Football Against the Enemy

Weekend plans: Going to Scotty's, watching sports and boxing...

Back from Minnesota...15 minutes ago. I'll do a whole write up after I sleep for two days.

Sorry about your Packers Cecelia, Farve blew it for you.

The weekend is here! Fucking Finally. Unfortunately, I have turn to in a lot of coursework early, so I can leave Sunday morning as opposed to Tuesday of next week.

Here are my plans for the next week or two.

Friday: Walk around campus and turn crap in to various instructors mailboxes...those bastards need a "hard copy". Friday also makes it Gopher Hockey night, and...

This is my favorite time of year. I always love the first snow, it brightens my day.

I think, one of the times I'm really truly happy would be walking along somewhere, with snow falling down. There is something about it that makes it so calm and peaceful.

If only I was 9 again, so I could put on my snowpants and go play King...

Since when does this state have so many tornadoes? I don't think I've had that many tornado watches in a week or so ever and I've lived all over.

I was stuck in Ballentine Hall (the biggest university building in the US) for about an hour after we had to "evacuate" our classroom because it had windows.

Wow, now I've been in a car accident

I was hit by a car when I was on my bike when I was younger, but until today I'd never been in a car that hit or was hit by another car.

That all changed when my friend and I were going to lunch.

We were pulling up at an intersection, and the car in front...

To stay in Bloomington, or to go "home" this weekend. That new home being Columbus, Ohio.

I haven't even seen my new house yet.

Part of me really wants me to go and see my Mom, since she's been pretty lonely lately after living in hotels for 7 weeks due to work, and the other part of me says I want to stay here this...

This (edited) quote from the movie "The Football Factory" accurately sums up a lot of my feelings right now:

"Are you gonna sit in some poxy office with a cunt for a boss telling you what to do as you count your pennies trying to make ends meet in a country that's sinking into strikes and wars and at the end of the day you...
