Last night I drove up to NYC to the Veloce Club<\/a> at 17 Cleveland Place. I met up with Seyta of Duchess<\/a>. I was measured for a new suit and picked out fabric and designs. I turns out my left arm is a half in longer than my right. Ha. I’m very excited about this. I’ve been wanting a nice suit for a while so I’m getting one made for me. It’s going to be gorgeous. There were a lot of guys there in their own wares and they all look great. I hope to get another suit maybe later this year or early next year. Seyta was extremely helpful not to mention being a great designer too. I highly recommend Duchess!<\/p>\n

Also yesterday Ryan Newman<\/a> finished 8th which put him up 2 more spots in the standings up to 5th now! His teammate Tony Stewart finished 2nd which means he took over the points lead! Yay!<\/p>\n

On Saturday we played our 11th annual softball game and bbq. I did fairly well, made a couple outs on well hit balls and I got on base only cause of my lighting speed. I played third base. Made a few good plays in the field including an unassisted double play.<\/p>\n

Tonight I’ll be meeting the guys at Jo Jo’s Tavern<\/a>. I’m looking forward to it. It’s been a good weekend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
