Tuesday, September 28

5:28 a.m. - Officiating basketball felt good last night.  My knee didn't feel great, and I'm too heavy, and junior high basketball is a little challenging at times, but it still felt good to be around basketball.  One thing I really don't like is the mask breaks in the middle of a period.  I think the game really gets longer even though it's only 8 90-second timeouts during the night.  Today, I'm going to work on those dang assignments and get them scored.  Nearly two weeks have gone by, and I try to go quickly, but what I'm trying to do with them is painstaking.  I talked to Chase last night via video-conference.  I miss him, and I wish I could see him more and talk with him.  My life and his life just don't mesh; I have to plan ahead and schedule everything that I want to make a priority due to umpiring/officiating, and he doesn't plan ahead and schedule anything.  Plus, because he lives with his mom, I can't just drop by and visit.  The net result is that he lives only 20 minutes away, and I never see him.  It sucks.  Cole is in Atlanta; Carmen lives in Burlington.  Life would just be nicer if they all lived around here, and I could just stop in and say hello and have a cup of coffee.
