@j-roadtatts Scrap everything bro. I'm going full Jeff Buckley my friend!

Recently, I was picked up by a men's outdoor travel team. Much of the guys are coaches for the travels teams on the peninsula and they needed another player. They never let on to me the intensity or level of competition. Leading up to the first game, I was under the impression it was a laid back men's league with guys mostly just kicking the ball around. Well, not so much. Most of the teams we are playing are ex-pro's or previous D1 players, and its pretty intense. Some of the teams being together for over 10 years. So I am the total new guy, and for once, not running the team. Many of these guys are still damn quick, effectively taking away a strength of mine. The first few games, I have been back on defense, normally stopper or left back. Well last night, I transitioned up to right mid, and for the first time in a VERY long time, I felt like I found a home on the field in outdoor. Was out there on an island, yet was able to drop accurate crosses into the box, and still cover major ground back on defense. After last night, I guess my trial period is over, and that is where I will be for the future. In a run of 35 straight years of playing this sport, last night was the first time in quite a long time, where I was able to just play and be.

Excellent evening with the granddaughter. Walked to the park and matched her ride for ride on the slides. Along with everything else there. Then she made me paint her nails. She’s got me wrapped at 2 years old.

I’ve been asked at least a couple dozen times in the last month how we disciplined Annikya growing up. The answer. She had to write an essay every time to reflect. Length depended on severity. About the only other thing I ever say is she has always had to make her own choices. The example I give is choosing clothes to wear. She would be given three outfits and had to choose which one. Was unexpected so many people asked me that. From kids she graduated with to other parents.

Ended the day going to a baseball game. Won the championship! Memories for the boys

I know a few good photographers

The advice I gave on the phone that I will give again here for anybody else interested. Most tattoo artist now a days are good at what they do. But specialize in certain styles and have different techniques. The trick is when you see a tattoo that catches your eye ask the person who did the tattoo. So the flipside of that coin and the technique I employ. Since I am generally going to a particular artist I look at their work and pick something I know they will excel at. So if you want me to do the tattoo, I would suggest looking at my portfolio for the reasons stated above. My handle on the Gram is J_roadtatts. I no longer wish to be the smartest person in the room. I will take being the happiest.

Me: "Hello good sir, I would like to buy several of your best marijuana. May I have 2 of your finest!?" Confused weed shop guy: "Two what." Me: "Two orders of your finest goods sir." "GUY: Oh, you're from out of town?" Me: "How did you know?" :swallows bag of gummy bears: "YOLO"

I’d need a clipper job to the body once a month with my woolly genetics... Honestly, half the house would be paid for with in-state tuition. If one of us could become a state resident. Optimistically would become her residence once she is allowed to move out of the dorm. So wouldn’t be throwing the money from her living quarters away. I have spoke strongly in the past about how I feel about you spending time with your daughter. Especially in your situation. That would be great if she came to live with you at some point!
