I could write a blog. I have thoughts.

Life at the library, adventures with friends and other hysterics...

Bob of Sponge, won't you come? won't you come?

Things I took away from today's golf tournament:

-Pocket socks
-2G orange shirts for the second year
-Spongebob golfballs
-Crazy cart driving
-Jim angrily swinging his club at anything in sight
-Earthquake golfcarts
-Belch justice
-Pastor hitting balls into the cornfield out of frustration
-Black Cherry Mike's
-Jansen fore calls
-Sand people sound effects
-Losing every single one of those Bob of Sponge golfballs
-Yellow PING hat
-Endless explanations of what 2G stands for
-and the nicknames: "Beardy & Bride", "Mr. & Mrs. Slow" and "the Putz"

There's more but I'll spare you.

So yes, we hit up the annual "Tee it up for Tuition" fundraiser for my old high school with our usual 2G team aka Pastor - Blackstone - Jim O - Dash Riprock - Nic - Homey G Wigger - and me - Choot 'em Lizbet. 

For some reason we always get put behind slow people so it took us longer than we'd like to finish, but we pulled it off with a score of 74. Not bad for us non-professionals.

While we did have a lot of fun and laughed often, the majority of our time was spent waiting on the group ahead of us which brought a lot of frustration into our game. To be fair we did only almost hit them once. And it wasn't even on purpose so I'm calling it a victory.

The former librarian at the high school and the new(ish) dorm mom made the rounds in their golfcart taking pictures and jokingly referred to us as prisoners cause we were wearing our bright orange shirts. She said they better hurry up cause we have curfew and if we don't make it in our ankle bracelets were gonna go crazy.

That was at hole like 6 - we started at 2 - and we were still out there like 4 hours later.

While last year we were a little more goofy in our golfing approach - go here - Our drinking team has a golfing problem. - this year we'd actually been practicing so we had honed our skills.

Though we couldn't make a long put to save our lives.

But I didn't get thrown out of the cart like last year.

And the year before that.

Even with the frustration and the waiting it was still a blast and I look forward to next year's with new t-shirts to go with it.

We're thinking lime green.

Thoughts?

Tomorrow is church then more post-camp processing. Hoping to get it all done in one afternoon and then be good until like April of 2013, huzzah!

But we'll see about that.

Sleep first, then tomorrow so I'm off for the night.

Have a good one.
