Thursday: August 10, 2006 - Big News Day
First, and most importantly, marty's last day in town will be Friday. Marty will be the fifth and final
friend leaving. Most people, including jamie, went to the Farewall Dinner at Mori I did not because I had messed up my wrist
falling in karate coupled with a steel drum gig. After the gig though, Jamie and I went over to Marty's to claim his houseplants as well as most of the leftover
condiments in his refrigerator. I was able to get a nice balsamic vinagrette as well as four eggs and some margarita mix and a bevy of other things stuffed into a large
Prada bag. Marty was also kind enough to scrape a fully grown roach (not a palmetto bug thankfully) from the groove of my trunk with a stick. I'm trying hard to force
that image out of my mind as the "last Marty memory". At least he's leaving a man.

Good Things Take Time...
2 days until FSU Football (2010)
Random Picture...
That little hut was a Senior Frogs. I'd never been to one but everyone seemed to be wearing shirts from there.

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.
