Happy 3rd?

Not really. I wonder if the majority of the population is working today. It certainly doesn't feel like it.

I know I'm at work... and it sucks.

Motivation & Renovation

I haven't been the slightest bit motivated to start working on my house. I guess the first thing it takes is money, which I don't have a whole lot of at this point. I'll get there, eventually. I just don't feel like spending a zillion days working down in my basement trying to filter through twenty seven years of junk that I've collected. Bleh.

On the other hand, I *was* motivated to redesign my blog. You likey?

Miss me?

So, you may have thought that I died from heart break becuase my Lady Jayhawks were unable to handle the pressure. Never fear, I'm still here.

Things have been mad crazy lately. Brynn was promoted at work and now she's "Meeting Girl" and constantly in meetings. She leaves early for work and comes home late. We bought a new truck (SUV) so we've been enjoying that quite a bit. I finally got rid of my old Honda Accord. It was quite sad. Right after we got the truck we had a huge hail storm come through and guess what? That's right, hail damage on the new vehicle. We also got quite a bit of hail damage on our house so we had to turn in some claims to the insurance company for the roof, siding and gutters. Fun stuff.

We've been hanging out quite a bit with our good friends R and D. They have a little girl named Ella who is the cutest thing EVER. We baby sit all the time and silently wish she was ours. LOL She looooves airplanes so we took her to the Lawrence Air Field and she got to sit in one. She's such a great kid!


Other than that... we just hang. We're getting ready to do some major renovations to our house so this will probably be the only post anyone sees in a while. I'll try to be better.

The Big Game

I think I've talked about this topic before but I'm bored at work today so I thought I would write a lil sumpin sumpin.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a HUGE college basketball fan. I'll watch any kind of college b-ball no matter if it is women's or men's.

Anyway... my favorite college out there is Kansas University. They have so much rich basketball history, the fans are phenominal, the players are great (for the most part) and the traditions are amazing. Brynn and I have season tickets to the women's basketball games so we've been supporting the team all season long. They started out at 12-0 and made KU B-Ball history with the best start in women's basketball for the school and then they took a turn for the worse. They lost several away games, they looked flat and appeared as if they had just run out of gas.

Now, I'm a die hard fan and I'll stick behind my girls. Brynn and I went up to K-State (our in-state rival) and watched our team basically fall apart for the first half and the majority of the second. Something in them sparked and they came back to cut a huge lead to a small one and there was a *slight* chance that we might be able to pull out a win and break a eight game losing streak against the 'Cats. No such luck, they beat us and we walked away with another defeat.

Tonight, the Wildcats come to Allen Fieldhouse and I think our girls are ready. It's going to be a tough game but I KNOW that we can pull out the win and break the losing streak against them. K-State has lost four straight games and we have won two of the last couple that we have played. It is Senior night tonight and it's going to be tough saying goodbye to three great players that have played their heart out for a new coach.

This team is on the way, with all the struggles they have gone through this season, they will step into the next one with confidence and a chance to keeping the ball rolling on something great.

Rock Chalk Jayhawk - Go KU!

Tour Dates

The Dave Matthews Band announced their Spring & Summer tour dates this morning. My friend Shayna e-mails me first thing this morning and says "We're going to St. Louis and KC, you comin" (or something like that). Oh yeah, we're SO totally in. So... May 30th we'll be in St. Louis for show #1, then travel home on the 31st and see them in KC for show #2. I'm way excited!

New Toy

I've done it... I've become a sheep, I've crashed under the techno pressure. I bought an iPOD. I do not regret it and I am in complete love. This thing is absolutely beautiful. So sleek, so black... so shiny.. Yummy.
