a dream realized

well shit, i wrote a great post and when i went to publish it, the internet wasnt connected and it wasnt saved and now its gone, and so is the motivation to rewrite everything, so here is the quick recap:

last night we went to Kampan, it was fun and i came home when the sun was coming up

today was a holiday, no work

tomorrow we go to Berlin to play the Sluggers and we are going to stay there saturday night and go out on the town. the 2nd man's team plays on sunday in Berlin too. Will be a good time for sure. i will come back with good stories im sure

later in the summer, we are going to Thies's lake house in Sweden. Fishing, drinking, and Fun are the only things on the docket for the 5 day trip...clothing is optional, from pictures that i saw from last years trip, the birthday suit was the uniform of choice. I cant wait to catch some Pike.

Earlier, as i was eating ice cream, basking in the sun, and enjoying this great 75 degree german weather, i got to thinking about what i would be doing if i was in America at this very moment. I can only imagine that i would have gotten a job in chicago and not still living at home painting. so at 11 am on a friday i figured that i would be sitting in an office, wearing a tie, looking at my Blackberry awating group emails and counting down the hours until 5 oclock and the start of the weekend. and while that sounds like fun and all, i am very happy that i was barefoot, wearing gym shorts and a t-shirt (my work suit), looking at my prepaid Nokia, counting down the hours until i get to play the great game of baseball once again.

I truely am living the Dream and i couldnt be happier with everything right now.

with that said, im going to round out the night with a bottle of water (trust me i need it) and a movie.

A-Ron

that pretty much sums up everything i wrote in the original post.
