O Hail Ye Mighty State....

Well im finally back in the Lone Star State and loving it all. Matt Pruitt took the trip back down with me cause he had never been to west Texas before. We left at 2:30 on saturday morning out of Little Rock and met up with my brother in law and sister at some old cafe for breakfast. It was good seeing them for a bit cause they leave the country in august. While eating breakfast i had something fly out of nowhere and hit me in the face and then into my plate. I looked up and gave matt an evil look telling him to grow up....but when i looked at him he had the same look i did but he was looking across the room.....i followed his line of vision and was shocked at what i found. It was just some old man laughing with his old little girlfriend. WHAT?!... I didnt know if i was mad or shocked. He then yelled across the cafe that he was sorry and thought i was his grandson. We were also laughing by that time but not cause it was funny, but more cause we were trying to make sense of the situation. The old man came over and asked us where we were from and he happened to have visited his grandson at Harding over the Christmas Break....small world....but then he told us that his girlfirend was the mom of the actual "rookie" that the movie was written about. I might believe this cause the rookie was based out of Reagan County Big Lake but again who knows. Matt and I now have come to the conclusion that this man is a chronic liar and just goes around with that lady and hits people in the face with paper....but you never know. We hit the road again and threw down some more red bulls so we could stay awake. We made it into midland around 230....yeah weird...cause it usually takes me 12.5 hours without stopping...and we made it in 12 with an hr break...maybe we sped?.....We went to baseball game that night cause Midland is awesome and never loses!....but after bragging about them we got there in the 7th inning and the hounds were down 8-3!!...so i felt like an idiot. But as always....we won!....we came back in the 8th and 9th and won the game 9-8 cause the shortstop overthrew first....ok im done talking about the game. Next morning the fam went to church and i had an odd question asked of me...they want me to be a preaching intern? ok what?...now im lost.....i mean i know im loud....but im scared of public speaking....just not my cup of tea....but well see where it goes...i may try....I know this was boring but i must go and register for summer classes....ill write more when i return and throw a good thought of the day in there...ciao!
