I just realized that more than half of my friends on Facebook are people that I’ve never met. I guess it’s good to have a lot of friends. But are they really friends? Will I ever get to meet all these people?

The best thing about September is that we finally get back to the football games and hockey games. I love Monday night football and I always find a way to get to a dozen or so hockey games. These games on my big HDTV flat screen on the weekends are what make working all week worthwhile.

This weekend is always a sad one for me. This is the end of the summer season. Not officially, but for all intents and purposes, summer is over. The beaches will be packed this weekend and deserted next weekend. Everyone will be back in school. The weather will slowly turn cooler. It’s the end of the long lazy days at the lake or at the shore.

My bud, Glen, finally got hold of a rental truck along with getting Saturday off from work, so he’s moving. I had promised to help. Who knows, I might need Glen’s help moving my own stuff one of these days.

I can’t believe how many boxes of stuff you have to carry down three flights of stairs to get someone moved out of their apartment. I’m healthy and active, but even my legs hurt after all those trips up and down those stairs.

My friend, Glen, wanted to get a U-Haul truck and move his stuff over to his girlfriends house. Hey, I think it is cool that the two of them are getting so well and want to take this next big step of living together. Congrats, you guys!

The problem is that there are no trucks available! This is evidently the big week that everyone goes back to college and all the trucks are rented out to college bound kids. He called all over town and no go. So I guess they have to wait a bit for their big move.
