The Pit in the Stomach

After this week of sports I have realized one thing and that is the fact that when one seeks comfort they look to their friends and family when in dire straits. You may think with an opening line like that there is a chance that I lost my house or my job or my lunch from a parasite. However, what I have lost is confidence in, is a Cavaliers championship. During this week I have talked to my brother, my dad, Wise, Morrison,Eiseman, Rob Price, colleagues, students, the wife and even Mr. Cooper the Dog (no not the Hanging with Mr.Cooper I know what you were thinking Morrison). Everyone that I have talked to has the same story about the series with the Magic. I can guarantee you have heard the following words within your conversations: the Browns, Poor Lebron, Choke, and who do we trade for next year. Even writing this is painful but we need a turn of events and I think this blog is going to turn the tides. Let's think about it this way. (#1)- The Cavs are not going to lose 2 out of 3 to the magic at home in the same series. So therefore we are down 2-3. (#2)- It is impossible to play any worse than we did against Orlando in game four. Our other guards cant hit the broadside of a barn, and no way can the Magic and Reefer Smokin Alston hit 17 threes again. Therefore we are tied up 3-3 heading back to Cleveland where we have lost 3 games all year. 

So you may ask me why I am so optimistic. Well lets be honest. (#1) Brent told me I had to be for this post so I am reaching for the stars. (#2)- I talked to Mike Brown on the phone and for a motivational speaker for the rest of the series they have brought in Jason Otter!!! And if that didn't get you in the mood.

Come on Cavs!

 

Sometimes you just wonder?

After watching this video there is nothing else to say at this time.

Two Days Off ????

Have you ever taken a day off or multiple days off and after those days wondered how your time spent was actually considered relaxing. Are those days off non relaxing because there were items that got in your way to make those days actually relaxing? I have had a few days where life felt like a whirlwind and there were joyous times and times where you wondered what in the world was going on. Sometimes I was wishing that I was at Bloomville pool buying a bag of Cheetos for 25 cents and getting kicked out the pool because of hanging on the diving board.

My Tuesday started out with the normal daddy routine of diapers, formula and a ton of playing because the "little one" loves to smile and play with her dad now. Its quite priceless I must say. I can say that I cant wait for my followers on here to experience this. Its better then Wisestock times 1000. (U get the point) After this life took the corkscrew turn. Dad Martin and Madelynn went to meet with the Bank to refinance. That is more painful than a hernia. However, hopefully the outcome is worth it. While little Madelynn sat on the Vice President's of the Banks desk I had two calls come in to make real estate showings and possible contracts for the day. I will spare the details but lets say that this has never happened to me before in 5 years of real estate. To make a long story short Madelynn helped me make two contracts within a 3 hour time span, managed to play in her saucer for 30 minutes straight to help out dad and watched him almost do the Scott Morrison routine. (Next whirlwind, Next paragraph)

While trying to get the now crying girl to sleep I tossed her blanket in the air while watching it come down on a large cup of gatorade. Yes, then this volcanic explosion of grape decided to head towards my IMAC. No damage done but lets just say this involved a blow dryer, paper towels, crying baby and almost a crying dad. So finally, when Natalie got off work I could only muster three words "Please Come Home"

"A Day Off I Think Not" 

Postponement of Wisestock 09

There are words in life that many civilizations fear and in our current day this is the dreaded swine flu. However, the biggest fear that comes to my mind are the developments that have occured after this deadly pandemic. Due to the spreading of this deadly outbreak of the H1N1 Virus the management team of Wisestock 09 has decided to postpone the annual celebration. After the press conference on Sunday evening Director of Operations "Uncle Steve" stated, "It is a sad day when it comes to this but precautions are needed. After several pauses and tears of sadness Uncle Steve again stated, "No potato guns, no wiffle ball games, no grilled food that tastes like lighter fluid, no judy, no judy!" 

Under the guidance of family members Uncle Steve stepped down from the podium and Director of Wiffle Ball Operations and Sports Activities, Scott Morrison commented, 

"Planning for this event has taken months, even years. However, we will move forward. This will allow us as an organization to buy more time to find more effective wiffle balls. He concluded his 4 hour spectacle by saying,  "There is a root cause to this problem and the games will go on...oh yes they will go on." 

As time goes on until the end of this school year there will be many items to look forward to. There may not be a three day event of happiness, joy and laughter on the weekend of June 5th, however, the summer and the cabin did not see the last of us. O no it has not. 

In the mean time I will blame this situation on one person and one person only The head coach of the Chicago Bulls. "Vinny Del Negro" I dont know why, we just need something or someone to blame for this. 

To infinity and beyond,
