I wrote a little song earlier ... that I was going to post ... but reading it back it was lame as hell and I just couldn't hit the "post & publish" button ... but it was sung to Joy to the World ... but it was more of a celebration of my monthly visit ... 10 days ago we had a scare and all I have been waiting for was Aunt Flo to visit ... it was all I could think about ... I think it was the biggest stress right now ... I had trouble even writing in the blog cause every time I sat down I thought ... "what if I have to make that decision" ... and since my mind was totally clouded with that I couldn't write about anything else ...


so now that I have danced around the house like I was Mary Katherine Gallagher in "Superstar" I feel much better ...


I am sad that the University of Kansas lost tonight ... but it brings back memories of a crazy time ...


In 1991 I was going to school at KU ... Kris, Sean and I lived on Mass Street above the Mass Street Deli [it is now part of the restaurant] and KU had made it to the final game ... like tonight they lost but the town went crazy ... so being 21 and drunk we had to head up to campus to see what was going on ... it was a sea of people ... just crazy ... and the 3 of us got separated ...


somehow ... and this would only happen to me ... some guy smashed a beer bottle over my head and knocked me out ... I was lucky ... in a sea of drunk people it would have been easy to be trampled ... but some nice guy picked me up and carried me out of the thick of things ... and sat with me till I came to ... and sat some more till miraculously Kris wandered by and found me ...


after sobering up the next day I went to the health center to make sure I was ok ... I was having trouble walking straight ... turns out the crack on the head threw off my inner ear and for about 2 months I would randomly fall down ... walk at a total angle ... and have trouble standing from a sitting position ... it was often quite humorous ... I remember showing up to a party sober and falling on my way up the lawn to uproarious laughter and hearing ... "dude Liz is already drunk" ...


ahhhhhhhh good times ...
