The weather today is much like my psyche - a bit unstable

It is officially the hot, humid days of summer. The high is in the upper 80's and the humidity is terrible. Good thing we have air conditioning.

Jess had a game last night. They lost 10-1 but it was close until the end. They were down 2-1 until the 6th inning and then the damn broke and the other team rattled off a bunch of runs. Jess played well. 4 times at bat; she was walked twice, got on from a passed third strike and then put down a sacrifice bunt.

Drew has been going to weight lifting every day but his friends have stop going. He is disappointed because he likes it but the other kids have to get a ride or drive their bikes. He just walks over. Yesterday he went and there were just three girls there.

Tonight Jess has a double header in Adel but it is supposed to rain so I guess we will wait and see.

Ok more from my California trip:

Day 3:
So it was Tuesday morning and we got up like usual and attended class. Once again a big breakfast and big lunch. At this point the food is getting less desireable so I think we are eating less but it is still a lot.

After class we all meet back at the rooms. Did I mention our rooms were connected so we had a door in between so we could go back and forth without going into the hall. The only time the doors were shut was at night and when Nancy was taking her #2. (Just kidding Nancy.)

Anyway, we wanted to go out to eat but didn't want anything too heavy. Nancy thought a simple cheeseburger sounded good so off we went. Once again, I got lost and ended up on the 5. I eventually found a place that had a sign that read "Greatest Cheesburgers in America". We stop and go inside. Nancy and Joyce look at eachother and say "I don't think so". Back to the car and off we go again.

We eventually end up at a village inn. I had a fish sandwich. It was very good. Between getting lost and trying to find a good place to eat, we are gone an hour and a half. We get back to the rooms and then head out to downtown Disney for more music and people watching. At this point Nancy tells me we need to be doing more sight seeing because we have been there three days and haven't really done anything.

We make plans to go to the beach on Wednesday night, Disneyland on Thursday and then drive the coast on Friday and check out as many beaches as we can. Friday is a day we stayed extra. There are no classes, we have the whole day to do what we want.

During this whole process I am dilligently keeping reciepts. We are using the school credit card for our meal and the business office is very rigid when it comes to reciepts. They need to be detailed and specifically for necessary expenses.

Did I mention, Joyce had bought a box of wine. We had a glass or two each night at the room. My room was kind of the hangout spot. I would sit in one bed, Nancy would sit in the other and Joyce would take the chair. We would drink wine, chat, watch a bit of TV and just hang out. It was actually a relaxing way to end the day.

More tomorrow.
