yeah, titles are dumb. why do they put that at the beginning? anyhoo, result of gridley invite? meh. the work project got over early and not many out-of-towners showed up, but there was a ton of volleyball! unfortunately, it was grass courts and i had to wear long pants and it was 90 degrees out. but it was still fun. and i was pleasantly surprised to see kent levy, ben schlipf, and ryan graf there! i hadn't seen them since my last visit to purdue or possibly college weekend. and somehow my feet got really dirty from playing volleyball. i should have had someone take a picture of it; it was really weird. people were calling me names (it's normal), the most popular being "hobbit" and my favorite being "huck finn" (i rolled up my jeans just a little so i wouldn't trip on them). i also met morgan langhofer from phoenix but right now he's volunteer coordinator at gateway woods. i wish i could have come out there this summer, morgan, but this class has me tied down! he's a great guy, i recommend getting to know him.
then on sunday, after they all left, david and i went to hang out with the lovely brad and patti hodel family from roanoke including a meal at everyone's favorite restaurant: chili's. we played a game called "curses!" later, it was full of pirates/mr t/scooby doo/drill sergeant craziness. craziness, heh, that's the only way to describe that game. that's what it is.
i suppose this is lengthy enough and i'm sure you all have other blogs to read so i won't keep you any longer. updates to come later in the week! oh yes, the title. i still don't know what to put for that.

ciao
