I haven't really been doing good at this whole blog thing. I mean, it's a little weird to write about yourself on the internet. Right? But, it's also pretty fun so, why not.

The past couple months have been different. Molly and I are trying to figure out how to be buddies and that has its ups and downs for sure. But, she is pretty much the most fantastic person ever and someone I'd do anything for (except not trying to pick fights when I am lit) so we both have faith that we'll sort all this out and be stronger friends because of it. That's all I really feel like saying about that. But, that's the big thing. Outside of that, I think I found Mads a really good home. She's in a barn in Duvall being ridden by a super capable girl who's looking to show her this summer. She hasn't paid for her yet but I'm selling her pretty much for a song so I hope it all works out. What else... I am still coaching at the U. The team is looking good this year. Super coachable and from a wide variety of sports backgrounds. It's awesome to have athletes rather than teaching people to be athletes. I like both, but getting a chance to start from level two, rather than level one, is neat and a good change of pace. As for fire, no word yet from Seattle or Tacoma. I'm at the interview stage for both but neither have a definitely timeline for an academy so it could be a loss on both counts. I missed the application for Bates, which is super lame. And I have heard nothing from National Testing or Public Safety so those were both a waste of time and money I think. It's pretty awesome trying to become a firefighter during a big fat recession. It would be an uphill battle in the best of times but now it's just ridiculous since there are no funds for new firefighters and the old ones are not retiring since their retirement funds are probably jacked at this point. It makes me want to play rugby since it seems like I won't be able to get a job in the near future. I don't want to piss away my rugby-playing years waiting for something that may or may not be a possibility. Coaching and crossfit are okay substitutes in the meantime but it really doesn't get the point across like tackling and rucking. And my shoulder in in fine shape right now. I think I could probably get in some great hits on my left shoulder and be A OK. I'm tempted to play at Maggotfest but Deb had a good point in saying that it's not good rugby and not worth getting hurt for bad rugby. But, right now any rugby sounds like good rugby.

That's all I have right now. I jammed my finger yesterday playing around. I definitely drank too much at the rugby house while playing beer pong. Someone barfed in the basement, which is disgusting. And, what's even more disgusting is that Molly fell in it while diving for a ball. Sick.
