What are friends for

So last night I passed the friend test in flying colors with the prodigy. He was supposed to meet this girl and unfortunately for me, this girl had a friend. So on the way home from Cincinnati I was made aware that I would be accompanying the friend that night. At first I said "absolutely not." However, after much persuasion I agreed to help him out and hang out with the friend. So long story short, after a very uncomfortable night with like 10 minutes of awkward sleep, I finally past the friend test and was able to leave and sleep in my own room until 3 in the afternoon. Yes it was an extremely awkward night and an even more awkward morning. No I didn't do anything with the friend, if thats what you are thinking. This night was a real downer for me because I was on a high after a very successful pitching performance on my part. Granted we were down 12-4 and it was the last inning so my actions didn't mean anything but I succeeded none the less. After the awkward night, the roommates and I decided to go golfing. I think I set a course record for worst round of golf in the history of mankind. It included 15 pathetic drives (on nine holes), me throwing my driver, not completing a hole out of frustration, and probably 10 lost balls. But seriously who wants to be good at golf anyways. So if the prodigy reads this blog, you're lucky that you're my friend otherwise this weekend would be almost unforgivable. There will definitely be a blog later on about something more interesting but this one is enough for now.

P.S. Thanks he who is to be named later for being there when I needed you, even though I didn't accept your offer.
