On a Lighter Note

Since the last few posts have been a little bit heavy, I thought that I'd let you in on another major, though maybe not quite as serious, happening here in my wonderful city. As the locals say, Summer came! Yes it did, and very suddenly. Last Monday night I took a light jacket to English class with me. There was still a bit of a nip in the air. Today I was sweating out of my fingernails.

We can argue over whether it's hotter here or in CO or in good ole SC or wherever. It doesn't really matter to me. I'm not in those other places. I'm here. I'm here and it's hot. It just saps the life right out of me. By the time I got to church, I was already tired. I know I looked spaced out throughout the whole service. It wouldn't have been so bad if there had been more than 10 or 15 people at church. But since (according to the Shark) everyone went to the beach (not a bad idea), I have reason to believe that my sleepy eyes and glazed over look was easy to spot from the pulpit. If I wasn't tired enough already, I had what ended up being an almost two hour volleyball marathon outside of the church with my 11 year old Turkish professor. After that, a dozen games of 8-ball at Layla's Billiard Salon, and a long, hot bus ride home, I am sweaty, a little smelly, and DONE.

Tiger baseball is down to Boston College in the fifth in the first game of a double header. I love and support my Tigers in every sport and in every way. But I can not stay up much longer. Go Tigers, let's get some runs!
