Biggest Strikeout Ever
Biggest Strikeout Ever T Marin and I had decided to go to the cabin for the parents were staying home and we felt we needed a few nights of peace and relaxation. Now if you’ve been reading any of my posts neither of us did peace or relaxation very well, it had been snowing in Big Bear for the last week or so and the drive would be long and arduous.

Check Please!
Emily wasn’t the seductive beauty that she always saw in her sisters and often comparted herself too. She had more natural beauty, at least that’s how her mom described it. Emily was tall but not too tall, she was thin but not too thin, she was outgoing but not obnoxious. She was pretty but not beautiful… at least that’s how she would describe it. She had brown hair, but she always wanted blonde hair. She bought sexy business clothes but never wore them. She owned and collected a few dozen pair of Prada and Monolo Blahnik heels. Sadly, the only time they touched her feet was right before she set them on a shelf, for a life of forever loneliness of shoes perched in her closet from that point on.

Gridiron Greatness
It is only with great difficulty that one can look all pumped up to his peers while still successfully hiding from the coaches; this was the condition I found myself in on the sidelines of the Cheyenne East practice field. I was a junior, but I was playing on the Laramie High School sophomore football team because it was my first year. It was not that I was scared to take a hit or give one. Far from it, I relished the impact of colliding helmets; it was missing a block or setting a screen for a pass when I should have been pulling for a run that kept me voluntarily benched.

Family
I was driving as a job, actually loved this experience because I met so many different variations of people. One night I picked up this man, as I was picking him up I said to him, "You can ride up in the front if you would like. He replied, "Yes I would like that." I had picked up so many men, not a thought crossed my mind about it. As we were chatting on this 15-minute drive to his destination, I was amazed at how much chemistry we had. He had such a great sense of humor, I had not laughed with happiness in so long. It felt great. As I looked at the GPS the ride was coming to an end, I didn't want it to end but I was not brave enough to say anything either. We continued laughing as I was pulling up to his house my mind was racing through ideas to see him again. I had it, once we said our goodbyes before I ended the Uber. I sent a message saying "Phone number"?Hoping he got it. I went home and told my children that I had met an amazing man tonight that caught my attention. I told them "This is my guy". He is who I want. I had an incredible feeling about this. I wait for hours for a phone call. But received nothing that night. The next morning I will never forget 8 a.m. The phone was ringing, I never answered my phone in the morning or when I was half asleep. I answered It was him I was so excited. I woke my children up to tell them he called. I had a date and this felt so incredible, this was my guy, I never have felt this way. They say when you know; you just know. Two months into this relationship we were sitting outside on the front porch. He told me many of the obstacles that were in front of him. I took a deep breath wondering if I was strong enough for those obstacles. We went to bed that night and that was all I could think about. Can I handle this? I decided yes, I cared for him as I have never cared for anyone before. We had challenges for the next year, but I always said "We get the bad out of the way and the rest would be a breeze" Little did I know the following year was going to be my hardest, As I felt everything was finally coming together when we were sitting in the bedroom one night after all the obstacles we made it through, he was my best friend, love, my hope, and my happiness. He said to me "I need to go and I need to be by myself for a while, My own place". accepted all of these challenges, and I still stand beside him and respect his choice. I have no regrets. I hope he sees all of the things I have accepted and how much I love him. He gave not only me but my children the best two years we could ask for, I wait for this to be another obstacle to overcome. As we all sit here patiently and wait for him to come back home. Through all of these drawbacks and problems, I still see how much he has helped me and my family progress and we see how important he is and how he has helped us all become better people. We want him to overcome this obstacle and so we can be a family and finally see how much we have impacted each other's lives and how important one another is to each other. Throughout all of these drawbacks, I see how important he is to us and how he has shaped our family into the people we are today. How that has made us better people and in the end, I have no regrets. We want him to come back after this and finish what we started together.

Jilted
I’m not typically the type of person that has regrets in life, or made mistakes that stayed mistakes. Every little thing we do in life has an outcome that can either make us, break us, or bring about a change in us that can set or change the path of our futures forever.

A Total Mess
I only think about this incident when my siblings and I get together at my parent's house and talk about old times. And, don't let us get a few drinks in us; then it's an evening of laughs, with one of us getting more laughs than the next and him or her becoming the honorary sibling for the night. We love roasting each other from time to time, but when it's my turn, it always balls down to this one embarrassing moment in my life. Now, I was just a child, but imagine how you would feel if your siblings kept bringing up the same old story over and over again, especially around friends and family members. And I swear they add more to the story each time they tell it. So, here it is in my words and how I remember it since it happened to me.

Manifest! Manifest! Manifest!
I worked nights, I slept late. It was summertime in Florida and it must have been the heat that woke me up. I was slippery with sweat. My window AC unit was dead. It didn’t matter. I just had the most electric connection with a woman that I had never even met. I’m not talking about sexting with someone on Tinder. This was literally the girl of my dreams.

A Night on Newport
Vinnie’s on 34th It was July 4th in Newport Beach, what possibly could go awry? Vince was living on 34th street on the bottom apartment of a duplex. He had purchased a keg and invited mostly girls. Matt and I were down early helping Vinnie get ready and he tapped the keg about noon. I swore I wouldn’t have a beer before five, but I lied to myself.
