I'm back in Hope using slow internet, and it really stinks, although I can sign into MSN Messenger. I thought that was odd. I haven't been able to sign in since Tuesday, and then I use dial-up and it works. I don't know.
Last night I experienced playing at a college football game for the first time. I would have rather been anywhere else, especially Oklahoma. The football team dished out an arse-whoopin' with a score of forty-something to seven, and I couldn't care less. I don't even know where the other team was from. All I know is that their colours where purple and white as well, so it looked like the field was covered with a bunch of pansies, not to mention the stands. I made sure the only purple thing I wore was the band unifrom, which made me really appreciate our high school uniforms. Man, we used to look sharp. Even the old uniforms were cool. I do like purple, however, it is not a good school colour.
Our half-time show went pretty well for the first game. We marched our Queen Opener, which consists of "Fat-Bottomed Girls" and "Bohemian Rhapsody," and we played our second tune, "Lucretia MacEvil," and the fight song. After Phynerk's last post I want to see the Hope Band. Somebody let me know when Homecoming is and I'll see if I can find my way out of the practice room.
Last night on the way home there was a wreck on I-30 and I was stuck just outside of Arkadelphia for two hours with some fine specimens of white trash. I could smell smoke from inside my truck as I watched them try to entertain their seven kids, which undoubtedly involved quite a few curse words. They were probably on their way to pick up this month's welfare check. When I finally got away from there, I drove 90 the whole way home because I was about to fall asleep. That usually happens at one in the morning. I would've gone faster, but every time I drive over 90, my truck starts to kind of...um...stop, I guess. It is somewhat old now.
Has anybody been watching the Olympics? I haven't watched T.V in three weeks, and I was wondering how everything was going. I don't even know if it's still going on. Um....Go Ireland!!! That reminds me, I still haven't read my copy of Irish Girls About Town. I also need to pick up a copy of Angela's Ashes, which I recomend to everyone who's looking for a great read. But try to forget I recomended it, because I don't want to contribute to the "loss of creature." You must find the unbeaten path...
