Danny just called up, and invited me to go to his school’s volleyball game… leaving about 3ish.. I should be back around 6 tonight. I haven’t been to an event like that for a while…more in it for getting together and gabbing with ol’ Danski on the ride over. He’s going dancing with the Mrs this evening.
