Marcie and I are finally back into the swing of things. The vacation was awesome, but it feels good to be back on a schedule.  It looks like we are both going to have a busy spring.  Marcie ended up picking up an extra class on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.  This means she will be teaching 7 classes.  Sure does sound like alot to me – a normal class load is 5 classes…

I had been planning on taking this semester off from classes.  Spring is incredibly busy at work and it would have been nice to just focus on work this go around.  But, it turns out there was an “online” class meaning I can do all the classwork on my own time.  No lectures, no tests.  Just papers and possibly sitting for the CAPM or certified associate in project management certification.

On a side note – just found out some good friends are unexepectedly pregnant!  Who knew that you could have two miracle babies!?  You should definitely read their story here and enjoy a short video of their families’ reactions.

My little brother Grant is in, pending his choice of law school this spring. Depending on who accepts him and where he chooses to attend, he may be starting in the summer as opposed to the fall. I’m hoping he has his choice of schools. Of course I’ll be happy to postpone this trip if necessary.

Now that Tech has lost, the thought of turning on ESPN or visiting espn.com makes my stomach hurt.  It’s too bad they didn’t even put up a decent fight against OU.  All I can say is good luck to OSU next weekend.   Tech fans will be rooting for you.

Since I’m not in the mood to read the latest news about Tech football, I figured I would try and learn my way around this WordPress thing…starting with a new theme.

Lee Corso, Kirk Herbstreet, and Some Guy

For the first time, GameDay is at TTU!  Kirk and Lee showed up on campus as we were checking out the scene after lunch at One Guy’s.  We plan on being there at 7 AM tomorrow.  GameDay airs at 9 AM tomorrow morning!  Obviously this isn’t the greatest picture, but that it Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreet and some guy’s giant head.

College Gameday

It was good to see alot of old friends this weekend. Josh and Jesse flew in from Arizona and Indiana and of course the usuals were in for the weekend’s game. The game ended up being very exciting near the end with Texas Tech holding off Nebraska in overtime. The game shouldn’t have been near as close as it was, so I’m more relived than anything else. Tech is still #7 in the AP poll and has moved to #5 in the coach’s poll!

The Red Raiders are heading into the Kansas State game ranked #7 in the AP poll, the highest ranking since 1976. They open up big 12 conference play today with a 4-0 record, although they have yet to play a formidable opponent. The game should be exciting and is on ABC this afternoon. We’ll be watching at the Odorizzi’s Octoberfest party. Wreck’em!
