Hey guys,
A lot of fun stuff happened in December, but the craziest thing was a shocking betrayal from within the guys.
We did a secret santa within the fellows. In the weeks leading up to the exchange, people were getting “elfed”, and we were doing our best to predict who had who. “Elfing” is little surprise gifts/actions from your secret santa. I thought Ihad it all figured out after a couple people blew their cover. However, Bryan had fabricated a whole cover story to deceive us. He staged elaborate (and thoughtful) elfs to someone he didn’t even have. It set off a chain of incorrect guesses, to the point where I don't think I had a correct single prediction. The guys and I were RATTLED.
Turns out Bryan had me and NOT Evy. I can’t get that mad though because he got me a couple of very nice cigars (Romeo y Julieta 1875, for those who care). Side note on cigars, don’t be like me and accidently buy fake ones at the airport in Nicaragua.
Another side note, Bryan is best friends with my high school friend Drew, who once convinced me we were in the same online class together for an entire semester. I put his name on group projects and peer evaluations... I was RATTLED then, so I guess it makes sense they are friends. (Bryan and I first met at Drew’s bachelor party).
Work:
RDG Commercial has 2 buildings under contract! Both of contracts were “hopefully going to get signed in the next week or two” for about 3 months, but that’s the name of the game haha. I’m not exactly the most crucial gear in the machine, but I learn something new every day. One thing about Commercial Real Estate is we love our fancy terminology. I learn a new buzz word every day. For example, if you are looking to “deploy some capital”, give me a call (jk…unless).
Duck Duck Goose:
Over break, I was able to enjoy spending time with some good friends in the blind. I was pretty unsuccessful on the duck front, but I was able to get the job done with the geese in Madison county. Farmer Gene wanted them gone, and I was able to help. And just like that, my season is over, and I’ve set my sights on the red rum in OBX. I’m counting down the days until Spring!
Until next time,
Josh
