Message: <blockquote data-quote="DallasFanForever" data-source="post: 373450" data-attributes="member: 13221">I’m quite often amazed at this myself. Life can be very symmetrical at times. Right now I’m watching my favorite nephew grow up and it’s quite alarming how much he is like I was at his age. Maybe that’s good in a way though cause it means he can never fool me if he tries. I’m a little tired of “moving forward” also. I don’t mind “moving on” or “in the future” though. However “in the future” can be a little scary for me because it usually means I’ve done something wrong. I struggle with certain words no longer being allowed. I mean I never want to offend anyone so I get it, but it does get a little confusing sometimes. Like you I enjoy autobiographies and true crimes. Those are at the top of my list I’d say. I also enjoy reading about history. They’re all sports books LOL!! Can you believe that? One is called The Love of Baseball, which is odd because I think I’m the only person that still loves it sometimes. It was a gift and I’ve never read it yet. Next to that is a baseball statistics book. Do you see a trend here? Also a gift and unread so far. The other two are books on American Football, definitely my second favorite sport. One of them I think I bought myself. I hate hearing my own voice. To be honest it doesn’t even sound like me, or at least I thought. Everyone else says it’s the same exact voice so I guess I’m wrong. I think it’s all about balance but that’s more often easier said than done. It seems like work takes up so much of our time that it really doesn’t leave enough hours for everything else. I think it’s me.  No, all kidding aside, I’m really not even sure. My guess would be it’s a very physical job and it can get a little tiresome at times. It’s not for everyone. I notice it’s a “glamour job” for a lot of people, until they get here. It has been a little quiet over there lately. I notice it will do that every once in awhile but then it explodes again. It’s hard to keep coming up with new discussions. I think we’ve touched on it all and it tends to get repetitive, but I’ll always keep joining in. That’s why I think humor is important over there. I take my Dallas seriously but the more lighthearted we make it at this point the more enjoyable it is for everyone. Here we are discussing a show that went off the air 32 years ago and having disagreements on what they got right and wrong. We must look like a bunch of idiots but personally I never get tired of it. Thank you! It’s cooled off a trifle but definitely not enough. That’s why I don’t mind the Christmas decorations already being up in the stores. I look at that fake snow on the trees and it automatically makes me feel a little cooler. I didn’t realize you could get a mini heatwave over there this time of year. I hope it’s a nice change! The words “mini” and “heatwave” will never be said in the same sentence over here, trust me! Enjoy your Tuesday my friend, and the same goes for everyone else reading this!</blockquote>
