This is my absolute 100% favorite time of the year... the air is full of hope and dreams, dreams of a national championship and hopes of beating Michigan. The bars are full of freshmen and beer. My head is full of bad decisions, many of which I will talk myself into and out of before the season is over.
For the first game, mother nature and the elements are on our side. The sun is always out and there is no need for jackets. Everyone is a good mood and the street meat is all around. People that detest each other in real life get along on game day. That's right friends, put those differences aside and cheer on the home team!
I'm excited for all that, no doubt about it but I am also excited because now not only am I checking out the talent on the field, but off the field as well. I'm ready to tackle my own tight end... operation "GLBO" is in full swing. There are so many new and challenging options for this fall. I can barely contain my excitement!
If I see you tomorrow, please except this apology in advance. And as always, GO BUCKS!!!

Ohhh the New Year
I love the start of the New Year. I really do. Even though I still tend to think of the year as an elementary child, you know starting in September and ending in June. And the rest of the time is when I should be on vacation. As my dad likes to say, "It's hell to get old."
My NYE was a tad different this year, for starters, I wasn't with a certain Asian. And for seconders, I wasn't in Chicago. And for thirders, I didn't make a fool outta myself. (See, starting the new year off acting like a mature, classy, lady who is full of grace.)
I have a good feeling about 2009 and being 28 this year. Dang. 28. I gotta let that one sink in for a sec...
Ok, that's a little better. Ok, so for my new year's resolutions... shall we begin?
* Improve posture (currently doing that as we speak!)
* Blog more (yeah, yeah, Jan. was a bust but in my defense, it twas my birthday month.)
* Send more birthday cards. On time.
* Call my grandparents more.
* Complain less.
* Listen to more classical music.
* Take more walks.
* Do more with my lil Sis.
I usually like to have 7 so I think I'll stop with 8. I didn't put my usual "work out more" and "smoke/ drink less" because I'm actually doing those things right now. Shocking, I know. Sometimes, I don't even recognize myself. Or maybe it's just been a looooong time since I've felt so much like my old self. I feel like I'm having an Oprah "a-HA" moment.
