  • Opening Warning: After being cooped up in a truck for 80 hours plowing snow, I have a lot of random bits to share!



    1. My professor came to class yesterday 25 minutes late and DRUNK. So much for giving my class presentation, we passed him in the hallway on our way out, and I immediately saw his hair and clothes were disheveled, and his speech was incoherent. "I don't know what happened....I thought I left with enough time...I'm really sorry guys..." this all coming from a human resources professor who tells us about substance abuse in the workplace. The demonstration wasn't necessary, and your boozy breath was more than I needed! Perhaps he needs to hit bottom with his alcoholism, but he really needs help, and he has to stop messing up other people's lives, grades, and his own! Good thing I don't go to Marquette, or I would be suspended and fined $15,000 for blogging about this!

      So my dilemma is what to do! Should I say something to him? Before or after our final exam on Thursday? To the administration to wake him up? I'm at a loss... My other dilemma is how to fit my work truck into the carwash.





    2. Nobody wants to hear about a work day, but I had a highlight today! I turned the corner and saw a gaggle? of turkeys in the lawn with three of them climbing a crab tree! I didn't know they could do that! New hiring prospects for Crawford Tree!





    3. In accordance with tradition, allow me to bid a formal farewell to the old Truck 68 and warmly welcome its replacement. =)





    4. For anyone wondering, millions I'm sure, this is my main plow vehicle. The Sherman Tank is still on backorder. Just picture me at the wheel with Mateo riding shotgun and both of us jamming to 104.7 - Racine's Spanish radio! Me gusta mucho. =)





    5. We had a little jam session at Chi Alpha last night, or should I say this morning. It was really good! Followed up by donuts in the parking lot as I was trying to plow!





      On the right is Bree, our wonderful bassist!


    6. Remember that there are people who can't afford warm clothes or Christmas presents for their kids! My amazing mom literally saved trucks of clothes and toys from the landfill and washed it and sorted it by age group and gender for me to drop off at a Catholic ministry house called Casa Maria. Surprising, when I walked in, the house smelled faintly like a Lutheran house. Just thought I'd provide the correlation

      It's down by Marquette (I say that about anything in that general vicinity) and had a cool little sign I know someone will really like. (Click it bigger)





    7. Check out the new Xanga features coming our way on Marc's page. Naturally, I couldn't help but weigh in, especially if I'm on the first page - but Tyler nabbed that top spot!


    8. Man, I love having a camera phone! I just realized why no one is calling me...my phone was off the whole time I was writing this entry... Well, I'm sure they're wondering when I'm coming over to Joe's birthday party! Before you sign off of Xanga today, be sure to say happy birthday to the boy - he's 15 on Sunday!
