This week flew by because I was super-busy at work. School starts a week from Wednesday but I'll be on vacation starting next Friday, so next week will be even more hectic.

Columbus is currently a media circus due to the OSU vs. USC game taking place tomorrow night. ESPN is set up down at the stadium and the traffic coming home was terrible. Most of the official tailgate parties start between 8am and 10am tomorrow giving people 12 full hours to get drunk before the game begins at 8pm. The entire city becomes deserted during football games, so I take advantage of the opportunity to go to the grocery or see a movie. I listen to the game on the radio as I drive around so I know what's going on and squeeze my activities in before it ends.

When I had told non-football-fans that astronaut John Glenn 'dotted the I' at last week's game, some people didn't know what I meant. Here is a video of the marching band doing their famous 'script Ohio' formation, complete with 'i dotting,' traditionally done by a suzaphone player, as seen here.
