Long Birthday Weekend

It was a nice, long, relaxing birthday weekend with bouts of beer involved.  As far as birthday’s could go it was tame but it was good in that monotony.  Basically it was a weekend of poker, which I sucked out another win, a few beers out with friends, and a round of golf.  The golf ended up being way more expensive than we expected due to the course moving the twilight rates later, luckily the poker winnings which would’ve covered the week’s expenses was just enough to cover the round.  An upside was I shaved 13 strokes off the last time I played.  While that sounds good Im still three strokes over 100 so its not too impressive.  Golf can be a fun or frustrating game depending on how serious you wanna take it.  It would’ve been better to have walked the course but with the heat I cant complain about having the cart.

Nothing compares to last years birthday present of the Carolina Hurricanes bringing home the Stanley Cup four days before the 23rd though.  After going to every game of every series, except Game 2 against Montreal, it was a good month.  I have no worries they’ll pull it out for me again sometime soon since they’re currently averaging a trip to the finals every 5 years.

This week will be back to training mode, starting with a four mile run and then soccer tonight.  Usually I don’t run on soccer days but Zack was telling me that he’s been doing it and it doesn’t wear him out to bad.  So I’ll try it out and see how it goes, since we’ve got subs again finally I can get off the field if I get too tired.
