first day Struggle




so everything was going pretty smoothly - we got in, hung out, took a nap, then decided on a sweet place for lunch. It was a nice sit down pizza place about 20min walk that was very affordable - markham and i sampled the quilmo (argentine beer) and it was alright.

We get back, commence the second nap of the day, then decide to drag ourselves awake for frisbee. After a really long bus ride we get to Ciudad Universitaria and find some really nice people who we are ready to lay some pwnage upon. Anyhow a couple points of domination later we are both sidelined. I incurred a concussion - which was the weirdest crap ever, the whole day seemed like a dream trying to remember at first, and it was just weird/scary not remembering everything clearly. About 15 minutes later i remember everything, and when we get off the bus going home i am feeling solid. Nikki (EMT) also checked me out a bit.

Markham strained his back (lower back) which had been bothering him a couple weeks ago - it was bothering him so he stopped playing and nikki carried his backpack home. Anyhow we are super happy nikki is here to take care of us - and glad to be back in the apartment.

I think its gossip girl, food, and relaxation for the next couple hours before bed.

We also met this girl who is from memphis and goes to UTK with rose and notor.

  1. Nikki, we owe you.
    Nicky DO NOT hit your head again even lightly during the next week. There is a serious problem with a second hit, even if insignificant.
    Markham we miss you. Alex has a very serious person interested in his movie.

  2. Gossip Girl is so bad. Please, for your sake and mine, stop watching it. Sounds like a decent start, watch him with those naps though, markham espcially if he starts calling them Siestas

  4. Glad Nikki is there.... first day and already a concussion Nicky???? Seriously? I mean Narky always has a little injury to speak of, but I'm glad your lower back is feeling better by day 2. This blog is going to be my summer entertainment...
