Soccer Shuffle!!!

7-17-15
I have to make it through 6 and a half more hours.

Last night’s Rock around the Block event was surprisingly fun. Our spot for the region was in a great spot and we got lots of foot traffic. I am hopeful that in all of our schmoozing we will have at least brought in a couple of folks. At the very least, our name is out there, which is awesome.

We got to see tons of amazing old cars, too, which was fun for multiple reasons. The boys were impressed with many of the cars and it was cool to see their preferences. As much as I like it when they like the same things as I do, it is fascinating to see them branch out and have their own opinions.
Having an event did mean dinner didn’t happen until after 8 and sleep didn’t take place until 9:30 or so. I am a little sluggish this morning (no cops to wake my ass up) but I am motivated to make it through the day. First off, it is Friday. Second, I don’t have to get up early tomorrow. Third, after work, I get to go out to the camp because I will be meeting my guys for dinner at Big Wok. All around super yays!

The Historical Museum was very interesting. I enjoyed seeing the numerous old photos of things I know. Bobby was super amazed at how the road changed around the Irving Bridge over by Eydie. I would love to look through some of the newspapers from after 1969 since that is where they stopped scanning them in. I am hopeful they will work on those soon, but it takes a lot of time, money and people. I may need to just take a random day and go to the basement of the library and look around.
In the museum was a couple of nods to AYSO since Torrance is the birthplace of AYSO. They had a small record indicating it was a song called the soccer shuffle. I have Tori looking for a copy for me now at the National Office. It will be epic. One more reason to get my record player!

Ok, took a second to go look again for the actual song. Please enjoy the musical stylings:



Ok, now it’s gonna be a great day!
