are "or brutal murder" and the drawing that identifies the spider. Great stuff... :)
Now I guess it's time to catch up with me. I've been back in the desert for just over two months now, which is a little early based on my past behavior. Because most apartment leases in San Marcos end on July 31st (due to it being a college town), I have made the 20-hour drive from San Marcos to Las Vegas twice in the last five years at the end of July. Can you believe that it's already August? As stated previously, I'd like this month to fly by also, as I'm eagerly awaiting cooler temperatures and the start of football (and better poker games, a topic that I addressed in my other blog). I still walk most everywhere, but my friend Joey is back from his extended Philippines (try spelling that without searching it) vacation, so a trip to Walmart is in store for this week. Joey and my brother Pete, who will be making football picks with me in the near future, and just the vacation guys now. Pete will be going on vacation to California with his family very shortly, and then Joey and his girlfriend will also be going out to Cali, because 2 1/2 weeks overseas just isn't enough, right? :) I'll be having a similar experience here in Las Vegas, just without an ocean. Ho, hum...
In about a month, be expecting these posts on Mondays or Tuesdays, because Sundays will be filled with poker, football, and/or sleep. Yes, I realize it's Monday, but I intended to write this last night... :)
ANYWAY, that's all I've got for right now, but have a great week, and I'll see you soon!
