Exchanged

Eli 17.8 has never gone on a trip at spring break.

Every year, he had hockey in some form. Tryouts, regionals, camps. This year, though, since he's not playing juniors next year--Cancun.

I had to stay here (George), but Gloria and Eli left the morning after Application Apocalypse 2019. It's turned out really well for him, to get away and get some distance.

He's been playing golf almost every day (still in tryouts for the golf team, which end next week), and we exchanged these texts today.

Hey, how was golf?

Horrendous. The person I got stuck playing with shot a 94 for 9 holes, it took us 2 1/2 hours, and a literal monkey ran off the course with my 56 wedge, couldn't have really been any worse.


Holy crap. A monkey?

An actual monkey. Left it on the other side of the green after a chip and he came and just ran off with it. I have no idea if I'll ever see it again. 

He probably has a den where he has a hundred wedges and putters. It's Aztec treasure in monkey form.

Interesting way to start the day.

Not for the monkey. Just another day on the job.

You're so right. I also saw a crocodile. I went in the opposite direction. 

Oh, those are really nasty. Definitely a no selfies policy there. He wasn't looking for wedges.

He probably guards the monkey's stash.

Lots of bickering to set that up initially.

Took a couple of monkeys to get him to accept the situation. 

Won't last for long. That's basically going to turn into a Brexit.
