This afternoon I went up to my high school for some Alumni games. Every year after winter finals, they get the alumni to come back and play against the varsity in the winter sports. I showed up for soccer, volleyball and basketball, and ended up playing the full 40 minutes in basketball. Now, I was never a great bball player in high school, they recruited a lot of the talent so I sort of stuck with football and baseball, but this was pretty fun. I was pretty surprised with myself playing full court I managed to score about ¼ of our team’s points, and picked up a bunch of assists and rebounds. I would say I put in a solid triple double. Unfortunately, I was playing against people under the age of 17, so it really isn’t all that impressive. It was a lot of fun to get together with a lot of graduates from past years and play some bball. I was in a lot better shape in high school.
 
OK so I just got back from a little house party at my friend Evan’s house. It was a lot of fun, we did a lot of beer pong and a lot of flip cup. My team crushed in flip cup, but my teams didn’t do so hot in beer pong, I guess I have to blame myself because it is only a 2 person team. We did some cool stuff, we had a 6 cup round which was pretty sweet, but nothing special I guess.
 
ANYWAYS, the biggest part I wanted to talk about was AFTER all the festivities. We were messing around talking about the guys from high school we thought were d-bags and we wanted to fight. My boy Stephen was like ok yea I would knock him out, I was like whatever dude he would mess you up. He was like whatever dude I would mess YOU up. I was like whatever dude I would flying armbar you and mess your arm up.
 
Obviously this escalated into him being like OK dude no chance you could flying arm bar me, I was like ok bitch lets go ill step up. So I stepped up, flying armbarred 4tw. It was pretty fkin hot. I sort of made my shoulder sore a bit, but it was hurt from a couple weeks ago so I figure itll be kinda meh for a while. For those of you who don’t know what it is, its this..
 
 
yea, gg. Anyways I felt cool, so I wanted to share that with everyone. Also, my lost luggage was FOUND. They didn’t have my bags waiting for me in TX after all the airport confusion in LV, so I was pretty happy to arrive home tonight with both of my bags here. I was getting scared a bit as I don’t have too many clothes sitting here in texas, was going to have to start triple dipping into the jeans. Eww
 
CTS and his gf were supposed to come into town tonight, but they had some delays in their flight plans, so are getting here tomorrow morning. I am not sure what we have on the agenda, Haley put some stuff together afaik, some kind of ice bar thing that is made entirely of ice, should be pretty interesting. Also a dinner at del friscos and possibly simply fondue, both of which are my favorite spots to eat with friends. I am looking forward to it. I am NOT on the other hand looking forward to waking up in 5 hours to pick them up from the airport. Hopefully Haley surprises me bright and early with DONUTS! I love donuts.
