Somewhere Else

You know how it is with the traveling type. We're never really anywhere for long.

Bonus Post

I went to my first (and perhaps only) UGA football game yesterday. It was surprisingly fun. I managed to sneak a bottle of water in and our seats were great, and we won. It’s really more exciting when you win. The experience itself was neat, too, because it was homecoming so the stands were relatively full. There are apparently these traditional things, like cheers at certain points of the game, that were really fun to watch (although I still don’t understand what the fourth quarter thing is about—everyone holds up four fingers and waves them in time with the band—it’s kinda strange). Also, the fans spell Georgia and UGA a lot. More than you’d think. It makes me wonder if they’re proud of themselves for remembering how to spell it.

Anyway, I felt like I should post something to mark the occasion.

Also, while I’m here: some of the songs are in .m4a format, because I’m mostly an iTunes kid these days. It’s free, and it’s kind of fantastic. I wouldn’t lie to you. It organized all the music I’d downloaded in the past year in like, thirty seconds. And it helps that it works with the iPods. My only qualm is the .m4a thing—any CD you import using iTunes is written as .m4a instead of .mp3. And you know what? I don’t mind so much. It’s a good, free program. (Also, it’s not hard to convert them back to .mp3.)

    I will see if I can convert the files back to MP3, so I can play them.

    The football game thing sounds cool(I am able to say this without because I am now distanced from that stadium considerably by both time and space). Were you intoxicated? I hear they're much better when you're intoxicated.

    And, I just wanted to tell you this again, because I was laying awake in bed this morning thinking about it: the AIPTO thing is one of the best ideas you've ever had. I'm totally going to steal it from you next year, if you let me. Next time you do it with books or TV shows or something.

    You are the coolest, man.

    There are several typos in that last comment. Forgive me.
