'Touched'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I do not root for UF ever.
Nope. Just not done. And this is considering I loathe UM with a deep and abiding passion. Still remember the year they repainted the end zone bleachers in the Orange Bowl two days before our game with them. The end zone where the band sat. Biscayne green paint doesn't really go with garnet wool, you know?
Oh yeah that's not good. They were always mean or there was always a meanness to Gators but maybe they think the same thing about FSU.
There's always something.
With band, it was a little different-- yeah, there was rivalry, but so many of us had gone to school together, it was more a good-natured thing between us and UF. With UM, since they were a private school and there were so many kids from all over the place, they gave off the impression of being a lot more stand-offish.
ETA: 42-0, early third quarter. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout.
ETA 2: And Miami's defense is going to be kicking themselves over those missed tackles.
I have found the UM fans to be much more stand-offish. I've witnessed equal amounts of meanness for UF, FSU, UCF, USF...well, anyone who wasn't UM.
I was raised a Gator. Dad graduated from there in '59 with a degree in Metallurgical Engineering. (Mom is a Bulldog and we lived in Jacksonville at one point. They went to the game every year and still managed to stay together) The first sentence my dad taught me was "Bulldogs are Gator-bait."
My half-brother graduated from UF in '92 with a degree in Electrical Engineering. My half-sister graduated from FSU around '87 with a degree in Nursing. When I got accepted into FSU Theatre for my Master's and told my dad, he told me he had never been happier to have a 'Nole in the family.

Good!
So.
We got served with a three day notice to quit today. We haven't been able to pay rent, because the only check we have that can cover rent is S's SSD check, which she can't cash right now.

Oh fuck Sean.
Oh, dammit, Sean. Damn, damn, damn.
Are there any social workers, social services, anything like that on staff at the hospital? They should be able to intervene in some way--either find a way to force your landlords to wait or find a source of emergency funding, or something. If your current circumstances don't qualify for catastrophic hardship, I can't imagine what would.
I'm so sorry, and so enraged for both of you.
