Power to the People

I'm lacking on good material this week. Since I need to honor Mouse's request for daily updates during finals, I am going to ask all of you to give me a topic to write about. I can't promise I'll be funny or witty, but I'll do my best. Please do not suggest boring topics. I define the following as boring: Bucknell Basketball, Mpls Ju, Final Exams. The following topics are fun and exciting: Michigan sports (at least our basketball team is undefeated) and not having to take exams anymore.

I may not update tomorrow. We have a holiday party for work and I probably won't be home until late. If the suggested topic of the day is good, then I will write something.

As for me, I went out with some friends last night for UNICorn's birthday. I call him UNICorn since he went to the University of Northern Iowa (UNI) and I associate corn with that state. Not funny. I know. We had a game night and ate Chinese food. We played this really bad game called Crack the Case. UNICorn and RoopDogg are huge fans of the game, but I think it's incredibly boring. It wasn't as bad with teams of five, but I was more interested in the 42-0 MNF blowout personally.

Speaking of corn, I made plans with the Nebraska contingent to watch the Alamo Bowl game on the 28th. As much as I'd love to go, I have to work. However, the Nebraska crew (two people in their thirties) is as crazy about their team as FlyingV and I are about ours. I am really excited about the match up. We can settle 1997 once and for all, and hopefully add insult to injury by settling a score for PSU as well. What the hell is a 'cornhusker'? They should come up with a more ferocious nickname.

I saw highlights from the Lions game this weekend with the guy running through the stadium with the "Fire Millen" sign. Hilarious! I can't wait to see what Lions fans do for the final home game of the season in a couple weeks against Cincinatti. A 100% empty stadium is the best suggestion I can offer. What a pathetic team.

"I define the following as boring: Mpls Ju"

HEY! juju is plenty fun and exciting, ginew!

here are other good topics:
-Carson Palmer's dreeeeeamyness
-Mouse's chances of marrying Carson Palmer (I hear he's single)
-The Cincinnati Bengal and how they're going to kick the Lions' ass in a few weeks (you spelled Cincinnati wrong, by the way)
-Whether or not Mouse should go out again with the 35 year old man who her sister is trying to hook her up with, even though she knows she's not interested in dating him at all (hey, it's free drinks. he's loaded.)
-the fact that Larry Brown got his ass handed to him at the Palace last Friday. (woo-hoo! Deeeetroit Basketbaaaaaall)
-Big Ben Wallace's dreeeeeeamyness
-Mouse's freaking out because every time her computer goes to sleep she thinks it's died for good when she neeeeeeeds it to finish her finals

there you go. that's plenty of topics. discuss.

Second of all, I challenge you to do something absolutely outrageous at your holiday party tomorrow. Then you can just write about that. it will be Fun! and Interesting! (kind of like me!)

alright, back to work for me now.

by the way, when exactly are you getting into town? if you're coming early enough on the 18th we could go to the local watering hole to watch the Lions lose to my dreeeeeamy future husband.

roopdogg, I knew you'd come around. I'm so proud of you.

YES, let's talk about ben wallace's dreeeeamyness. I was going to suggest that we discuss plans for me to get Big Ben to leave his wife and come shack up with me, but a) the palace is far away, b) I hear he has kids. I don't do kids, and c) an esteemed air force friend informed me that, "Sugar, he would break you."
