I know, I know. I have not blogged all month. Not sure why. Mostly not in the mood, some being too busy, and a lot from being exhausted. I still have not caught up from our vacation to Bama. I will blog about it next in a separate blog and tell you all about it. That trip was no R&R, it was all go, go, go! But we had a great time and I hope we get to do it again soon.
So since my last blog we have not been up to much. Doug is still working all the time, I have been really busy at work, and we have been having lots of fun writing papers for his English class. I made a B+ on my first one (thanks to Sara for reading it and giving me some pointers). Our next one is due in a week. I am so not looking forward to it. I can't believe I once enjoyed doing this!
Last weekend was a busy one. Saturday night we went out to dinner and the casino for Sarah A's B'day. The wait for Cheesecake Factory in the casino was over 3 hours! So we went to Olive Garden and waited a little less than an hour. We had the most cracked out waitress ever. She literally exhausted us from talking so fast and running around. But she got us in and out quickly and brought us everything we asked for. After our stimulating dinner we went to the sense (as in the 5) blowing, over stimulating casino. Between the people, the lights, and the music I had a hangover from that and not the alcohol. Ha! I found the bar, a chair right in front of the SC vs LSU game, and planted myself there for the second half. I made a few friends (one is a FL fan and his group was pulling for LSU, BOO!) and had a great time watching that game. Best part, I could yell at the TV and no one could hear me so I didn't look like a crazy person. :) We had a great time and met some cool people (one of her friends is from Buckhead and her and her fiance are huge Walking Dead friends. - that's our kinda people!).
Now to football. LOVING all the College Gamedays in the SEC, that #1 & #2 are once again SEC, that the SEC has dominated the rankings, and my home state is still ruling the NCAA football scene. Yeah, Auburn sucks a big one this year. But I still love them. I sport my colors every Friday at work and Saturday on the couch :) . As always, I think the top 25 has over rated, non-SEC teams that would be crushed by any of the top ranked SEC teams. I am still not on board the the two new teams added to the SEC but I am thrilled they are getting beat up by the real SEC teams. A&M is growing on me some but Mizwho has earned zero respect from me. (Thank god Auburn does not play them because I would die if we lost to them.) I would rather loose to Kentucky (who if we played would determine the worst team in the SEC) than loose to another tiger team. I am super excited, after missing two weekends of all day football, to be back on the couch today with no plans. Aug - Nov is Sundays only for me but up here with these NFL people they are Sat only. Go figure.
Last Sunday I got dumb and had the bright idea to meet a bunch of people from work at Buffalo Wild Wings. I had not seen some of them in months so I was excited to see them. But Buffalos on a Sunday in NFL country was NOT a good idea. They were packed and it was so loud. The Ravens game was over but the Redskins & Giants games were still on. The manager was really nice and worked really hard to get us a table in a decent amount of time. We had a great time and were still home for Walking Dead! Success!
Tomorrow we are heading to the Renaissance Festival with Doug's parents. It's the last weekend and they have not been yet this year. My goal is to eat fried food and get some jewelry, like always! The weather is suppose to be beautiful so we are super excited!
Now, USC! GO COCKS!
(Sorry Florida, but Spurrier has jumped you in my favorite SEC team rankings)
