Unplugged

I don’t think I realized how wound up I’ve been this semester. The summer was brutal, the fall offered no real break either but in the last 2 months I will have had close to 20 days to unplug. I feel like a new man!!!

I realize most folks don’t have that luxury – this is the first time I’ve ever had enough vacation to do it. Gosh, it feels great.

Evidence?

Exhibit A: I’m not stressed out that I lost my number 1 receiver on my fantasy football team with 2 games left and I’m only one game behind the leader. Normally – that would fry my week. But I’m gellin’ now.

Exhibit B: The Great Bronco Letdown of 2004 does bother me a little but that is understandable – I’ve been a Bronco fan since I was 7 years old – that is in my bloodstream. But I’m not crushed nor do I wish they would decapitate Mike Shanahan. Jake Plummer is another story.

Exhibit C: My kids – not biting their heads off when they climb over seats, forget to say thank you, giggle until 10 at night, or ask for Krispy Kremes every single day for breakfast.

We have one more day here at the beach, then we travel to my Dad’s house in Grove Hill, Al. Try finding that on a map. Here’s a hint – north of Mobile, 90 miles.
