So, unlike last week, there were a plethera of people at pool tonight. Seth was there when I got there (which is pretty amazing, cause I'm usually the first one there) and a little bit later Renee, Jerry and two of Renee's friends showed up, followed by Jen. It was a lot of fun...even though I lost to Seth...A lot. Jen looked a lot less sun burned then she did on saturday....I find that pretty amazing...me sunburns seem to last forever....

Yesterday my parents called...after I had called earlier in the day to wish my Dad a happy father's day. I know it's going to sound pathetic, but the only reason why I remembered that it was father's day at all was because one of the cars on Nascar's race yesterday that had an engine blow, had a happy fathers day logo on it. Talking with my parents we talked about how they had worried about decisions that I had made in the past and how that it all is turning out pretty well. Then I made a joke about how I need to do something crazy...

We also talked about my older brother and his wife and their expected child. It seems really scary to be in a situation like they are in (basically knowing they are going to loose the child) and I don't know if I could handle that.

Mom also brought up how social I was as a kid...and I remember being social...I remember introducing and making friends easily (ie next camp over at yellowstone). It really makes me wonder what happened. Why do I have such a hard time now...and why does meeting new people or talking about things where I'm not sure how other people are going to react or the like. What changed?

This past weekend I decided to do something about my sleep apnia and snoring. I was reading articles about how one could actually die from all this stuff and it made me think about how I should do something about it. Not that I'm particularly worried, considering that I've probably been living with it for years, but I think that the snoring (as loud as it can be) has got to go. Not only for myself but for the people around me.

So today I think I decided who a family partice doc will be and I've got lines on good docs in des moines that are good at dealing with sleep apnia and snoring.

Today I went to the dentist and I again had no cavities...in fact other then the first time when I had a whole crapload of work done (including all four wisdom teeth removed), I haven't had a cavity since.
