Ok so here's the deal...I post every Wednesday however this week I've been wayy to busy to write anything...so i'm skirting the post rule by having a guest post...my good friend Toothpic volunteered to do one so here it is enjoy!
Unless you live under a rock you probably know that most of America is obsessed with football. Note I didn't say American males, there are tons of females obsessed with football too. I walked down the hall in my dorm this Sunday and three girls were tuned into a football game. Three different girls, in their own rooms all watching the same game. At least dudes are smart and have parties with food to watch football. The TV in the lobby is almost always tuned to football with a couple of guys (or girls) sitting around it. I grew up with one side of my family LOVING football. One of my cousins even said 'Football is life'. I mean, don't they ever get tired of sitting in front of a screen, or on a bleacher yelling at guys who do the same thing week after week? Oh wait it gets better. This weekend is THE game of the week between UT and Texas Tech (igoraiders!). The hardcore fans set up tents outside of the stadium on Sunday night waiting for the game this weekend. They even have a sign saying 'Raiderville, Population: 825'. Yes that is how many hardcore fans are out there. They would have set up their tents earlier but they weren't allowed to until Sunday night. If that just isn't way too obsessed, you are over the deep end than I don't know what is. I understand playing football, and throwing a football around. I get that, my football career was shortlived after I had my major football accident. We were only playing touch football so who knows what would have happened if we were playing tackle football. I guess it just goes with our young people's obsession with converse, randomness, tangents, the f word, complaining about school, a host of other things I could make a whole blogpost complaining about. But until then I am spending my time avoiding being dragged to the Texas Tech football games. Oh crap, here they come. *ducks and hides*

CSM started back up today, it was quite fun! we had about 15 people total and about 8 new people, it was really fun starting to get to know the new people and, kinda catch up with the returning members. I say kinda cause i kept up with everyone over the summer, and that's what i love about our group, we actually keep up with each other outside of the meetings, i've been in a few bible study groups in the past where i didn't really see anyone outside of the set times and when the groups quit meeting i never saw anybody again, so i really like having a group that i can actually hang out with. Its looking like its going to be a really good group this semester and hopefully we'll have more people show up along the way...
soon we will be starting up operation christmas child again...its early i know...but the deadlines usually late november and the earlier you get the word out the better...
so yeah,

rainclouds and pajamas
There must be something about colleges, rainy mornings, and pajamas.
I'm in the school library right now and i look around and see pagamas and fuzzy slippers...i'll admit it i've worn pjs to school acouple of times i'm not knocking it, i just love the will power some people have to be lazy. Especially here at TCC there are no dorms, which means nobody lives on campus. these people had to get up and drive willingly saying 'I'm going to be lazy today.' I'm pretty sure the thunderstorm from last night is to blame. It was awesome woke me up and knocked out the power briefly. And when i was driving this morning the sky was amazing, I got up too late for the sunrise, but the dark clouds and blue sky were just epic. and i can't tell if the rainclouds are coming or going, and i'm not sure i want to look at a forecast either, today seems like a good day for surprises.
until next time,

friday nights, football, and what not
I went to my old high school's football game last night. Of all the things that have changed at that school in the past 2 years the football team has remained consistent...the final score: 21-42...yeah...the football team isn't great...however the Band was awesome like always! Yes, it was good go and see the band's show and hear the tunes I must have played a thousand times in the stands. Its fun to go back to the games, especially now that my sister is in high school (man i feel old...) and as much as I miss playing in the stands it definitely better to go simply as a spectator, to just sit and cheer for my team as they drop every pass thrown and let the other side slip through the cracks...
I'm actually considering going to a marching contest if any of them are close by...(Anybody down for a Saturday full of marching bands?)
though for the most part i think now that my sister decided to be on the swim team, that i'll be turning attention towards that and rooting for her as she does her thing.
lets see what this school year brings!
until next time sports fans,

[No Title, Can't Think of Anything Clever]
As of two days ago (AKA Monday) I have 4 less teeth in my mouth...and it sorta hurts but not really... my two biggest problems are 1) not eating a whole lot of substantial food stuffs and 2) not going anywhere, apparently its kinda bad to drive when you have pain meds in your system...whatever...(note I'm not driving while these pills are in my system there that should stop the flood of e-mails from concerned citizens). But seriously i'm getting bored stuck at home I wanna go do stuff I probably will tomorrow I have a follow up appointment tomorrow so the dentist can see how I'm healing anyway so I have an excuse to leave...but enough about my life...
For most of my readership school is going to be starting up pretty soon ( if it hasn't already...) and so some of us are moving to places such as Raider Land (AKA Lubbock), Arlington, and where ever else your school might be...(anyone studying somewhere outside Texas? The US? If anyone is going to college on Mars, please hook me up!)
So as the clock winds down to that first day don't forget to say your goodbyes, swap e-mails, triple check everything you're packing, burn any cds you need to give to anyone. But lastly (now remember this is important) don't forget that your time in schooling is supposed to be a learning experience and it will be tough, but do remember to have fun along the way...
That does it for this weekly post... I'll see you next week,
