Long week to say the least.

Severe weather. Sick kids. College I attended destroyed.

But alas, the weekend is here and I get some rest and relaxation.

So what’s on the agenda?

Disinfection, Tiger basketball and some rest. I can’t go help at UU because the kiddos are sick. As bad as I want to go to Jackson, my kids need me more.

Good times. Good times indeed.

My heart is still heavy from the destruction that my college campus received.

I am in touch with some of the professors I know up there and am hoping that a weekend trip to help pick up some of the stuff in Jennings Hall (where the ComArts building is) will be possible. Right now, they are restricting access to the campus.

Just thought I would pass along a few links I have found helpful in finding out what is going on.

• UUEmergency
• Photos of the damage
• Various blogs of the students
• The Jackson Sun

Pray for Union.

My alma mater got absolutely destroyed last night in the tornadoes that ripped through the area.

It was really hard to watch the images roll into the newsroom last night of a place that is so close to my heart.

Especially pictures like the one below of the dorms where I used to live.

Keep Union University in your prayers.

Yep. I just made up that word.

It means this post is going to have absolutely no focus whatsoever.

Let me apologize for the lack of activity on here this weeked. But don’t blame me. Blame Comcast and their internet only wanting to work for me sporadically. This after they came out last week and replaced what they said was the problem (the cable modem). Yep. It’s Comcastic, alright. Comcastically bad.

Also, if you keep up with my Flickr sight, you might have noticed some random pictures popping up from time to time. This is because I have opted to practice my photog creativity by joining a couple of Flickr groups. One is called Flickr Group Roulette and the other is called 365 days.

Basically, the premise for Flickr Group Roulette is that they pick a different theme a day and everyone within the group takes a picture to fit the theme. Over the last week it has ranged from bubbles to phooning.

The 365 days group involves posting one picture of yourself every day for a year. Considering I am in the process of losing weight, I thought it might be a fun way to look back at the transformation in a year and get creative in the process.

Now if you see wierd pictures from time to time, you will know the reason.

Oh. And if you aren’t on Flickr. You really should be. Just sayin’.
