OK. I usually don't geek out about American football for a couple of reasons:
1. I don't really like the NFL
2. My college alma mater (Vanderbilt) usually stinks.
However, so far this season has been great. Why?
Vanderbilt is 2-0.
Now, for those of you who are not-so-football savvy, let me put this into perspective for you.

the trip was through the spanish department.
Off to Atlanta tomorrow for a friend's wedding and the long Labor Day weekend.
I'll also be off to Dragon Con as well. We usually have a pretty good time there drinking heavily and making fun of weird people. Preferably in that order.

Still no new computer. I've been promised a replacement by the middle of next week, and hopefully, inshallah, this one will work just fine. My current unit (heh, I said unit) is about three years old now, and it's definitely time for an upgrade. I went all out, too.

I ordered a new computer online from Dell 10 days or so ago. A big shiny brand new one with top-of-the-line graphics capability to I can play WoW hardcore Big widescreen monitor to boot. Way too much money.
Anyway, it comes in today, and I put it together, salivating at the idea of a new computer. Mine's about 3 years old and in need of...

oh i;m going to bring back all the old sayings.
I'm back from SouthernBelle's birthday party. It was a hoot. This was my first true SGNC party, and it didn't disappoint. I introduced many of the folks to the wonders of Cabo Wabo, and even choked down a bit of Jagermeister for the birthday girl. It's gonna take weeks to get that taste out of my mouth.
I posted my pictures in my files....

Dangit, I gotta go back to work tomorrow....
Bleh. I was getting spoiled with this whole summer vacation thingy.
Ah well.
To be honest, I'm actually looking forward to the school year starting again. I'm sure the freshmen will look younger than they did last year, as per usual.

Of course they will, and as the British Press are on holiday, they'll all have better qualifications. 
I hate that they always jump on the A Level / GCSE pass rate every year. Meh.

Why can't the post be that fast in this direction? Damn it. That only went on Wednesday morning. Not via the work mail room. At all.
Wasn't Vandy the team a couple of years ago that ESPN did a special on because the coach didn't allow cussing.
As for Birmingham City They will come around but I hope they finish way behind Liverpool if ya know what I mean.
But dont get us started on our Basketball team!
WAY TO GO VANDY!!
We need to plan a get together... what works for you guys?
