Back to life
I still don't feel totally back from vacation. We had a fun time, and did a lot of different things which was good. Somehow I just can't seem to get my head back into what I am doing here. We are supposed to be making big plans for the fall and yet I am not dreaming like I was last spring. Something has changed in me. I may just be tired, but my whole self seems to be that way. I think that I need to dream with some of the other dreamers again, or maybe we just need to start doing things again to start dreaming again.
The new touch-football season has started. Actually this past week was the second week of football. I missed the first week. This week we played an established rival, a team that has been in the league almost as long as our team. We beat by 30 points by the end of the 3rd quarter (which means we did not play the 4th). While I did not catch a touchdown, I caught a couple of long balls and I caught 3 - 2 poiont conversions (you get 6 for a touchdown and either one or two for the conversion which is the play right after a touchdown). I also intercepted their only attempt at a convert (they only scored one touchdown). We are off to an 2-0 start. Next week I guess is the real test since we play a team that is in the b divsion and we are a c division team. Brace yourselves for my weekly updates as football season goes for the next couple of months.
