Whaaa?

Holy crap! That was a sweet Notre Dame win; I don't care if they were playing Hawai'i. I'll be the first to say it: we will DEFINITELY win a National Championship next year. Merry Christmas, dudes!

So maybe AZ basketball is having a rough year.

But on the other hand, our governor is now the head of Homeland Security. Whereas the governor of Illinois...

ND Prints

Hey dudes, sorry if this is redundant for some of you. I just finished this oil painting of the dome at ND. As you've probably noticed by now, it is f'ing amazing...so I made prints for the holiday season. There are two sizes available: 8"x10" ($30) and 11"x14" ($45) and they are ready to mail. If you are interested, let me know. I have a Paypal account set up, so it is as easy as pie to order and you'll get them in under a week. Also, if you know anyone else that may be interested or is a huge ND fan, please pass this message along. Thanks guys!

PS - Teddo, what a random/totally sweet vacation. I'm glad you befriended some lucky strangers. Any love connections?

What I did with my government loans

So I had my vacation month in November since we don't get summers off anymore, and enough extra money and time that I thought I would try to take a trip. Now that I have my passport and have never been to Europe.. I just picked Barcelona and found a cheap flight and a hostel and booked it. It also helped that I wasn't held back by a girl partying in my room who puked in a trash can. Sorry Sam, the blog has been rough on you recently, but I had to put it in. I was abroad 11 days, with 8 days in Barcelona and 3 days for a trip to Paris I booked while I was there. Since nobody else actually had the same vacation month or time to come with me, I just went by myself. I met plenty of random friends from Australia, Canadia, Germany, the UK, Chile, Colombia, Belgium, and all over.. Chris, I even met a Polack friend who I told should come to Chicago since there are probably more of his people there than in his city. I actually liked visiting Barcelona better than Paris, but they were both pretty awesome for a sheltered Indiana boy who had never been past Mexico or the Caribbean. Anyway I put up a bunch of pictures on facebook for whoever still goes on there.
