Doh

You know what is silly? Setting your phone down 3 inches away from the charger but not plugging it in. Some days I amaze myself.

I never wanted a camera in my phone. I never found the idea appealing and I still think that there are more useful things to do with the space that circuitry takes up. I do have to admit though, there are times when having a camera on my phone is handy. Take for instance... last weekend.

The first picture is Scott on a bull. The second picture is Scott... no longer on the bull (unfortunately Scott is laying behind the bull).

Z is a good letter to put in a title.

Today was the first day of the new semester. It was the first day of school for 2008. It was the first day of the rest of my life.. ok, not really. It was just another day in the rest of my totally awesome life. A life I started for myself 4 years ago when I decided to stop dicking around, become a serious student, marry the girl of my dreams and move back to Arizona. 2 out of 3 is pretty damn good.
Today was a day that I have been dreading for 2 weeks. Christmas vacation is always odd. It like cracking a 2 liter soda you just spent the last 3 months shaking, releasing just enough pressure to get the foam up to the cap, then screwing the cap back on. I found myself between classes with the urge to just walk back to my car, get in, and drive home. I am starting the 4th year of school and it is really starting to wear on me. The constant suspension of what I feel is my normal life due to the temporal and financial strain the pursuit of higher education is starting to take its tole. I've only been back to school for 1 day and I already need a vacation.

In a completely unrelated topic, the Chargers beat the Colts and are headed to the AFC championship. I have mixed feeling about this. I am really happy the Chargers did so well and where able to pull of the win. On the other hand I have no illusion that they can beat the Patriots to get to the super bowl, especially with the physical toll they paid to get to the championship. I think the Colts have a much better chance of beating New England and my loathing of the Patriots seems to be outweighing my love of the Chargers. I guess I should just be happy I have had a good season. Chargers make it to the championship game, Redskins made the playoffs (barely), and the Cardinals didn't have a loosing season (I know, hard to believe!)
