It’s been a while, I realize. At least it has been for me.

Let’s see. So what’s happened since I last posted?

• Got back my first homework grades. It’s nice to know if I completely fail everything else in COP 5615, I’ll have a 1.88.
• Actually read textbooks. What is this? You’re not supposed to have to read the books.
• Solved at least 10 crosswords.
• Played in quite a few boggy-pong games. Realized that this is a game that Alabama’s BCM could have fun with, except that Bill would kill everyone in it.
• Paid huge first bills for power, home phone, and cell phone. Account goes way, way down. Remembered that I’m a college student – having less than $200 in my checking account is a way of life.
• Discovered there’s a cheese that I don’t like – Monterey Jack.
• Car had a radiator go out. Fixed.
• Went to my first Florida football game – a torrential downpour almost the entire game. Wore my rainsuit. Was one of only three in my party with a rainsuit.
• Car had a headlight go out. Fixed.
• The first two tellings of the “cycle of death” story occurred, with predictable results.
• Car had a tire go flat. Fixed.
• Actually been associated with a school that beat Tennessee. Now if it can only happen again on October 26…
• Found what I believe will become my church home here at UF.

Amidst other things. But that’s what comes to mind right now.
