Wednesday Morning Meandering

I have been uber busy and regret not blogging yesterday. I had so much to discuss and it all escapes me at the very moment I decided to put fingers to keyboard. Alas, I will not be deterred and will share my random thoughts regardless. Labor Day, Football, and Hurricane’s oh my!

Football, Mon Amour – I have discussed this on many occasions but it is finally happening! Tomorrow is the start of the college football season!!!!! South Carolina vs Vanderbilt will have my undivided attention.  Welcome back SEC football, you are the international boyfriend I plan to marry! You stay with me on a 5 month visa then return to your home country. I love you so much while you’re here and miss you when you go. It leaves a hole in my heart so big it could fit a football field.  Your sister NFL supports me through the pain, reminding me of you and all your amazing glory. But alas her Visa expires too and then I am left to pick up the pieces of my broken heart! I guess this is what I get for a long distance love affair! Welcome back my sweet, I will cherish you for as long as we have!!!! While you are here we will have ups and downs (wins and losses), but we can spend quality time together, dress up, and celebrate with friends. The pets are all ready for your return, especially UGA our Bulldawg! I’m not sure what he did to your Gator (it was probably well deserved that thing is a nuisance)! We welcomed some new neighbors since your last visit and I look forward to them meeting you; they’re from Missouri and Texas. They might be overwhelmed at first but that’s expected you have that effect on people! I did try to date other sports but couldn’t bring myself to ruin what we have; it’s not worth it! I’m sorry it won’t happen again, I love you too much to lose you over something foolish. Let me make it up to you, how about a date September 8th? Je t'aime. Aller les chiens (I love you, Go dawgs)!

In all seriousness I’m ready to drink beer and cheer for my team! Goooooooo Dawgs, Sic’em Woof Woof Woof Woof!

Labor Day Lock Up - I have no clue what to do for Labor Day! What I do know is this weekend I will attend a wedding. Congrats J & B, not Jay-z and Beyoncé people they are already married and clearly not friends of mine. I will celebrate my Grandmother’s birthday from afar *sad face* Happy 90th Grandma! I will take my first knife fighting lesson on Sunday! Oh yeah I’m gonna be a professionally trained badass! Then I have to actually figure out what I’m doing for Labor Day! I vote sleeping because it is my only day off this weekend (even though it is a Monday). I would love to grill but I don’t currently own one and I would never, never grill on my apartment “community” grills! I have a sneaking suspicion that they are never cleaned and often used inappropriately. I don’t know how one inappropriately uses a grill but I’m sure my neighbors have found a way. 

Cough Cough – I hope I’m not getting sick but my throat is itchy and I am congested.  You already know how I feel about being sick! So Airborne is on deck but seriously, ain’t nobody got time for that!   Tonight I will get some good sleep and hope for the best.

Hurricane Season - as Hurricane Isaac continues to wobble through Louisiana, I pray for the safety and security of my family and the residence of Louisiana and Mississippi being affected by the storm. They are projecting this bastard will stir up trouble and flooding through Thursday! No mandatory evacuations were ordered inside New Orleans, I know many people are riding this Cat 1 out. Stay strong folk, mix up some daiquiris, put on a pot of gumbo and let the good times roll!  I’m with you in spirit and in wallet (gas out here is $3.94 for unleaded). If you need a hurracation my sleeper sofa is available!

I have to get ready for some meetings, duty calls. But now you know what was on my mind this morning! You may now return to your regularly scheduled program… Have a great hump day people!
