Knee Update

Well, as some of you may or may not have known, back in the third week of September I began a Half Marathon training program. I was successfully able to complete the first six weeks before I had some knee trouble. Unfortunately for me it was the same knee that I had surgically repaired last year after tearing my left ACL.

I began having a good amount of swelling and fluid build up on my knee at the surgical incision site. I took last week off of running and visited the doctor on Thursday for a check-up. They could see there was a bit of an infection at the incision site and gave me some antibiotics to combat that and set me up with a follow-up appointment for Monday (yesterday).

Living Up To The Hype

Here are a few of the text’s I received as a result of my Texas beating the Texas Longhorns on Saturday night in Lubbock on national tv.

Maria M. 11:25pm: No way! Were you one of the morons that ran on the field before it was over? You are so lucky that didn’t go badly! (Katie and I made sure there was no time on the clock before we ran on the field.)
Anthony B. 11:25pm: I have no words to describe what just happened with that game. (UT grad, bf from high school)
Anthony B. 11:32pm: Wow…that’s all I have to say, better run the table or else this will be for nothing.

Mosquitos Suck

Mosquitos…both literally and figuratively. There are many things you can count on in life and one of those things is that mosquitos are a pain in the ass, or in my case, a pain in the hand. I got murdered by thousands of these little suckers at Camp Rio Blanco in Crosbyton, TX this weekend while helping out at 39. One of them managed to find a crease inside my palm and it won’t stop itching! Oh well, a small price to pay, right?

We’re Back!

Katie and I

Katie and I have been back from our honeymoon for a whole day now and we are both exhausted. We house hunted with a realtor and saw six houses. We just finished not 20 minutes ago sending her another list of houses to look at tomorrow before we fly back to Lubbock.

We will get more and a daily journal for the honeymoon up as soon as we can, but it may be a few days.

In the mean time check some out at:
