I know I already posted one message but an experience occurred last night that I had to share. It woke me up this morning, so here I am typing when I should be sleeping.

Brandon's basketball team played at Alta Vista last night and lost their first game of the season :-(
For the record, the officiating lost Brandon that game...anyhow! Everyone attended the big match up - Carol, Kirk, Kim, Shannon, Corky, Jeremy, Brenda, Colby, Ashley, Elwood, Barbara, Tiffany and of course Misty...
