Things and stuff - September ‘08
Sorry I haven’t been very good about updating lately. Not too much different going on in my life right now, but that can be a good thing. School, work, volleyball and trying to sleep are about all I do.
I’m exhausted from the election. I tried to stay on top of every new attack ad, every argument going on, and all the latest polls and maps, but it’s just too much. I’m so tired of arguing my case to everyone, tired of putting too much weight on polls and electoral maps that will change 80 billion times between now and November 4th. I’m not saying I don’t care about the election anymore, far from it. I’m just taking a little break from it for a while. Hopefully the debate on Friday will get me excited again.
Volleyball has been good, and a great learning experience. It’s quite the eye-opener then you’ve beenplaying for 5 years and you find out that pretty much every move you’ve been making has been wrong. So much of how I play needs to be tweaked and improved. I’m very rough around the edges, but I’m so glad to have this opportunity to learn from some great players. Our coach is very experienced in the sport, having played with some of the best players in the world in Hawaii and elsewhere. Some of the guys on our team have been playing competitively for over 5 years and have even extended their school careers so they can have another run of eligibility on the team. It will be exciting when things ramp up near the end of the year.
My fantasy football team is doing ok. I’m approaching a 2-1 record so far (after tonight’s game) and it’s been fun watching games and cheering on my players. I never thought I’d be interested in the NFL but this helps make it more fun. Plus something has to make up for the Detroit Lions. Ugh.
So yeah, that’s life. How’s your life? Leave a comment or send me an email.
