Bunch of Stuff

I am feeling the need to blog. This may turn out to be complete crap, but bear with me. LOL

I am the commissioner of a Fantasy Football league on yahoo. Let me just say that my team looked pretty good in week one, and has now progressed to the toilet. Injuries and crap offenses are KILLING me. But I am still having such a great time doing it that I really don't care! I love all the guys/gals in my league. If you know me, you know I'm a huge fan of the Buffalo Bills. I am BEYOND disappointed in their use/lack of use of T.O. Why on earth would you shell out money and NOT utilize this player? But it's the Bills so I don't bother questioning. LOL We suck. ;)

My grad class this week reminded me of why it's called grad school. Man, she has piled on the work! I like it, though. Wow. Weird, huh?

Yesterday I had my mid-term in Folklore. It was a booger. After the test I informed the professor that I would not be in class on Thursday. My other class was cancelled and I don't really want to drive to JB for one class if I don't have to. So, he asks me why I wouldn't be there? I'm a GROWN woman. Are you kidding me?!?!? But I play along. I tell the truth. I tell him I'm going deer hunting. He replies, and I kid you not, "you have a doctor's appointment?" What the heck?!?!? So, I just say ooookkkaaayyy. And then he tells me to just bring an excuse from the doctor. Are you freaking kidding me?!?!? I have not missed ONE class, I paid for my school WITHOUT financial aid, and I've got to bring a NOTE from my doctor EXCUSING me from class?!?!? ROFL This just cracks me up! Did I get mad? Nah, I just figure I'm so young looking that he obviously is confused. LOL I mean apparently he is a tad confused or deaf....?!?!?!

Now, normally I would've repeated my deer excuse but it just so happens that I did have a doctor's appointment. Of course it's on the wrong day (it was today), but whatever. I have a knee "issue" that has been bothering me for a couple of weeks. I won't go into the details but let's just say.....it HURTS. X-ray shows no bone damage and my doctor (who I just really like a LOT...Dr. Brandy D) is leaning more toward tendon issue. Soooo, I am taking steroids that will either
a. pump me up like Hans and Frans
b. make me insane, think roid rage
c. cure me of all my little bone pings/pains or
d. do nothing and cause me to have to endure an MRI
I am going to pick C, although I'm almost even money on D. My luck, it'll be A AND B. LOL

If you read my blog at all, you know I am struggling with our presence in Afghanistan. I watched an absolutely fascinating 6 part documentary on msnbc entitle "Tip of the Spear" by Robert Engels. If you have the chance or time, please google and watch. It really is well done, and seemingly void of propaganda. Just the facts.

Well, hopefully the next time I blog I will be a happy hunter. I love the woods and can hardly wait. Later readers..........
