I just bought ice cream in the Denver Airport with the Kinda Good credit card. YES! The waffle cone was stale.

I sat at the commentary booth for over two hours today and missed my flight because I had to finish covering the “California Bear” vs Invasion match. What is up with those club names? I was sort of expecting aliens or some sort of military to pop out from underneath the SportCourt. Or at least some camouflage or laser guns. Nope. Just a girls’ volleyball team with “SWAT written on the back of their jerseys. Could someone please tell me why?? Anyway, all I wanted to do was see Cal Bear set (Tarrah) Murray every time. It was like she just moved across the street in SpikeTown during the match!!

This whole double-contact thing doesn’t make sense. Everybody double-contacts the ball, it’s legal the first time you do it (each time it comes over the net), but not legal after that, but setters do the double-huck-chuck anyway and only SOMEtimes get called for chow. It’s like refs have this little handset randomizer buzzer in their pocket that buzzes every 3 to 10 minutes and when it does the refs HAVE to call the next hand-set. I am right about this. Check the refs’ pockets!!

Anyway, I’m glad and thankful to everybody at Colorado Crossroads for allowing me to do whatever the heck I wanted to do for two weekends. Except they wouldn’t let me and my crew play in the 14-Gold Division in week 1. Why why why not?

To Kay Rogness, Lisa, Ed, Brandon, Kirk, and that crazy guy from the t-shirt booth who kept telling girls it was my birthday…THANK YOU for a great two weeks!
