    Default Tennis Match Today

    Played tennis today. I played a great game, but in doubles, your partner is half of it.
    I hate my partner.
    Close match thrown away...
    When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
    When sorrows like sea billows roll;
    Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
    It is well, it is well, with my soul.

    Well, had a great Sunday afternoon. Got together with a few friends on a patio and enjoyed a very nice selection of Scotch, Port and cigars.

    Drank a bunch of Scotch, tried my first Port and loved it, as well as smoked a Cohiba Lancero (2001) and Partagas PCE (2005).

    It was a helluva time, but this morning I wasn't feeling all that hot.

    Good Late/Lazy Sunday morning All,
    I'm sitting on the front porch, piggy-backing on a neighbor's wireless connection, smoking a nice mellow Gispert maduro robusto and watching the 30-40 mph winds wreak havoc on the elms. Its about 68 f and really pleasant on the porch, which faces straight North so with the SW winds I get to watch the action and still enjoy the aroma of my cigar smoke.

    Its kinda nice to just sit here, read some posts, and enjoy the morning. I don't usually post on the weekends...I get enough of computers and the web at work all week. But today, it just felt right, almost like a needed break from the routine of breaking the routine...if that makes any sense. Sometimes the rituals I seem to have developed surrounding my relaxing/decompressing time are done by rote.....which doesn't make much sense if its supposed to be a change.....

    Had a great time last weekend in KC, though a normally 2 1/2 hour drive took us 6 hrs due to a freak snow/ice/freezing rain storm we encountered on the way. Traffic on the turnpike was moving at about 30-40 mph......but we handled it just fine, and enjoyed the hot-tub at the hotel even that much more!!

    Sorry for the long post. I hope everyone is having a great day today.

    Had my last exam yesterday! Plus the raptors won last night, so all in all it was a good day. I almost have a degree..whatever that'll be worth... I just need to do one more course in the summer. But damn its good to be done exams and just be able to do nothing all day but smoke cigars and drink.

    Well today us Seniors had no school. The juniors were taking the ACT and the other underclassmen were taking other, more useless tests. The administration lets us be excused from school to "job shadow" or college visits, or compass test, or register for classes. Basically they want us out of the way.

    So I got to sleep in, then I worked for a few hours, and went and registered for my fall classes. Prom is this weekend and I'll be glad when its over. I'm going with the girl, but its so much work and stuff.

    Sipping on some morning coffee and puffing a MC #5. Break time. This is The Doors show weekend for my son with an awesome performance last night. Today we have another dress rehearsal, sound check and concert. Tonight, we will tear down equipment and transport it back to the school and celebrate another successful season. This stuff keeps us all busy but it is well worth it. I just changed my avatar with a pic from last night's concert. He got some pretty good songs this time and sounds great-

    Soft Parade- Lead Guitar
    Bellowing- Vocals
    Break on Through- Vocals and Lead guitar
    Crystal Ship- Rythym Guitar
    Who do you Love?- Slide/Lead guitar
    Five to One- Lead Guitar

    If only they had cool shit like this when I was a kid.
    Mama said a lot of things and be thankful was the one she never minded saying twice

    I drove down to New Jersey friday with my brother, last minute trip, to watch the Raptors play the Nets. Great game, but the raps lost We spent saturday in Manhatten. Never been to NY, or NJ, before, it was really nice. Walked around times square and then to central park. I didn't have time to check where any B&Ms were, but I found one, De La Concha. I didn't have much to spend but I grabbed a CAO mx2, Ashton aged maduro, a cubita and an AVO. I smoked the ashton in central park and my brother smoked a CAO maduro. Good times, I'd definately like to visit NY again. But right now I need to find a job!
