The Return of Royalty
Last night I talked to (Sir)Randall on the phone for close to an hour which is probably a recent record in phone call length for me. I filled him in on the latest and greatest in my life as well as made plans for him to come hang this weekend for the Superbowl. Randall has not been to my place in a loooong time. If my research is correct the last visit could span all the way back to December of 2017. There is some backstory connected that I won’t delve into here but needless to say, that is far too long.
It should be a fun weekend. I just bought a set of pickle ball racquets that we could put to use at the brand new courts at the park next door. I assume he will bring his bike for us to get some miles in as well. I can also see some Nintendo Switch competitions and substantial beer drinking going down in addition. The Super Bowl will just be the icing on the cake.
One thing I have done a piss poor job of since moving to Florida is building a large network of real friends. The closest friends I have in Florida live on the other side of the state. I have always been the type that focused most of my time and energy into my partner when I am in a relationship which left sparse resources for much else. It’s one of my many poor decisions I have made in life. I am working towards rectifying it.
