A weekend at UConn with the beautiful girl in my life that I may, or may not be seeing, Kelly Greene on Husky Talk. We did not have my podcast equipment and recorded over the phone. Kelly has been a true blessing to me and has always been there. I am not easy to deal with and she hasn't given up on me yet. I can only hope to continue trying to become a better person so I will be able to definitively say she IS the girl I am SEEING!
Procyon Partners is our, longest tenured sponsor of Husky Talk. They are one of the top 50 fastest growing companies in the nation. President Sean Rabinowitz is a great friend and advisor to me.
Kelly shares the story of our trip from start to finish. I don't want to give anything away, but it is a great listen. She wanted to thank Courtney Williams for driving us, and helping, as I was not prepared to tailgate. I didn't want to pack a cooler and figured how hard could it be to pick up some food before the game near the stadium? A big miscalculation on my part.
Then she met a host of people, starting with the ageless beauty Beverly Sims, far from being 80 years young. Tyler King was next and he could have a reality TV show. Terry McClowry and his family came. His wife Margot gave baby Callan for Kelly to hold, and she loved every second. Meeting Uyi for the first time was exciting and baby Jerimyah. Of course, Dan Hernandez was able to share stories from our time living on the same floor at the dorm in Hilltop.
Mike Burton, CJ Hessel and their families were the best, everyone was kind, welcoming, happy to see us. Kelly had a blast with CJ's daughters, showing them pictures of our dogs, drawing signs together.
Halftime, we went to see Terry and Kelly was greeted by Jerimyah again in a funny story. Loved seeing Chris Bellamy with his family, he has wonderful daughters.
Phil Hunt was a favorite of Kelly's, they got to talk and she was appreciative he took time to check on us, making sure we didn't need anything. She could not say more good things about Phil.
Chris Stasaitis was also at the top of the list. Being able to see him at the game, he drove after a long day of work. We were wiped after and went back to our hotel. Thankfully Kelly saw Chris Sunday and I was able to show her UConn's campus, the places I lived.
Kelly is caring, selfless, she came with me to make sure I wasn't nervous. I wanted her there to meet the guys and have the experience of a lifetime. She loved meeting my friends finally, especially seeing the children, I can't thank Mike Burton, Tiffany Dexter Burton, for having us as their guests and a memory we will share forever.
