Back home and busy…

I got back in San Francisco from my scuba trip last night around 7PM. The plan was to unpack, go though my email and chill. Instead I was side tracked by friends to attend a Halloween costume party.

Against my better judgment I didn’t take the time to throw a proper costume on. Let’s just say if you are heading to a costume party this is probably not the best choice. For some reason people take offense to the fact they spent 4 months putting together their silly costume and you “couldn’t be bothered”. There sure are a lot of angry people in this world.

Anyway, today is starting to become rather busy. I’m in the mist of unpacking. I need to head over to Sausalito soon to take the rented scuba gear back to the shop, I believe they close early today. And should probably go and buy some food, having only beer and tortilla shells in the refrigerator screams bachelor!

I’ll be heading over to the cafe tonight to go though all of the photos I took and will post a little more about my holiday then. Just so you are aware, I had a good time and found it to be quite relaxing.

Scuba Diving Trip…

I’ll be spending the next 8 days down in Bonaire for a scuba diving trip. I’m all packed and just about to head down to the SFO. I’ll be offline for the whole time trying to break my addiction to the internet. Although, I’m not sure a week is long enough to do that.

I’ll be taking notes and pictures while I’m there, just so I can post my experience when I get back.

Football-o-licious

This past weekend was spent enjoying the American sport of Football!

Friday night we hit up the Rush Henrietta High game at Fisher. Travis, one of many cousins, plays starting right guard on offense. Note: this is one of the positions I use to play for the Greece Arcadia Titans back in the day. Not much glory, but a key position for the running game. RH’s o-line had no problem producing holes you could drive a bus though, they just need to teach the halfback to keep two hands on the ball and wrap it up when getting tackled.

Saturday was the Ithaca – Brockport game. Joe Napoleone, another cousin, plays cornerback for the Bombers. This was my first chance to see him play and I have to say I was amazed at how good he is. Our family is fairly athletic, but Joe’s above and beyond most of us by far. He made some key plays on defense with an interception in the end zone to be one of the major highlights. Ithaca came into Brockports house on homecoming weekend and put on clinic. The Brockport stands were rather empty once the 4th quarter started. NICE!

Then of course Sunday was spent at Ralph Wilson Stadium to see the Bills win by the skin of their teeth over Minnesota. At halftime they inducted indited Andre Reed to the wall of fame, which had most of us pining over the good old days of the early 90′s Superbowl days…

Anyway, as I stated in my last post this is becoming a annual event for the West crew. It’s the 5th year they have done this and it was the first time I was in attendance. You can bet your ass I will be here again next year.

Update: My apologies. Andre Reed was inducted, OJ Simpson was the one who was indited…
