One time Bill and I just were getting drunk at my old house in Waterford and he decides he wanted to "sleep/drunk walk" into the bathroom and just pass out on the floor in there.

Only to find my dad getting ready in the morning.  I felt embarrassed for him, but he is the funny dude that walsed in there.

In my 2nd season of division one Cross Country running at Oakland University, coach Paul Rice took us to a camp for a hard week of training.

Here are some of the things I remember from that week of pain:

• We had a talent contest where everyone had to display a talent
• I decided that I wanted to use my DJing skills and played a famous piano concerto behind a piano as I goofed off like I was playing it for real
• I cant remember everyones skills, but we started indoors and ended up taking it outside where people got up on this stage.  Billy any help here?
• When we first got there we did a long run into the woods and overlooking this bluff was one of the most beautiful swamps/lakes I have ever seen in my life.  I was in awe.
• We did a cool workout where we all raced as a team kind of like the great lakes relay
• Some people went skinny dipping I think.  Not sure
• I was DJ Willuz all week, cause I brought my portable MP3 player and some computer speakers that I returned at Meijers later.
• Kevin D. and I had lots of talks about how the team was always dicks to him.  He and I always confided in each other because other people werent always the nicest people to both of us.  Especially to him.
• On the last day we did a hill workout running up and down the sand dunes.  It was soo difficult and challenging.  And in the end people jumped into the lake.  (Some people jumped in completely naked too)
  

Next to band camp, this was the most fun I had in a camp in such a long time.  I got into ultimate shape and it was the best thing for that season because I ran a 27:50 8K!

One day a rock show came to our school. I was really into rocks at the time. I liked the ones with crystals in them and stuff. I really didn't learn anything though because I couldn't tell you the name of a single rock. At any rate, the rocks were on tables and you walked around and looked at them. Each rock had a sticker on it with a number so you could identify what it was. The show was in the gymnasium.

Well, for some reason I got the idea in my head that I wanted to steal a rock. I saw a nice, shiny small one and no one was looking so I pocketed it. At first I thought I was pretty clever and I went home and admired my newly acquired treasure. Eventually though guilt got the best of me. I started fearing that the people who put on the rock show would notice that a rock was missing and they would come back to the school and look for it. I feared that they might go to the students' homes and search for the rock. So I went in my backyard with the rock in hand and . . . Read More..

Today I attended another funeral. This time my brothers wife.My brother Tom has been dead now for 22 years. But his wife Judy lived long after him. She was ill for quite awhile and finally gave up the fight. My favorite nephews are her sons and it hurt to see their loss.I was somewhat suprised to find out Judy's age. She was only 8 years older then me. It is funny how we look at others in the same manner that we saw them as when we were children.I would have guessed her as much older.I think the point I'm trying too make is . . . Read More..
