One Busy Week

After a busy week I like to think that, "Oh maybe the next one wont be so busy."   Unfortunately that never seems to be the case...don't get me wrong, I love to be busy, but you need to relax every once in a while. Monday started out tame, but around 8 o'clock  I received a phone call from a very good friend of mine, her dad had passed away the night before.  I know God has perfect timing, but you start to question his timing when things like this happen.  Her dad was very young with all three of his children in college.  He was a great father and husband and will be missed by many.  Since I have a close-nit group of college friends we decided to head to Mission to be with our friend in her time of need.  Tuesday night around 9 p.m. we headed to Mission, it was a long drive, but worth it.  We got in town around 2:00 a.m. and checked into our hotel.  The next morning we headed to the funeral home for the viewing, we spent most of the day with her family, but due to work constraints we had to head back to houston Wednesday night.  We made it back safe and sound around 11:30.  Needless to say the rest of the week was tough to get through, I do not function well on no sleep. 

Since I hadnt seen Chris in a while we had a nice date night on Thursday.  For dinner we walked down to a local pub and had steak and a bake potatoe, for dessert we walked across the street to Russo's New York Pizzaria and had different types of cheesecake.  Since we had eaten all that food, we decided to walk it off by heading over to the Specs in the middle of Midtown.  It was a beautiful evening and the weather was perfect, at Specs we picked up a bottle of wine and head back to the casa to watch a movie.     

Friday was a short, but busy day at work, after work I ran a bunch of errands to get ready for the weekend.  There was another Aggie game so I had to get ready to go to CS.  One of Chris' friends was dunking his Aggie ring that night, so Chris, our friend Caleb and I packed up and head to CS.  Once we got there we met up with Chris' friends for dinner and the ring dunk.  The next morning I was up early for the A&M game, the game was great considering we won 63-7, but a little bit boring.  I know you cant ever satisfy this Ag not happy when we lose and bored if we win by a large margin.  This week we will be playing our final game with our long standing rival the University of Texas.  I am hoping for a good game and win by the Ags, keep your fingers crossed! 

We ended up staying Saturday night in CS to see friends and headed back early Sunday morning to pick up my parents from the airport.  I was very excited to see them, its great having them in town!  I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving, and dont forget to cherish the time you spend with loved ones.  

Until next time...
