Sandels, Cd's and an Essay

My three years at Michigan State University had more influence on me than I realized. The fact that I decided to wear sandels today, reminds me of how much of a spartan I really am. Ok, to some of you this probably doesn't make much sense, but to the many of us, who have witnessed the hundreds of guys walking around campus in sandels on a cool or rainy fall/winterish day can give credit to what I'm saying. Why do we, spartan michiganders refuse to dress according to the weather. Today it is raining, it's raining hard, in fact there is a flood watch in effect. But I decided to go out in shorts and sandels ... in a white t-shirt.

I went out to do some shopping ... after a trip to the library, Borders, Bert's (CD Store) and Barnes and Nobles I returned home with an old friend. The Sunday's Static and Silence CD (1997), I use to own it .... and decided to buy it again! I really wanted to listen to it, becuase I heard the song Horses on in the movie "Camp". Even though horses isn't on this CD, it reminded me how much I used to love listening to the Sundays. Now I'm inside (my apartment), with a warm cup of coffee trying to warm up and dry off. I quickly tore of the CD wrapper, struggled a bit with that annoying plastic side piece of tape ... put in the CD. It's funny how music puts me in the mood to write.


So today ... I had two items on my list, finish my essay for my Grad School app , and the other was look for houses/condos. I haven't done any of them .. .. ok, well I really want to finish at least one ... so I am going to write my essay..
