Today I didnt have to work until later so I went in early to walk around. I can now say pretty confidently that I have walked all 18 holes of the Augusta National, I may have missed a couple but I will be checking that out to be sure tomorrow. Today was the Par3 contest. After reading about it I am actually kind of bummed that I could not watch it. I still have not seen Tiger or Michelson. The highlight of my day was Fuzzy Zoeller hitting his ball in a bunker and laughing with the crowd. I saw lots of other players too but none that I knew even after their name was said, hey I dont really follow golf, I just like it. My friend is a police officer, he is in charge of guarding the sacred leader board, and he has seen all of the big wigs. Tomorrow my goal is to try and get in to see the official tee off, or is it honorary, either way it is being done by Arnold Palmer. Woods and Michelson don't tee off until after I am at work so maybe someone famous will come by and say hi. Of course for all I know they already have and I am just oblivious. They all look alike, some are cute and flirt with me (which is cool) but most look like or remind me of my cousins and when they flirt with me it is weird. I am focusing on dropping my pseudo southern accent and talking like a Californian but it is hard with the think accents sitting to my left and right. I love seeing all the shirts with locations, so many remind me of home unfortunately people are just showing off where they have been, not where they are from. Some arent though and I tag them right half the time.
I did call one of my cousins last night. I just wanted to call and brag to someone who would get it. thankfully he did :) It was nice to talk to him but I was damned exhausted and pretty self centered I think. I totally forgot to ask him how everyone is doing, if he has seen our other cousins new baby and all that. Yeah I suck. Well it is Masters week in Augusta and they do say that during this week there is no world outside Augusta. I guess I proved that right.
I have no more great insights for today. I am trying to think of some but my brain is refusing to function and just wants to sleep. I have to figure out what I am wearing tomorrow as we are expecting a 20 degree temperature drop.
Unfortunately there will be no more pics as cameras are no longer allowed.
