BALL OF ENERGY
My brothers were all home for the weekend, once again. They are like huge balls of energy. You’d think they would come home for a little peace and quiet, and that they would go upstairs into their rooms, close the door and sleep all day long, like they used to do when they were at home. But these days it seems they have an excess of energy. They are playing ball at their schools, and it seems they never stop comparing notes. One brother is in a downstate university, while the other one is in a community college closer to home. They both blow in on Friday nights wearing their big smiles and their Dallas Mavericks caps, which they really need to replace, since they have seen better days. I don’t know what they do to those caps to make them look so ratty. They will wear a cap until it falls apart – which means they wear those caps from morning until night, and probably to bed. One thing I can say about them is they used to be loyal to one team, but now you never know what they will have to say about their used-to-be favorite teams when they walk through the door.
