Journal, July 24th

They took down the possibility of working on Saturday so now there should be no reason for me too.  My brother came up to me at a quarter till 2 (I get off at 2) and asked if I wanted to go golfing after work.  Hells yeah!  Cheri’s out of town today and tomorrow so I had to go to my moms and pick up the kids, come home and change, drop the kids off at my brothers, then go to the course.

We go to a place up in Michigan, it’s only 5 minutes or so from my brothers house.  It’s only 9 holes, which works for us and it’s a decent course.  I did alright, I was very inconsistent and I still shank about 1/5 of my pitching wedge shots because I’m still getting used to the new irons, especially the pitching wedge.  I had a few drives that went right that I had to correct but my iron play was decent, as it usually is.  I did have 1 hole where it was 260 yards to the green and I crushed it to the right of the green.  That might be my longest drive ever.  I have golfed off and on for over 25 years but I’ve only been using an actual driver less than a year.  I used to use a driving iron instead until it broke on the course so I figured I should try a driver again, and surprise, I can actually hit it decent now.  I ended up with a 46 which was good enough to take our 4some.  I won by 4 strokes over my brother who had a pretty good game for himself.  He was chipping well which he never does and putting like a madman.  He usually putts well but he was exceptional today.

Afterwards, I picked up the kids and we headed off to Subway (their choice) for some supper and then home.  I talked to Cheri for a bit on the phone and haven’t really done much since.  Been watching TV but mostly reruns for me so they won’t be listed below.  With Cheri not being here, I can only watch certain shows so we can watch the others together.  A couple of the shows I like that she doesn’t are on tonight so I’ll probably watch those.

I did manage to squeeze out 15 posts onto “My Life”, which is the special project I was telling you about a couple of weeks ago.  I’m now up to April 15th, 2009.  I just started tweeting and I went a little nuts.  Every day of April so far, I’ve posted a minimum of 2 tweets and sometimes as many as 5.  I’ll be glad when I get back to my normal tweeting of hardly ever.  That blog will go a lot quicker.

Here’s a listing of all the new (to us) episodes that we watched tonight.

• Defiance (DVR) – This is one of the shows that I mainly watch just to watch.  It’s an alright show but I’m not really into it to where I must see it.  I have a few shows like that, their ok, but nothing spectacular.
• Dominion (DVR) – This show I’m a little more into, good angels and bad angels fighting for/against humanity.
