i didn't want to hurt you, baby, but you're pretty when you cry


Nebraska 27, Missouri 12.  At the end of the third quarter, it was Nebraska 0, Missouri 12.  Yes, 20 points in about 3 minutes, then another 7 in the last minute to top it off.  It ain't over till it's over, bitches!

So can we call it a truce, Mizzou?  Some of you fans seem to be ok (I'm still undecided on the players...).  We can join you hating on Kansas, and you can stop accusing our players of spitting on your players/ throwing beer cans on our players/ etc.? 

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming: I've been out with a killer cold (NOT swine flu!) this week and actually took 2 days off work.  I hope to start submitting again this weekend though!  Other than that I've been studying for the GRE and trying to break up with a guy (see title, again).  That's going... sloppily.  Hopefully progress will be made on all fronts over the weekend.  Play all four quarters, baby.

nah, still the food poisoning. but i thought it was getting better, and now it's worse, which worries me.

oh, wow. that's cool, i guess. anyway, yeah, phone break-ups are generally bad, but if it's casual dating i guess it's not as big a deal. but it's something i definitely put a taboo on, like lying or cheating. less personally, it's just one of those things, like 'people deserve to hear it to their face,' and some people get really upset about being treated like they aren't worth that.

Do you take antibiotics for food poisoning?

Yes, well, turns out people are not as cool as their resumes :P Seriously though, I had high hopes in the beginning. 'Nyway - it's better than text messaging or email, right? I'm just not sure how I'd do it in person. Like, at the end of a two hour dinner, that seems a little awkward. Even more awkward to do it at the beginning.

No, an IV. wrote an entry about it if you missed it.

better, i guess. it will always be awkward. there is no 'nice and friendly' way to break up with someone, and that's how it should be. i would still do it in person.

also, if i seem delusional, is probably b/c i haven't really eaten since wednesday (it's sunday here).

i guess i'd say: i'd only break up with someone on the phone if i felt it was the right thing to do, not b/c i wanted an easy way out.

I see - I haven't checked LJ all week because of my illness. That sucks though.

Yeah, I suppose you're right.

I take it back. one of the boxes of chinese meds seems to be an antibiotic. "Levofloxacin is a synthetic chemotherapeutic agent used to treat severe or life-threatening bacterial infections."

Hope so too! Keep up the porridge and fluids.
