Once upon a time I was falling in love...
...Now I am only falling a part.
Well this is not entirely true. But I thought it would in fact be a catchy title for my blog this time. I hope everyone is doing well (all 4-5 of you [mostly Ryan Packer]) Which is fine since you guys know who you are and rock my world. Or throw rocks at it, depending on your mood.
So whats been up you ask in a collective inquiry? Well we are smack dab in the middle of Easter Day! That's right, Easter lasts 8 days in the Catholic Church. The early Christians knew how to party. I spent my Holy Week and Easter Sunday in Arizona. It was quite nice you may want to know, and unfortunately there were no mountain lions spotted by myself. There was a little white frog that jumped on my boot as I was walking and I screamed. It was pretty funny in the "I am a pansy" sort of way.
On the way back to Chicago, I picked up a book in the Tuscon International Airport by Humor columnist Dave Barry. Its called His money secrets. It is really quite funny. I've always enjoyed Dave Barry's writing style. He writes kinds of like I think. The complete randomness is the humor I admire and try to aspire to, and laugh my face off when it tickles me.
It is going to be a busy weekend. I have to work tonight for 10 hours and then tomorrow when 1400 of Marquette's finest are volunteering for Hunger Clean-Up 2006, I'll be getting paid for driving them places. I'll probably guilt trip myself into donating the wages from that day to some deserving charity, such as the Tommy likes pizza fund. But seriously its a good cause.
So I must leave now to prepare myself to help maintain the safety and security of Marquette's campus. I am sure there will be lots of drunk girls forgetting to put on all their clothes tonight, it tends to happen when its warm out!
Until next time...
Ladies and gentlemen take my advice...When the going gets tough, it means you probably haven't tried hard enough. If you think you have tried hard enough, you haven't. You don't really have the "winning" mindset of a champion. Why don't you just go cash in your kidney for some pocket change and buy some cheep beer? The most success you will experience today will not involve anything that you would call home to mom about. Maybe if you wanted her advice on how to get blood out of an ironing board. You disgust me you really do. You make me sick.

IT'S MORPHIN TIME!
Hello dear friends, enemies, and Romans. I would like to say that it has been a long time since I have posted, but that is such a very common theme on many people's blogs. It seems like this whole "blogging" thing was really cool for like a week, but then the kid almost got expelled and everyone is afraid that the next thing they write could raise some red flags to the folks at Marquette's School of Dentistry. Watch out man, they'll pull your teeth out before you've even tasted the mint flavored dental floss.
I still haven't decided entirely what the purpose of this blog is. Originally intended to be an anti "Trollyman" blog site, the perpetrators of the false blog have seemed to surrender after their last humiliating post. Also each blog was suppossed to have advice, but I forgot it last time.
So let us take this opportunity to change the theme of the blog. You could call it a metamorphisis, or "morph" for short.
I just finished the second season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers today, again instead of homework. It was pretty good. Some of the episodes dragged and others were cool. The White Ranger is pretty intense, but I still lean a little towards the Green Ranger, both of which are the character Tommy, so I guess I am a little biased.
This week and next should be pretty good. I only have one test tomorrow and it's multiple choice. And then at 3:15 tomorrow my weekend begins as it does every Thursday. I'll be attending Thursday dinner, Catholic Outreach and then taking the reigns over at SSP for my 10-3 AFS shift. It should be pretty fun.
Friday is a whole new ball of wax this week! I don't have to work! I've not had a Friday off in a long time where I wasn't attending some sort of retreat. So I think Dom, Scotty, and me will be taking in the Brewer's game that night at Miller Park.
Saturday I will however, be making up for the lack of work on Friday. At 8a.m. I will be helping administer the LIMO Test Course. I think that goes til 3ish but then I am the on Duty AFS from 5-3. So if my calculations are correct, that's almost 20 hours of work in ultimatley one day! Woo Hoo. I complain about it but in the long run thats what I live for. Whether it be the Trolley and FCQ or SSP I usually love working. It's better than being bored. Although I think my longest day at either SSP or the FCQ would 13 hours. So this will be a new experience. I will in fact be meeting my weekly hours in one day. Cool.
I suppose I should go study for some tests now, I'll probably just look up Power Ranger web sites though before finally getting some food and watching LOST.
Ladies and Gentlemen take my advice, if you ever on your way from school to the local Gym and Juice Bar, DO NOT cut through The Park. The Park is one of THE MOST frequently attacked places by Lord Zedd and Rita's evil henchmen. Chances are you will fight some putties, probably Goldar, and then Zedd will turn one of your personal items into a monster. Then you'll have to morph, fight some more putties, before finally calling on the Thundermegazord to destroy the monster of the day. True, the entire encounter will only take 22 minutes, but save yourself some time and frustration, just take the long way to the Juice Bar. Zordon will be glad you did!
