July 27, Summer Entry 3

Sorry it has taken me so long to post this. There is a long story which is actually shorter if I tell you in person.
In the world of construction, the contractors broke ground this week on the area out by the(former) softball field at SMS. I didn't think they would go through with it this summer given that the summer is over half over. Mr. Realini's room is behind a fence, I think so not accessible. My room is due to have the floors waxed next week so that will be out. I do not think any other place is available this or next week. I checked the community room at De Anza Park but it would be $240 plus a cleaning deposit. So when can we meet you may ask? The following week, I will be in Santa Rosa and while you are all welcome to come play in my large game room/basement, I do not think any of could actually get there on your own. The main area is big enough for 2 pool tables but I digress. I will be check with Mr. Realini about the following week (the week before school starts) or if he had any luck with Mr. G.
Keep the faith that something will occur.

July 19 Summer Entry 2

Well things came out all right in the end with my procedure. I am certainly learning new vocabulary terms.
On to the events at hand.
Mr. Realini and I would like to host a Pirates game day next week. However, I do not have all of your email addresses and I would be overconfident to think that all of you actually follow this blog. Still, if you are out there, please email me at chris.roberts@sesd.org to say which day of the week, next week, would work best for you. I am looking for Katie, Justin, Gavin, Nathan, David, Alex, Mario, Jeffery, Patrick, Scott, Sam, and Dang for starters. If you know any of these people, contact them for me please. If I did not include your name but you want to play then still please contact me. I plead summer vacation amnesia. Try to contact me this week.

July 8 Summer Entry 1

Hello all. I have discovered I need a chainsaw on a stick, a leaf blower(though given the specs of blowing over 100 mph, I think small woodland creature blower would not be amiss), and a jackhammer (60 lb should be sufficient). I have also discovered that trees do not take kindly to being trimmed and my forehead is proof of their retaliatory abilities. I have also discovered that Target is selling boxes of Pirates cards. $10 for 20 packs (you do the math). The bonus is that they are not just the purple cards (which are in there) but also The Cursed Sea - Fire and Steel and The Cursed Sea - Rise of the Fiends). So if you are looking to add to your collection, now is a great time to buy.
I get to see a Giants game on Sunday, July 10 from one of those boxes. I also get to have a colonoscopy on Friday, a week from today. (the day the last Harry Potter movie comes out.
I am committing to painting American Revolution soldiers and Early WW II airplanes from Flying Tigers period.
Mr. Realini and I will not be available for gaming until after July 17 so keep checking back this next week. My lunch is ready gtg.

We had a great field trip on Saturday to the Military Vehicle Museum in Portola Valley. This is/was (the owner passed away 2 years ago) the largest privately owned armor collection IN THE WORLD. One of the docents referred to it as an armored division. Over 200 vehicles with some one of a kind vehicles. Watch for the trip next year.
