So much material to update you all with. I believe there was one update from the California trip, but since then it was a long trip back from the Bay Area. A stop in Medford was required to wait for the Softball team to get in. That trip included a dinner at the Olive Garden with Beard and Kev, while the rest of the team twiddled their thumbs at the bowling alley. The rest of the evening was filled with nothing except for unnecessary stops from Medford to Salem that left Kev furious with complaints. The complaints were legit though. We were all tired and craving our own bed. Enough of the California trip though. Sticking with baseball though, last week was the Central Washington double header that apparently included some hecklers down the line heckling Beard and the rest of the Warriors all game long. Also included in that game was an ejection by Goat. That trip concluded with two more losses on the season. Then to top off baseball was the UBC series this last weekend. That also included an ejection, this time from Sasquatch. And once again, two more unfortunate losses on the season. Concluding that series, a certain individual has been charged by the house with one count of public deuchebaggery. Due to confidentiality, the name is to be withheld. In other news, baking has been important around the house. The desert menu includes chocolate and yellow cakes as well homemade brownies and ice cream. Jealous? I think I smell a yellow cake right now. Also worth mentioning is that Beard and I have dropped our last two bowling matches since the last blog update. The good news is that we still have yet to be swept. We manage to pull out a win in one of the three games played. During the Central Washington series, some individuals were unable to make the trip so we instead had a BBQ with chicken breasts and hamburgers. One sour guest spoiled the entire enjoyment of a BBQ. Bouncing back to baseball for one more update. Lanky (Braun) is back to give us some much needed help on the mound and did so against UBC despite taking the loss. As far as school goes, Beard, Lanky, and I have had a couple of good days in Psychology as we watched a movie on the US hockey team defeating the Russians, and spent a day or two discussing how to get lights on the baseball diamond. Following the Central Washington weekend, a couple roommates want me to note that Monday, which was supposed to be an off-day, was instead a work day to clean up the field. I already had a couple of off days. I now have my mentoring under control after a couple of meetings with FB. Speaking of FB, I was able to make a return to the diamond this last Friday against UBC. Coincidentally enough, FB was the one to say the prayer before the game. That marked a new chapter for me, and hopefully things will continue to move upward. For the UBC series, we broke out the new white uniforms. They look good, but did not get us a W. Can't blame the uniforms though. We also have a new addition to the house and one exit. The drier broke down so Beard and Kev's parents picked up a new drier and replaced the old one. It is a solid upgrade to the laundry/bathroom. Aside from that, the only other news is Cliffy de-activating his facebook. We will all see how long that lasts! Until the next time, have a good week. Signing off.
