Headache of suckiness...

Well, I think I'm officially suffering from a migraine headache. Usually I'm fairly lucky in the sense that I only get headaches after a long and stupid night of drinking. In this case, I'm thinking its a mix of a really jacked up sleeping cycle and stress over my first pharmacology test.

You might be thinking, so Mr. Reset Button, how did you do on the test? I think this can be best summized by this simple graphic...

Unfortunately I mean that as the a verb "to bomb" as opposed to the adjective "da bomb". There were quite a few drugs, methods of actions, adverse effects, blah, blah, blah to remember and learn and I'm quite sure I didn't do very well on the test (atleast as well as I had hoped). I think I've tempered my expectations a bit when it comes to this class and would be happy with a "B" grade. Considering there is a requirement that you have to have at least a 70% average on all 4 tests, this indicates to me that this has become a "weedout" class.

Oh well, at least I now know how the professor likes to make her tests and hopefully I'll be better prepared for the next slew of exams. I just need to get into a little better routine on how I want to study the material.

I am happy that it is autumn again. I absolutely love fall weather. There's just something awesome about a clear, sunny fall afternoon and evening. It was a fantastic 70 degrees today with a slight breeze. It will soon be time to break out the light coats and scarves. Sweet!

Also, with the turning leaves comes the ole'pigskin. And thankfully, decent football is back in Missouri. With the KC Chiefs and Mizzou Tigers still undefeated, I'm in football hog heaven. I don't expect either team to remain undefeated for the whole season but it should be an entertaining one.

Oh, in regards to a previous post I did recognize another strange (though probably not uncommon) habit I have. I'm pretty sure I've been doing this one since early childhood so I'm sure there was something I could blame in my youth to cause me to do this. What is this you ask?

Well, I have the tendency to shed clothing like a snake. No, no, I don't mean in public for your voyeuristic pleasures, I mean when I get home. I tend to ease out of my "outdoor clothes" and get into something more comfortable. Often, I leave the dirty clothes on the floor, though they are corralled relatively neatly beside the hamper.


Ohh, is that snake wearing some designer Burberry scarf? Nah, its a knock off, you can tell the pattern is a little off.

I'll end this blog entry with a question that was posed to me by a friend on the West Coast.

Ques: "Reset Button, what do you do on your free time out in the Midwest?"

Answer: Demolition Derby!!!

Ok, so I really haven't been to a demolition derby yet, but it is on my bucket list. I don't know how much more awesomely descriptive this picture could be of the Midwest.

Guy missing some teeth? Check!

Guy rocking a mullet? Check!

Guy celebrating 2nd place finish? Check!

Naming your demolition car "Grandma Toot Toot? Check!

I must admit though, I wouldn't mind playing bumper cars with out those pesky rubber bumpers and with real vehicles.

Oh well, I'd better try to get some rest. I've been feeling a bit feverish so I should probably try and get a few more zzz's tonight.

Check yes Juliet, are you with me?
Rain is falling down on the sidewalk,
I won't go until you come outside.
