Some people use their blogs to confess their problems or their sins online. Well, I guess it's my turn.
One of the things I cannot resist is making stupid faces when people are trying to take a picture. Especially when I'm in a group of guys, and lots of cameras are flashing.
This picture is a perfect look at my imperfections. Here I am, with longtime friends David Ward, Jamie Kozick (and his new son Jayson), Chadd Sommers (and his new son Noah), and me - in what I thought was a cool shirt I got on our vacation.
Anyhow, if you enlarge this friendly photo, you'll see the worst side of Gary coming out. I want to publicly apologize to Aimee Kozick and anyone else who has to look at this picture.
Sometimes, I justify the faces as a method of stretching out my cheeks and preparing for the next actual smile. It gets tiresome posing and acting happy for the camera. Okay, I truly WAS happy, and it was great to see these guys.
Ward? I've known Dave since 2nd or 3rd grade, and he remains a good friend from Lake, lives in Copley, and works for Diebold. He's also a Penn State grad, probably waiting for Paterno to retire before he can be proud of his school again.
Kozick? I've known Koe since 2nd grade, and we have tons of memories and inside jokes together. We shared the rap music phase and the Ohio High School football phase (which is still going on), and also were involved in each other's weddings! We were in Akron to celebrate the arrival of he and Aimee's new son, Jayson. Koe lives near Washington D.C., and I'm not supposed to tell you who he works for.
Sommers? I've known Chadd since junior high at The Chapel. Chadd didn't go to Lake High, except on nights and weekends. It was a blast living close to Chadd for our four years in Akron again, and great to see his son Noah doing so well!
I think all of these people have boys just trying to impresss Allison. Get in line, gentlemen! And wait 25 years. =)
