M-I-Z

Z-O-U!!!!!
Can you believe it??? The University of Missouri (Columbia) is #1 in 4 polls (whatever that means). And Os had the balls to ask, "What's a Mizzou???" What's a Mizzou??? It's a large Midwest public landgrant university that's known for it's Journalism School and party reputation. But after having a slow start, the football team just beat KU for the #1 slot in the nation and will soon win (Lord willing and the creek don't rise) The Big 12 championship. I never did understand how a team with an almost perfect record still had to play for the championship, but if that's how they have to win, do be it. Next week it's the game against Oklahoma in San Antonio. Everyone better learn how to yell Z-O-U when the cheerleaders yell M-I-Z. Got it, Gary?? Some friends back home feel I am the major reason the football team is doing so well because it didn't happen until I moved here. Ok, I'll take the power!

So how was your Thanksgiving?? Mine was utterly wonderful, fantastic, spectacular. After some confusion as to who would be at the table, dinner went off without a hitch. And yes, the ex was there. My sisters are wonderful like that. Lots of laughs and good food. But more importantly, I got to spend some quality time with a very special person which gave me much to be thankful for. It was simply glorious. Couldn't have gone better.

Must go back to the gym. Feeling very fat. But my big work's fundraiser is this week. I will be temporarily insane this week. (No comment!) And I ran into the foot of the couch and probably broke a bone in my 2nd toe. Black and blue. It will be interesting looking for a pair of shoes to wear this week.

GO TIGERS!!!!!
