West Cocoa Chat

I know recently I wrote about “labels.” “Labels or “nick-names,” we all have them and we’ve used them. I think they’re easier to use and than be use upon. Yes? I had a new one laid on me yesterday.

We went over to our friend’s home who has been hosting since the summer, an afternoon of fellowship, volleyball, and food. Since losing my weight and getting in to some semblance of “shape,” I’ve enjoyed these get-togethers. In between one of the matches, Steven’s friend, Zack, told me one of his friends saw us running together this past Monday. I remembered someone honking at us and I jokingly said that it must have been someone checking me out.

Well, as it turned out it was. It was one of his friends who when he later saw Zack asked, “Who was that old guy you were running with?” Now as I’ve said in the past, when Steven calls me “Pops,” I kind of like it but “old guy!” How about “mature balding dude” or “really ripped wise one?” What do you think bloggers? Should the “old guy” moniker stick?

BTW – the highlight of the day was Steven coming by after his doubleheader. He went 1 for 3 and 2 for 4 in both games. He said he also hit one out that just went foul. He also told us there is going to be one more cut after Tuesday’s final game. Keep the boy in your prayers.

Have a blessed day.
