Long week, football Saturday

Wednesday, almost over. This week seems to be even longer than normal. I guess 3-day weekends do that.

OU’s back home this weekend, hosting ESPN’s College Gameday and the Missouri Tigers. It’s the school’s homecoming weekend, and all the fraternities/sororities have been building decorations and floats (for Saturday’s parade) this week. Many of the themed statues are on display on the South Lawn; I’ll make it a point to snap some photos tomorrow or Friday.  They were taken down in lieu of the weekend.

I think I’ll be part of the flag detail again, for the game. It’s tough work getting ol’ glory 75+ feet into the air, but it’s worth the employee pass I get. This means at halftime I can walk down to the soon-to-be-closed McConnell’s and grab a beer, and then get back in!

Tomorrow’s the longest day of the week, but I’m looking forward to it, because it makes Friday so much easier.

Running, weekend plans

ROTC running totals

I’ve been running a lot since the end of August, over 30 miles. No wonder I have shin splints.

Ashleigh & I are going to her parents’ house for the weekend. She’s been sick for the last couple of days, so hopefully this trip will be just what she needs. We haven’t seen her parents since the wedding in August. Her brother Austin plans on being there too, which is convenient because his birthday is coming up & we need to celebrate!

OU v. Texas is this weekend. OU should rebound from their pathetic loss last week with a win over their Red River rival Longhorns.


Upgraded

I finally upgraded the site to Wordpress 2.3 & K2 RC2. Let me know about any problems via email at the bottom of the screen.
