"Memory" (CATS)

Oh my god you guys, it has been just too long since I've done a post. It has been the last few weeks of craziness with my work schedule. We are in heavy fundraising time and it has just put me in a huge crunch. But this is the last weekend and we're posting good numbers so that's all good. I also went home to TX last week to celebrate my father's birthday. It was just a nice gathering with family but it was marred by cold winds, wet weather, and delayed flights. Not a happy camper on that issue but we will move on.

Last night we had a return to Friday open play by a member who has since moved to CA and was in town for a short visit. Tracy is an remarkable girl and we are really sad that she's in CA, but she made a good decision and what is best for her career. But we do miss her on the court and also in the afterhours. We enjoyed a rather leisure time at Brandeis last night and then we moved to the place where she and I have a fun time--karaoke. We got a little group together and headed down to our favorite place, Karaoke 17. Much to the chagrin of some of our twentysomething pals, we did a lot of 80s tunes because it just felt right and a little nostalgic. We eventually closed the place down around 4am, just like old times. I'm always happy for the people around me, the friends and players, but I'm also thankful for those of the past who remind us that life goes on and embracing the moment is always right.
