I have a blog???

So, I forgot I have a blog. j/k.
I guess you all want to hear about my 3-week trip to the Caribbean... But that will have to wait until I actually go there - which is not currently in the works.
Our softball team has 8 wins, and 1 loss. We have a game tomorrow, a game on Thursday, and another game on Sunday, which will be the final game of the regular season. Then there's a tournament that takes place on 4 different days. We are, of course, hoping to win the tournament, like we did in 2003 and 2006 (we didn't field a team in '04 & '05, and came in 2nd in '07).
I haven't gone sailing since that time I took 4 single ladies out into the open sea (some of you know what I'm talking about).
My neck/back have been really tight today (all day) - Grrrrr.
I BBQ'd a couple of burgers today - mmmm. Nice and moist. I'm not a fan of dry burgers.
The person I was hired on to replace (at my new job) - Linn - only has 3 more days until she retires. I'm just about ready. There's been a ton of things to absorb into m' brain.
Has anyone seen Felix? I don't know what happened to him...
I am just kidding, of course. He is safe and sound. He might even have an exploit or two soon.
Last week I cleaned out my gutters - woohoo! - how exciting! :/
I mowed the lawn today.
Also, in this recent era of non-blog-posting, I HAVE actually added a little content to a couple of postings that I had started, and I hope to release those sometime in the next week or so. I haven't spent that much time online lately.
It's past my bedtime! The goal-time is 10pm, but I rarely hit that... which is my own fault. I'll take full responsibility for it.
For those that weren't aware, my maternal grandpa (in Port Angeles) had a health scare recently. It turned out to be "shingles", and he is doing fairly well, despite the accompanying random pain that resurfaces at times. We are hoping that he will be able to attend Jeremy and Amy's wedding on August 2nd in Tacoma.
My high school reunion is happening the weekend of August 8th-9th. Yikes! 10 years...
As I've said to multiple people at multiple times: It's hard to believe 10 years has passed already, and yet it also seems like forever ago - almost like it wasn't even part of the life that I am living now. It will probably seem a little strange to see so many of those people again.
As I'm typing, my laptop is playing music saved on the hard drive. The current song is "Smile at Life Again" by the Elms. I really like this song, as well as several of their songs from the album that this is on (Truth, Soul, Rock & Roll). Ooh - and now Misty Edwards - nice.
Okay, I think I've crammed enough random, catch-up thoughts into one posting...

I will say a prayer for your grandpa. Shingles suck! I have had them twice and its like your skin is on fire and you don't want ANYTHING to touch your skin otherwise the fire is worse. Praying for healing.
PS. The four single girls might want to sail again... I can get the message to them if the captain wants to go out on the water :)

That's a lot of random pieces of information in one blog post... I can't even decide what to comment on.

Thanks for the update and letting your blog readers know that you haven't had to enter a witness protection program. :)
