Day one: a very early return to glory

And so it begins. The alarm on my phone disrupts my all too short slumber for an important message: its time to fly. I obliged and by 540am my father and i began our departure to the sunshine state. Stopping in St. Louis for a connection, i have never been more social on 4 hours of sleep than I was on the two flights today. I met a friendly student from Edgewood in Madison who made the time fly as fast as the plane with her conversation. We also met an army ranger who swore like a sailor but was witty and had a funny accent. A quick cat nap thrown in there and we were off to the baggage claim. We had arrived.

Our hotel was right on a lake, which was separated only by our pool and jacuzzi. The hotel itself is crazy bare bones. No fridge, no microwave, but perfect for the price of 40 bones a slumber. This trip was done right from the start, on a budget.

After a swim and dinner at Joes Crab Shack where the puns ran rampant, we made our way to beautiful, and apparently too old, Amway Arena. Next season, it'll be replaced because the NBA requires teenage or younger arenas to house their teams. The matchup tonight was a strange exhibition match, as Orlando's opponent was....Moscow. Dad and i damn near fell asleep after the Magic went up 30 and put it's losers and rookies on the floor.

We night capped with Dippin Dots and passed out due to exhaustion. Day one complete.

If S-I-L-Y-M-I is all you want
Then I'm not sure how much in common we've got

"Once one of us has the nomination there will be a great effort to unify the Democratic party and we will do so, because, remember I have a lot of supporters who have voted for me in very large numbers and I would expect them to support Senator Obama if he were the nominee," She said.

"I will fight every moment of every day in this campaign to make sure Americans are not deceived by an eloquent but empty call for change."

FUCK YOU. LOOK AT THE TURNOUT.

believing blindly in yourself is the only way to be confident

Call my life's story a book.
It's the end of Chapter 5. Or, another way to look at it; It's the beginning of Chapter 6. The little red box inside the medium brown box has found it's way to my residence.



So the question then becomes: What can brown do for you?

The answer is that brown can effectively end one chapter of your life and start an entirely new one. If you feel so inclined, you could also ask the same question, substituting brown for $574.49.
