People. Hell is freezing over.

[osulori]

No, KatieTornado I am not trying CF...yet.

It's worse than that.

Last night I told my H I would be willing to...wait for it..............





Wait for it................................................................






Take golf lessons.



It's a long story, but yeah. Before the summer is over, my ass may be learning how to golf. Lord help us all.

I love golf! How many sports can you drink beer and play at the same time?!

[katietornado]

Dude, I really thought that was going to say "pull the goalie." You know I need to live vicariously through my knocked up friends!

I think you guys will have a ton of fun with the golf, if only because you can drink while doing it.

I'll get you CFing yet, especially if I get this job

[shorty20]

I personally have a love hate relationship with golf.

With my job I get to play in a couple of tournaments a year for free and get paid to be outside all day and drink beer, so that's a plus! On the down side, after about 9 holes, I'm spent. 5 hours of golf is just too much for me usually.

[finallykrisb]

You lost me at "golf".

And I was also thinking along the same lines as Katie!

[grk2012]

LOL! I was thinking "marathon?"

I've done this with running several times. I actually feel like the possibilities are endless!

[shelbyann]

But yes, you can drink beer while you golf!

Good point, I just can't drink as much when running, but that may be personal problem

[joenali]

I think learning golf would drive me crazy. It's so slow. And then there's always the possiblity the ball will go nowhere near the hole, again and again, and again. You could be out there all day drunk as shit!!

Haha. Yes, that's probably true.

I saw this as a positive rather than a negative as well! :beer:

That's what I'm hoping you guys...that I end up drunk and not giving a shit. The only times I've gotten suckered into driving a golf cart for my hubby (or once as the beer cart girl at a golf outing) I ended up drunk as hell.

And Katie...no. Not 'til after my sister's wedding in August. So, starting sometime in Sept (depending on when my annual is scheduled, it's due that month anyway) I'll have a whole nother thing to flip out about.

[sadlebred]

I'm sorry. Just kidding! Enjoy them!!

[reginaphalange72]

Golf is awesome. Just make sure to bring drinks. :-)

And bugspray.

Exactly. I'm not good at golf but I love it. My whole family golfs so it's a fun thing we all do together. Walking 18 holes carrying clubs is no joke either.

And the beer.

[breezy8407]

I forgot to mention I was a beer cart girl for 3 summers. Greatest. Job. Ever.

[taratru]

Golf is fucking AWESOME.

[MrsE]

Don't forget the fun times on the golf cart!

[sadlebred]

Drinking and running is called hashing! Drinking and mountain biking is called Wheelhopping (I am a cyclist afterall...)

So I talked to FIL Saturday night. It turns out when J's grandpa passed away last year, he specified in his will that once the rest of the estate was settled (selling the house, settling debts etc) the remaining money be set aside for two things-swim lessons for his current and future great grandkids (he had a near drowning accident as a kid because he didn't know how to swim, so he made sure his kids, grandkids, and now great grandkids all know how to swim) and...wait fot it...golf lessons for any interested family member. Well, anything golf related-clubs, the annual family golf vacation to TN, etc. Their whole family LOVES golf, obviously

He offered to put me in golf lessons a few times when he was alive, but I never got around to taking him up on it. Now, I feel like I owe it to him...plus I know it'd make him smile from the great beyond The place I'd go to (the same one J went to in the past and can now retake lessons for free so we'll prob take lessons together...lord help us all) just started up a session so we'll probably start when the next session does. Oh, dear.
