Routine

I've been getting some trouble from a certain someone from back home about not putting a new post up this past week.  We have kind of gotten into a routine of getting up for practice in the morning.. Eating lunch.. Taking a nap.. Going to evening practice.. Eating dinner.. Going to bed.  So as far as the blogging world is concerned there isn't much new and extraordinary happening.  

I think I'm still getting used to the idea that this is what I do for a living.  I don't have classes to go to in the mornings or papers to write or presentations to prepare.  I literally eat sleep and play basketball.  And it's incredible.  I almost can't fathom that what I've wanted to do for so long I'm doing right now.  The only thing that would make this better was if I had my family here. As loud and as crazy as my nephews are I wouldn't trade that for the world.  I don't know how anyone close to their family could do this without the technology we have today. I've been able to see and carry on conversations with them like they are in the room.

Practices are still as tough as ever.  My roommate and I seriously can't remember a time where we literally didn't know if our legs would work when we started running down the court.  The good news about that is when it comes time for games to start we will definitely be in good shape.  That is if we can stay away from the ice cream stand that's about 30 feet away from the entrance to the gym.  This ice cream is so good.  Don't ask me what the names of them are.  I do know chocolate ice cream when I see it and it is delicious.  

Oh and today we saw our favorite old "Barack Obama" man in the gym during practice.  Apparently he is our biggest fan.  Today's conversation had Michael Jackson in it.  He seemed to like that judging by his smiling and laughing. 

I'll try to post one of these every week.  So Mom please stop nagging me about writing more blogs , now you know there won't be one every day, haha.  Love you all.  

Until next time, 

Jess
