I Shot 49 Today

And considering I hadn't played real golf in a few months, that actually isn't bad. I even had a birdie on the second hole. AND I got to wear my totally new and snazzy Illini golf outfit (matching hat and dry-fit polo shirt - totally hot.) I got to play with this cool old Lithuanian couple. The wife didn't talk much, but the husband talked my ear off with questions about archaeology and human origins and my future plans. Nice guy. That's the best part about playing golf on a public course at 1:00PM on a weekday; only the old retired people are out, so you get paired with them. They're always nice, and you know you're going to play better than they will so it boosts your ego. Maybe I'll go again tomorrow.
