something new (finally)

holy hell it has been a while.
new things in life keeping me busy.

however, glad to say that there are a couple of weddings coming up.
first off, sister and firefighter john marrying on 4/1/06.
i know, april fools, but they are fools in love.

then alejandro and liza on 4/8/06.
i think that we will have to postpone his bachelor party until after the weddings.
to much going on b4 then to plan it right.

reffing ball quite a bit.
i hope to have fall's tuition paid for before 2 long.
also, got my 3rd rating so i can move up and make more cha-ching.
trying to travel to a qualifier, but they all seem to be 4/1 or 4/8.
for some reason, i seem to be busy those days.

been playing on wed at 24 hr, but that may soon stop.
1, the play is okay, better for socializing.
2, the temps are climbing and getting warmer by the day.
that's right, gotta get in the sand.
should be able to try to play a bit more this summer than last.

spring fling will be here april 29-30
spikefest on june 17-18
would like to get to the beach a couple of times
then we have grass here locally

running.
trying to finally meet a couple of goals that i have been missing for 2 yrs.
1 avg 25 miles month.
2 avg 1 mile per day for year.

2 years ago developed compartment syndrome.
that will stop you in your tracks.
then i have this issue with running in the cold.
actually, not an issue, i just won't do it.
so part of my year is taken away except i now am more friendly to treadmills.
last year my cs acted up again when i got into it, and i sustained an ankle injury.
this year i am off to a pretty good start.
except february was a little spacey. only 7.8 miles.
but as of 3/10/06, i am up to 44.8 miles.
today is the 69th day of the year. i am only 25 days behind.
i will get caught up.
