School’s Getting a Little Crazy, Y’all

Again, here I am, tail between my legs, sorrily lacking in updates. I’ve got a paper due this week (on a depressing, out of print adventure novel by Robert Louis Stevenson about three homeless guys who steal a ship — good times) along with an accounting test (even better times).
In the legitimate good times section, however, Saturday we beat Rice University to go 3-0 on the season. The game was solid city even I sat (stood) in between the Vandy Fanatics (the guys who paint themselves yellow) and the band, which is not really my favorite place to stand during games, but we were really, really close to the action. The D.J. Moore punt return to the one yard-line happened literally just in front of where my friend Dustin and I were standing in the aisle (we saw each other from afar, jumped up into the aisle to chat, which went something like “Yeah, the Morgan rooming situation is going well,” “Towers is actually going wel–GOOOOOOOOO” “WOOOOOOO” “YEAH.”)
Also this past weekend, we produced the first issue of the Torch, which involves copy editing and layout with Adobe InDesign from about 2pm Friday until roughly midnight for four of us. We always go to dinner somewhere, usually either Ted’s Montana Grill or Noshville (it’s a Kosher, Seinfeld-like diner that’s on meal money where you can get sweet, sweet grilled cheeses or omelets)–this time we went to Noshville (I had a grilled cheese with bacon, cheddar on wheat). Next weekend, my friend Mike, who’s the editor of the Hustler, and I are going to New York for a professional journalism course with the group that gives the Torch a grant each year, Collegiate Network. We’re both really pumped to go, should be a fun time.
Anyway, PAPER TIME. (Like HAMMER TIME, yet far less fun.)
