After finals, I drove up on Thursday and met up with Mommy and flew with her to Nashville to watch FooFoo graduate. Me'n'her roamed around the 8 acres of the Opryland Hotel Lobby and I got to meet the new beau and the beau's mom. Flew back the next day and had Pho for dinner with Mommy at her fav pho place. Drove back home to Lubbock Saturday morning, picked up Chris and Peter and went to Amarillo for the AutoX on Sunday in Dalhart. Stayed at Chris's mom's lovely house and met his brother, the doggies, and his dad. I like his family, a lot. We got back Sunday evening and the guys and I worked on the SAE car until wee hours - this could be a long and drawn out story with details about the car that none of you want to read, so I won't write it. Early this morning we met up, loaded up the guys and the truck and they're on their way. I join them tomorrow via plane. Dood! Kick ass deals on airfare - roundtrip: $341.
So, the rest of today I caught up on much needed crazy sleep and visited Mr. O and Kevin. Kevin has my new stereo and it will be installed tomorrow.
And that's that. There are pictures for the graduation and the autox and the sae car, and I'll put them up soon. Until then... here, check out the car:

There are a few of us still left in the jungles. They're having us storm Hill 24-7 aka "Finals". Hand dug trenches. Torrential rains. Gangrene everywhere. It's dark when it should be light. I wake up sweating thinking I missed something. People disappearing around me. All around me. Like zombies, everyone. It's a necessary evil, they say. Like that first can of cheap beer, or that shot of questionable Tequila. It'll be over soon. They say I can go home when I'm done. I'm not sure they mean it. They'll want me to come back just one more time. They always do. This is my third tour here. Third I tell you. Night is coming. More firefight by candle light. Back to the trenches I go, dodging bullets...Just like in Nam.

My internet is out. The powersupply in my computer is dead. I'm on campus on a Sunday afternoon. The one good thing: The Grande Ice'd Chai I got from Starbucks. 5 squirts chai, 2 squirts vanilla, 2 squirts cinnamon, and milk up to there.. Ask for it, you'll like it. What else is going on? Nothing until Tuesday afternoon. Until then, keep cool my babies*.
*I like Conan.
