Here is the difference from my first week here till now.
Golf at Black Diamond
We have a weekly golf game now. Every Friday we play. None of us are that great, but playing best ball we were pretty much par golfers.
I had the best shot of the day and the worst shot of the day.
Worst shot: Wedge shot from about 25 yards that flew over the green and hit a shed causing a vacationing family to run away in terror.
Best shot: Par four dogleg left. Flew over some trees, couldn't see the hole. Dave said,

"I hope we can find it". We get around the dogleg and the ball has landed about 15 yards from the hole on the green. So we had an eagle attempt, which we missed, but we did birdie the hole, we used only my shots, so i had my first legit birdie on a par four. I also for the first time hit a par four green from the tee box, which obviously means i'm super strong. I'm dissapointed that my dad wasn't able to be there for my first mega-shot, sadly he will still kick my ass when he is 80.
Dave and I could have won the game if i would have played anywhere close to decent the first 4 holes. I'll admit it here, for not playing golf that often, Dave is pretty damn good.
Here are some pictures from the inaugural game.

Softball season begins
So i am playing softball with a team up here.
It is 12 inch softball...the pure softball. Usually yearly i play 16 inch in Chicago.
16 inch softball sucks. Playing REAL softball again made me realize this.
I got there late so i played the 4th inning on, and went 2 for 2 with 3 RBI's

Wallet stolen, then returned...somewhat lighter
So tonight at the Salmon Bake, i lost my wallet.
It was the scariest 30 minutes of my life. Eventually it was found, 40 dollars lighter...
This was a dumb blog entry....
I had to do it, it was a shitty night.

Mai Tai correction
So I told Melanie that I blogged about our new "band" she was not happy with the spelling..
So it is written MaiTai, is now MyTy...
This needed to be done, before band bridges were burned.

Beardwatch 08--The Extravaganza
Recipe for a good time.
1. Create a fake holiday, give it a snappy title, let everyone know that it is on the horizon.
2. Mention fake holiday a few times a day, keeping it in the front of everyone's mind.
3. When the day finally arrives, enjoy!
In essence, this is what Beardwatch 08 was.
A few weeks ago when i decided to stop shaving, I thought it would be fun to title my journey towards beard-dom "Beardwatch 08" The final day of May would be the first party (of many) to celebrate my beard.
The pictures you are about to view are not of a complete beard, that isn't what beardwatch is, beardwatch is a celebration of the bearded. Near the end of the season you will see pictures from the final Beardwatch party, which will be called "Beardwatch 08: Mission Accomplished"
Here is Dave, (commissioner of Beards) giving me a ziploc bag of full of the remaining parts of his recently shorn beard.
Here Dave tells the legend of how gods passed down beards to human kind, and how in a beards fullest moment, it flows with milk and honey enough to feed the masses. In the end of the story we learn that the gods passed down the first beard to Dave himself, and that he in fact was the chosen one. He passed that on to me.
