Ryan "Darth" Bader - Eric "Red" Schafer

Two of my favorite fighters went head to head last night with Ryan Bader (Wrestling style) defeating Eric Shafer (Ju Jitsu style).
I met a couple of my friends for breakfast this morning. Three of my single friends had been out all night drinking and dancing and hadn't been to bed yet. Two of my other friends are married and we're enjoying a moment of quiet away from their children. The conversation went back and forth from stories of the all night partying to stories of dealing with wound up children. Suddenly my working all day and crashing on the couch at night waiting for Gareth to call didn't seem quite so bad.

Craig Doyle


I've actually had the pleasure of meeting Craig about four times now. Everytime he was a man of class and a real sweetheart. For all those who don't know who he is, he can best be described as TV Presenter. I guess you could call him our version of Ryan Seacrest.

Working Weekend

Finally getting over the flu, I went back to work on Friday. I'll be working throughout the weekend and since our season is coming to a close, I'll be spending most of next week working from 6am to 8pm. Even though I mentioned I'm getting over the flu, I still have a bit of a cough. When I'm outside, this cold sea air goes right into my lungs and I can feel my chest getting congested again. I have to make sure I stay bundled up and inside out of that air or I have a feeling I'll be getting sick again real fast. One of the guys brewed some coffee and even though I don't usually drink coffee, it smelled so good that I had to have a cup. Glad I did, it feels good to have a hot drink this morning instead of my usual OJ.
