If you’re expecting a recap of the college basketball season, forget about it. I’m just checking in to say I successfully navigated through torrential rains and horrendous road construction on my journey to San Antonio to attend the men’s NCAA college basketball tournament that begins on Saturday. I feel like the driving conditions should be charged with a flagrant foul or two. Maybe a technical. It was a brutal day of driving.
Before the bad stuff happened, Studly and I met friends from Illinois for a late lunch in Destin, FL, where they’ve been enjoying spring break, then I began my drive westward, and Studly returned home to Doright Manor.
I’m writing from my hotel room somewhere in Mississippi. Dinner was a grilled cheese sandwich from the kids’ menu in the hotel’s restaurant and a Guinness. Is that classy or what?
My daughter is flying in to Houston from Illinois, and then she and I will meet up at my brother’s home. He and his sweet wife have invited us to spend the night with them in Houston before we push on to San Antonio on Saturday morning.
Now I’m just trying to unwind and to keep my verb tenses straight. I wrote this on Thursday night, but won’t publish until Friday, so I kept getting confused. Another flagrant foul. (I always want to call it a fragrant foul. Doesn’t that sound more pleasant? Or maybe contradictory.)
I would apologize for the randomness of this post, but I’m too tired. ‘Night all.
Peace, people.
Still a great post my darling xxxxxxx

and laughing with the
“grilled cheese sandwich from the kids’ menu in the hotel’s restaurant and a Guinness. Is that classy”
first – so they let you order from the kid’s menu?
second – nice pairing

Thanks! I’d had a huge lunch and I wasn’t hungry, and after I perused the menu I knew all I wanted was a grilled cheese and a beer. The waiter said, “excellent choice, madame!” I laughed so hard.

Somehow a Guinness and ordering off the kids menu is means for an arrest. CAREFUL! 😉 – Marty

Random’s fine. Do you have the term professional foul?

Thanks! Professional foul? No. Although, some guys are so good at fouling without being flagged that they could consider it a profession.

We use the term to indicate a deliberate foul that stops a certain goal

That’s pretty much what a flagrant foul denotes in basketball.
