It is cloudy and windy. There may be a couple of pellet trucks and the containers from GFE may start today. Michelle is out I think she went to see her son graduate from the delinquent school in Bend. I need to get a letter off to Nolan and go to TriCities and pick up ther Dust Devil tickets. I would like to meet some players but I tend to be too shy as a rule. I probably check the mail before I go - since it doesn't start until six o'clock. I am sort of disappointed that I have not heard from Joel. He is really his own drummer. I guess that Michael doesn't want or need anything so I  have not heard from him. I still have that nagging feeling that within six months we will not be in that close a contact with one another. I really think that he will drift away pretty quickly.

I got my three sets of exercise and walked the loop after work. The wind blew steadily but the clouds came and went. Tom was up for a while and signed the pay checks. He was saying he was at his high school weight and is still pretty much battling his hunger for fatty food. I think the jury is still out whether he can maintain this weight. He probably has gone far enough. I went by the Post Office and mailed the letter off to Nolan. I picked one up from Schimmele. He had written quite a bit of stuff for a blog entry and it looks pretty good. It would appear that he is getting quite a bit of stuff off his chest. I am not sure how much I am going to be able to get on in the next couple of days but I will give it a shot. No word from either Joel or Michael which sort of surprises me. I hope this does not mean that we are going through another round of trouble.

I went up to TriCities to pick up my season tickets to the Dust Devils. I stopped at Subway and got a sandwich and some water. I think my calorie intake is about on schedule. I went to Yokes and picked up some juice and bread. I got there is time to hear most of the team introductions and that was interesting. I sort of felt funny going up and introducing myself because it seemed rather pointless. I watched the tape of the David Letterman Show and that pretty well took care of the evening.

I thought the Most Memorable Positive Moment was the treatment by the young man who got my tickets for the Dust Devils. He really went out of his way to make sure I got them.
