A GRAND RETURN yesterday was a great day - first off i got to watch Iowa State play Kansas State and win - which is something that hasn't happened in 10 years - why is this great? - well with this win Iowa State is now one step closer to winning the Big XII North Division title and then going to the Big XII Championship game - why is this so important - TWO REASONS No.1 - because Iowa State hasn't won a championship of any kind since 1913 - so this is a big deal right now - Iowa State is playing Missouri next week and depending on what happens there are two possible outcomes - A.if Iowa State wins the Missouri game then they will win the division outright it sounds confusing i know - it took me a long time to figure it out when i first read it - but truthfully i think we can win the game - well i am pretty sure we can win the game - Missouri has been playing horribly as of late - yeah they had a lot of hype preseason but they are only as good as their quarterback is - and he is not playing well at all - plus our defense is playing exceptionally well - turnovers and interceptions in multiple games - points off turnovers - we are playing very well - we can do it - what else made yesterday great was that i went out last night with the guys - i went to a hockey game with my friend chris - the game was good - even though we lost it was still good - we then went to Applebees and had a good time having a beer and some snack food - after that we went down to the bar 3 cheers - i then proceeded to get completely trashed and make a complete ass out of myself - i got so baligerent and just started pestering everyone - i remembering yelling and then freaking out - and then not wanting to sleep at chads house - ugh - fuck i am such an idiot - things go so well for an afternoon and then i go nuts - so i am sure i pissed everyone off last night - eh - but the positive thing that i was saying my yesterday so good was that i got to hang out with chris - it was fun - i hadn't really hung out with him in a long time - and i enjoyed every minute of it - i know things are going slow and that we are probably going to be friends first for a while before anything else - but it was just nice to do something with him again -

THE CHANGING TIME OF YEAR
about a month and a half ago one of the supervisors at work left and took another much better job at a different agency - that supervisory vacency then led to the vacency on the morning rotation in my unit - so i applied for the job - truthfuly - i never thought i would get the job but i had to try - there were other people in the unit and the building that get along with my boss better then i do - i guess i don't have any problems with him - but i am not as "buddy, buddy" as other people are with him - so i applied and the interviewed - i worked my ass off the whole week also - so when i applied i was in a fleece and windpants - looking like complete hell - but i ended up getting the job - a person i work with later told me that my boss said that he felt that i paid my dues and that i am actually over quallified for the job and if i didn't get the morning then i would probably leave the unit - which is funny cause the guy who was the real compatition for the job is now leaving the unit cause he is pissed off over the decision - - - - but things are going well on the morning - i have some trouble getting up for work - and i am so not a morning person - but i love having my afternoons free - plus it gives me more time for school - which brings me to the next changing thing - i am getting my masters - i have enrolled full time at Wayne State College working on my Master in Education in Community Counseling - it should take me about 2 and a half years including doing 2 internships - i just started this fall so i have a while to go - but so far i am really enjoying the classes i am taking - i am doing one on differential diagnosis right now and learning how to write treatment plans for the top 8 diagnosed mental diseases - i am enjoying it - but it will be a lot of work - papers and tests - getting back into the school mode was also a little bit rough - especially since i am still working full time and not some little part time job - its killing me a little bit cause i'm getting so tired - but eh - i can handle it - i hope - well i'm gonna be going to sleep here now cause i'm tired - but hopefully i will be doing this a lot more - hopefully every night - also GO IOWA STATE! KICK SOME K-STATE ASS! night
