Beat today as I played 27 holes yesterday. 55 on the first 9. 51 on the second. The last 9 was evidently just for the walk as I blew up. But I'm coming along. Not much else happening. Went to see the chiropractor about some referred pain in my leg and it seemed to help but then cam back. Probably go again today.

Finally got Reed to write something for the blog. "For the blog you can stay I'm enjoying my workouts for basketball and my teammates are a great group of guys. And also that my classes are going well. I'm enjoying being on my own too." and here's his school picture.

Reed told me his ankle was better and that he was back working out with the team so I went to see him play today with the other EMU team members in pickup basketball. He looked fine. Seemed stronger and didn't get winded as easily. I've been playing golf every day. I'm sucking but I'm trying to get into shape.

So a week has gone by and I've still no job but I don't care as I'm getting into golf. Found a nice city course only 6 minutes from home and have been playing almost every day. Got my score down below 60 on a good day and played my first 18 yesterday with a tired body and backache today. Reed, on the other hand, is not doing so well as Monday he sprained his ankle again. Saw him Tuesday and he wasn't on crutches but hobbling around. Caught up with him on his way over to his clerical work study job. He was disappointed that the injury had happened as he was feeling he was getting into shape but he probably won't lose much. Also feeling a little homesick but that's to be expected. Finally, here's a nice pic of my golf course.

Went and shot 9 holes of golf today at the Pack Saddle Golf Club. Beautiful and challenging course. Afterward I found Reed over at the Men's Volleyball Team's scrimmage. We had a good talk and he show me a picture someone had found of his doppelganger. The guy plays for the Serbian National team. I forget what his name is.

It's been a week since my last post so I better report in. Had an interview for a job at the resort east of here on Sunday (yeah they were working on Sunday). Interview seemed to go well. Liked the people and that place is attractive but haven't heard anything. And then Wednesday the City School system had me come in to process to substitute though it will be awhile before I get cleared for that. In between I've been watching old Maverick episodes. Reed did email me last night about their conditioning workouts "Our workouts are pretty good. The one we had on Tuesday kicked my butt. I ended up throwing up all my lunch and dinner." so it sounds like he's being taken care of. I am starting to get into golf. Bought a set of clubs yesterday and went out to shoot some balls. 2 drivers, an iron, a wedge and a putter along with a bag and balls--just under $15 at the Gift and Thrift. All the clubs seemed to work. Oh and went back to the Civil War Dance group last night so Reed and I both worked out but I was less acquainted with my dinner.
