Live! In Marquette! Nate Doggy Dogg!

Big announcement for all of you Marquette types that have been saying, "You know? There's just something missing since Nate left Marquette." Well, I'll be making my triumphant return this weekend, probably Saturday for the fireworks extravaganza. I hope to see most of my Marquette people. You know who you are.

This was made possible by the EIGHT DAYS I have before my next day of work. Yeah. One week plus a day. I'm beginning to reconsider my place in the AFLAC universe. Then in three consecutive days, I have a meeting in Green Bay, a computer course in Madison, and a regional meeting in Appleton. Yeah, the great American dream.

So, I have a quick question. Five o'clock is the busiest time of day for a grocery store. Most people are just getting off of work. Dinners need to be made for the ungrateful kids. Beers need to be purchased to drown away the hatred for the asshole boss. Everyone needs something around this time, and the local grocery store is the perfect place to get it. So why are there TWO god damned checkouts open!!! I'm not one to bitch too much about lines, but when you have day after day of empirical evidence to build on, would it kill you food stores to say, "Hark! Perhaps we need a couple of more associates on the floor." Grrrr.

That's about it for tonight. I have to go to Appleton in the morning...and that's about it. Oh, and thank you Jamie and Ash for youur kind words of encouragement for my budding writing career. I guess you should never underestimate the writing talents of a guy who got a B- in Rhet & Comp. Thanks again.

Pornstar #1: Prom can be a time when you might be tempted to have sex. I lost my virginity on prom night. How about you?
Pornstar #2: I was ten.
Pornstar #1: Oh.

I disagree completely about you having the long line idea first. I totally posted it first. Yours says 9:something pm. Mine was earlier. Jaime-1 Nate-0
As for your triumphant return to the MQT, perhaps you should do it when I'm not making my triumphant departure from the same city.
I hope you keep your compound well heated. Things could get really ugly otherwise. Now I know why my mom told me to take Home-Ec...

This is Julie---Get a hold of Grant and me on Sunday. I know that you said that you are going to be in Marquette on Saturday, you didn't say how long you were staying, but maybe we could meet up with you sometime in RR or Esky before your drive back to Green Bay. I know that he misses you (and so do I) and we would love to see you...Definitely have to schedule a Green Bay visit sometime in the near future.
