The day has finally come and gone. American culture places a lot of emphasis on this particular birthday. Now I can buy bb’s and spray paint. I can also vote, for whatever good that will do.
Actually, this was the most laid back birthday I have ever had. I didn’t really do much. In the morning Mom and I went to apply for a passport. at 4pm I left for the coffee shop. I ended up running into Ernie and talked a little while. He is a hoot. At 5 I had an hour-long violin lesson. At 7 I arrived at the Woodwards for Adam’s going away party.
As always, we ended up playing ultimate frisbee. The game was a good one. We stopped at 4-4 to go eat. Later we continued, but with mixed up teams. My team was down 6-2. We made a comeback and tied the game at 6-6. Then 7-7. Finally the other team scored the last point and one 8-7.
I made one dive that was almost awesome. It would have been if I had caught the frisbee, but I missed it. Kaylin had the frisbee, and I called “endzone” and she threw it. She threw it hard. It went way back into the endzone and just a little too far for me. But it was fun.
Today we resume the ultimate. This time we will be playing at McIntosh with my frisbee. Joe Echols may even show up. If he does, perhaps even some more Echols will, such as John and Mary.
