position waiting to be filled

two days off in a row before the six days in a row that i work until next tuesday. tomorrow is the start of pine daze with two shotgun practice rounds and the big opening dinner deal. thursday and friday are the regular rounds of golf with four 9-hole round shotguns each day with the championship shootouts on saturday. it will be an incredibly busy four days with a lot of chaos and much stress and pressure to make sure everything goes perfect. if we can make it through with no major incidents, i will be very happy. pine daze is pretty much the peak of the season for us and if it goes well, we will all be rewarded. we're going to have to work our butts off to "showcase the club and staff." woohoo. can't wait.

yesterday was a day of a lot of golf. paul, scott, and i drove up to play the 18 at evergreen. paul and i were not impressed with the course whatsoever due to our spoiled home at pinehurst. we're just not used to crappy greens, swampy fairways, and (excuse my language) white trash golfers. it took us three and a half hours+ to play an executive course due to all the bad, slow players in front of us. we had a good time, but we went back to pinehurst to play the pflueger because we weren't satisfied. we grabbed carts, found the beer girls and stocked up, and headed out on the nine hole. scott started to freak out a little bit and was getting on my nerves, so i got a little pissed off. i was playing decent, but not great. alyssa came back to work a little early and came out and found us on the course and watched a couple holes, plus making a hole in one on number 7. bob wouldn't let ben come out and play with us, so i was a little sad, but oh well. we finished, but i wanted to play another nine with paul, so we got rid of scott when we were about to go out again when we remembered that we needed to do some actual work before we could go play. we finally went back out, me with a new taylor made R5 driver to try out after some coaching from ben trying to improve my swing. i played a lot better, dropping five strokes from the previous round down to a 45. after that, i drove paul home then headed to the store to get some dinner and ice for the keg. it was a long night last night and i am still trying to forget it. regardless, i've realized that despite all the things brian and i have been through in the last few months, we are still able to be there for each other as he was there for me last night when i needed him. i am now incredibly excited to see him on saturday and am a little disappointed that it will be a short visit, but i will try to make it worth all i can.

today has truly been a day off for me. i woke up after nine and took care of some things i've been needing to get done for a few days. i got some breakfast, watched a couple episodes of that 70's show, and fell asleep on the couch until about 2. i woke up, put a pizza in the oven, and did the dishes. while i was eating, i read about a hundred pages of harry potter and only have another 20 pages to go in book 4, which i plan on finishing after i'm done down here. then i'll get started on the 870 page book 5, which i have less than five days to finish. hmm. we'll see if i can do it. i'm not sure i'll be able to decide to not start the new one until i finish number 5 because i'm really excited for the sixth. i guess i'll just have to finish it before saturday. i don't really have much to do tonight. i may have to go into work to figure out what we're going to do with our 26 extra carts that are supposed to have shown up today. i'm not quite sure who is closing tonight, so i'm somewhat worried about letting them deal with it on their own. although, there is a pro shop staff meeting tonight, so if ben shows up, he should be able to sort it out for them. my schedule is all screwed up so i might have to go in anyway...or i could just wait until i go into work tomorrow at 1. we'll see. either way, i will probably take a shower here pretty soon, read some more, and hang out.
