Thursday: June 18, 2009 - I'm Getting It
I'm totally getting the new iPhone. It comes out today and while I won't be part of the teeming masses I'm still going to get it. Why? Because I deserve it. Yes, my old one works fine despite the crack that runs down the middle of the screen. If they'll let me keep a crappy sim card in it and use it as an emergency phone that I can store in the glove compartment of my car then great. Aside from going out to eat a lot (ok, a lot-lot) I don't really spend money on stuff unless I have to so sometimes you gotta treat yourself right.
We've had some nice weather up here this week even though it's supposed to rain all weekend. Chompy and Oreo are getting along better and it's hard to believe I only have one more full week left of teaching this session. Weirdy. Time moves a lot more quickly when you wake up before 7am with a full day rather than 10am with a less-full day.
In other news, the Cubs suck. Sammy Sosa was also found to have failed a steroids test in 2003. Duh. Seriously, duh. Who didn't see that one coming.

Good Things Take Time...
2 days until FSU Football (2010)
Random Picture...
The low sky is blocking the sun I'm going to need to de-white myself.

09-02-2009: I think I have the swine flu. I think I caught it during the Counting Crows concert then brought it back. I took the liberty of passing it along to 100+ college students in the hopes of teaching them a valuable history lesson about settlers and smallpox blankets (right Steve?) I actually do feel a little bit better today but I've also slept away the gross majority of the past three days. Tomorrow I have to go back to school and I can't call in sick so by 10am I'll know how bad I have it depending on how many students I inadvertently killed on Wednesday.
Football starts tonight. Thank God. Too bad I'll be asleep and have to miss the first two games. On Monday Tim and Chris are going to come over to watch FSU whomp Miami. Back to bed.09-02-2008: Ok, seriously, we're playing MarioKart tonight at 8pm. SERIOUSLY.
I got sick last night around 10pm for no reason. Just a regular cold but it came out of nowhere and by the time I woke around 2:30pm this afternoon it had almost totally gone away. Weird. I ordered ESPN GamePlan yesterday so now I can watch up to six college football games at once. This is grossly unnecessary but really, few things in life are really all that necessary. The Cubs can't clinch a playoff spot fast enough--my big TV awaits!
I also picked up Ab last night and she and Chompy covered my bed in dirt after running around in the clay before coming in. Speaking of clay, I read that some people crave eating clay while pregnant. Weirdy. Since I'm phoning in today's entry, here's a video that's worth the watch (with FSU alum Richard Simmons no less).
I took the day off blogging but only because I was thinking of you.09-02-2006: After laboring in coal-mine like conditions for the past 11 months I was pleased to get Labor Day off. Over the weekend the only major thing I "accomplished" was buying a new TV for my office. I got it at Home Depot of all places but I wanted a 15" LCD and didn't want to spend $350 at Best Buy for a crap-brand when I could spend $250 at Home Depot for a Magnavox. The TV it replaced did not change channels or allow you to adjust the volume more than once a week. Usually each Sunday I'd decide what channel and volume to watch for the week and then hate my decision to choose Lifetime (hey, Fraiser was on) on near-mute. The new TV is nice and it looks good next to my two flat-screen monitors. Booyah.
