Call 713 348 4996

3:58am CST Friday 1 December 2000

I found myself awake, with a realization of what I must do. It's not HUGE, and it won't land me in jail. In the tradition of ktru, I'm cutting up ktru bumper stickers to make a witty saying.

My new ktru bumper sticker will read:

ktru died.  call 713-348-4996 to complain!

That's the phone number of the office of the vice president of student affairs of Rice University.

5:27am

I have just finished the sticker. It looks great! Now I just need to put it on my car.

6:34am

Wow. That took longer than I thought. I have just now removed my old KTRU stickers from my bumper.

8:01am

Finished. It looks great. The sticker takes up the entire length of my bumper, as the digits of the phone number are pretty large. It's been exactly 24 hours since the station was murdered.

The end of my work day went a bit longer than expected, but I got the Ritz II survey totally done and "turned in," meaning it is live and ready to go on our live web server. Grreat!!!!

But the coolest thing today was getting to see Tiffany and Jason. Tiffany is down for the weekend from OKC, and they came up to see us and much dinner tonight. Conversation was sparse at first, with both of them apparently on the other's nerves. Dinner at Hobbit Hole proved to be wonderfully yummy.

On the way back home, my head was totally hurting and I was ready to send them home. But we hung out a bit and then it came to light that Tiffany had a hackey sack. Awww yeah. So Jason, Tiffany and I all laughed a lot and kicked the hackey sack around. That was tons of fun. The game mutated into tossing the sack oer the slowly spinning ceiling fan blades. Jason climbed on my back a few times when the sack got stuck.

Then the game progressed to "spin while looking up at the ceiling fan." The idea is that one spins so that the fan appears to be still and the world spins around. Jason got 19 revolutions at first. I did 23 after that. Then Tiffany did 27, but we halfway disqualified her since she spun too fast and then too slowly. Then Jason got the world record, and sput 74 revolutions at the same speed as the fan. He declared that 40 revolutions is a barrier, and after that the next 20 are free and easy. When he fell, he said, he didn't know where his legs were and wondered what his legs were hitting. His legs were hitting his own legs.

Then we played bouncy ball in the stairs. That game I totally love and am thankful that we got to play for so long.
