Happy Birthday to me

I've pretty much always felt that my less than effective golf game wasn't suited for an upgrade in clubs that I've always wanted. I got my entire first set for $65 brand new on ebay. Regardless of the fact that my game hasn't improved much...I couldn't hold out any longer, especially when I found a good deal on a set of Nike Slingshot irons. Wrote it off as a birthday expense. Can't wait to try 'em out.

Small shot of the matching bag I also threw in there.



Good times.

I'm a lucky dude.

Well last Monday I left work early feeling an unfamilar pain in my abdomen. After a very long day, and a blessing from the Colonel and Papa Freeman, we headed over to the ER. Turns out I had appendicitis and had to have surgery to remove my appendix. Chrissy stayed by my side the entire time that she could...trying to sleep in uncomfortable chairs, and even sharing my small little hospital bed once I got assigned a room. When I woke up from surgery and returned to my room, there she was. Since then, she's been right here for me to help me with whatever I needed. She has taken very good care of me and I'm very grateful for all she's done. For a brief report on just one of the things she's been doing, check out her latest blog post. It was a pleasant surprise to get a week off from work, just so happens that the doctor advised me to not return to work until June 3rd, which I've had scheduled for vacaish since October...funny how that worked out eh? Good times. (minus the illness and lil surgery in there)

Thank You

O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife.
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!

"irrelevant"

timmy's nonchalant response to mark cuban stating that he hated the spurs. i appreciate his on court response even more...when the mavs went on a run and cut the lead to five about halfway through the fourth, we went to 2-1 on four straight possessions and the big fella produced a bucket every time. he is the franchise.

manu makes me so happy...i'm thrilled that he extended his contract with the spurs. i would have been devastated had he left. he is a fiery competitor, and a crafty lefty--thus holding a very special place in my heart. he is the heart and soul of our team. good times and GO SPURS GO!!!
