6:18 a.m. - The issue between Ukraine and Russia has now escalated to the point that all 18-16 year old males in Ukraine have been ordered to defend the country. There was a story this morning on the news of a man exiting a police station having been issued two guns. He was asked if he knew how to use them, and he said he did not. Another story interviewed two brothers that were headed into the country from Poland, and they said they were going back to fight. The situation is heartbreaking ... citizens that are not trained attempting to hold off a superpower's fighting forces. Geez.
Tonight is my last basketball game of the season. I wish it wasn't. I wish I had a boys sectional game, but I'll have to be satisfied with working a regional championship tonight. The game is between Ridgewood and United. I know both coaches very well, so that will be fun to work with them. I also know Wethersfield's gym very well. And finally, I know my two partners very well. The gym is going to be full; it's going to be hot; it's going to be loud. Honestly, this type of game and atmosphere makes the grind of officiating an entire season very rewarding - I totaled up the games I worked - 115 - all high school games. I would feel a little better if I had worked a girls sectional final or a boys sectional game, but I wasn't selected to do either. I know I should be happy with what I was selected, but basically, I didn't advance at all this season from the previous season, and that's the disappointing part. I worked my ass off for an entire season, worked all those games, and I didn't advance.
Today should be fairly quick at school. I'll get a journal write in and allow students to express their thoughts on the Ukraine situation or anything else they want to express. Then they can wrestle with Thoreau and transcendentalism.
