6:10 a.m. - Today is going to be a doozy. I'm not excited about working five games today. I'm not excited about the warm temps, even though I do appreciate the breeze that is supposed to be present. Thank you Mother Nature for that. Yesterday wasn't much fun...three games, and I had to sit around for a couple of hours between game two and game three. Plus, the games were all terrible. I know all the girls need a chance to play, and I know the coaches want to get them games. I really struggle, though, when it seems like no one really wants to be on the field.
So today...two games in Muscatine and then three in Burlington. I'm going to get home late; I'm going to be dead tired; it's going to suck.
I received the name of the dumb ass that decided to grab Cole last Sunday while Cole was trying to umpire his game. Apparently time expired and things escalated to the point where the coach was ejected and then went and grabbed Cole. He's apparently just an ass...but muscle head dude that apparently wants to throw his weight around.
I still don't have my truck back. I left my check with them yesterday, but Trent said there were some additional problems that needed some work. I'm going to give them a call today and try to get an update.
Tomorrow's forecast has some rain, but it looks like temps are going to cool off, and most of the weekend is going to be cooler, which will be nice. I'm going to keep a camping weekend in mind as I try to get through the day today. Even though we are just going to Loud Thunder, I'm excited to get the camper out and get to the campground - it will be the official start to my summer break.

- get a haircut
- pick up officiating shoes
- HHR oil change
- get truck back from Slayden's
