IS SUMMER HERE YET??

WOW, there is soooooooo much going on right now:

Soccer - new team (St. Paul Celtics) and we're off to a killing. First two games we put in 16 goals and gave up ZERO. We have a rock solid team that's very young and very good. This summer is going to be FUN.

Work - The day has finally arrived where I finally feel like I'm in the zone. I can cruise through my integrations with ease and I'm asking few if any questions of the guys around me, which I feel like is a good sign. I feel like I actually KNOW enough to do everything and do it quickly and efficiently.

Home Life - It's like anything. Good days and manageble days. Its hard for me to say there's bad days since I cherish so much where I am in life.

Everything Else - Cody wants to come for four weeks and wants to stay home all day. I'm still going back and forth on ironing out all the details for him and what will be expected of him. I guess I wasn't expecting him to be here for the full four weeks. I know we're going to the Wisconsin Dells and a co-worker has already given me a good tip on the place he usually stays which he like a lot. Summer's coming fast so we gotta get moving on this one.

Softball - I think it was a mistake to sign up for Softball with my neighbor. I'm playing, but often feel like I could be doing something else. Its my own fault for telling him last summer I'd play. I've done pretty well even though our team is still 0-2. I try not take it too serious, its only for fun - right?

Two other things:

I was thinkinig of my friend D the other week. Its painful to read her emails since I know she's having a rough go of it right now. Its been a brutal few years. She's getting older, wants to desperately have kids and her medical issues are preventing her from really living life like she would.

It makes me wonder how ambitious I should be when I compare her life to mine. I feel her suffering in my soul. Its not something I can easily shrug off like I do most things. Then I think I really do have life by the ass, and every night I go to bed, I pray for her to get better and ask God to be her sheppard and watch over her. I still feel her spirit all the time. She says the D I knew so many years is gone, but I know someday soon she'll take flight like she's always meant to. It gives me goosebumps to think of her and the energy we share since we're soul mates. As much as I've had to let go of the notion of us being together, I know she's always with me.

Whoah, so what else is going on? I went to the Minnebar conference for developers and got some really good information about developer tools and how to handle my freelance work. I was sad I ahd to be abck at 1:30 and missed a lot more of the good stuff.

I joined Twitter and am having fun with that so far.

Oh well, its 4pm and time for me to kill the power and head home. I might be on later to try and finish off this post or add another shorter post with some other interesting stuff.

Till then sportsfans!!
