So VERY thankful

I was reminded today how good I have it. I have a roof over my head, food when I'm hungry, parents who love me and a good education to support me in the future. It's so easy to get caught up in our lives that we forget how lucky we are. I'm not an extremely religious person,  but we need to remember to thank God everyday for what we have and pray for those who are struggling. I'm going to do my best to not get caught up in my own minor issues and remember that there are those out there who have it worse. I won't be forgetting anytime soon how good I have it.

I also decided I needed to thank my parents more often. If it were not for them, who knows where I'd be. They've supported me for going on 24 years and I love them so much for making me who I am today.

So...

Last night was the Old Dominion University football game against the William & Mary Tribe. The boys put up a great game and deserved to win. They lost by just a few points and would have won if the referees did their job. But... I did end up buying my Ellie an ODU jersey...she looked so cute in it...I'll post pics later!

Oh well...The Redskins play today! I'm hoping for a win against the Texans...won't be extremely disappointed if they lose though...Houston's a tough team.

On another note...tomorrow is my first day of therapy with my little girl. I love her. She's so adorable. I'm looking forward to having fun this semester.

Oh! I have a new obsession...Kawaii!!

On a side note, the Old Dominion Monarchs play the William & Mary Tribe tomorrow in FOOTBALL! Yay! and it's gonna be on TV...even better!!!!  GO Monarchs!! (what kind of mascot is the tribe anyway? The answer: lame.)

Ok. Well it's my bedtime...GO MONARCHS!!

Story of My Life. At the current moment.

Keep drinkin' coffee
Stare me down across the table
While I look outside

So many things I'd say if only I were able
But I just keep quiet
And count the cars that pass by

You've got opinions, man
We're all entitled to 'em
But I never asked

So let me thank you for time
And try to not waste any more of mine
Get out of here fast

I hate to break it you babe
But I'm not drowning
There's no one here to save

Who cares if you disagree
You are not me
Who made you king of anything
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died
And made you king of anything

You sound so innocent
All full of good intent
You swear you know best

But you expect me to
Jump up on board with you
Right off into your delusional sunset

I'm not the one who's lost
With no direction oh
But you won't ever see

You're so busy makin' maps
With my name on them in all caps
You got the talkin' down just not the listening

And who cares if you disagree
You are not me
Who made you king of anything
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died
And made you king of anything

All my life
I've tried
To make everybody happy while I
Just hurt
And hide
Waitin' for someone to tell me it's my turn
To decide

Who cares if you disagree
You are not me
Who made you king of anything
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died
And made you king of anything

Who cares if you disagree
You are not me
Who made you king of anything
So you dare tell me who to be
Who died
And made you king of anything

Let me hold your crown, babe

Scrubs.

I don't think I've discovered anything (semi) recently as great a wearing scrubs. I have to wear them for grad school clinic (that or dress up which is no fun). They are super duper comfy and it feels like wear pajamas. They are seriously like the most comfortable thing you can wear in public. (excluding those people who think its okay to go out in pajamas to walmart.)

Anyway. That's all for tonight.


GLEE on DVD tomorrow!!!

WOOOOOOO!

THE REDSKINS BEAT DALLAS! WOOT! 

What a great day to be a 'skins fan!!

Ellie is still wearing her jersey this morning... =)

On a side note... Wild Olive has some pretty awesome printable bookmarks over on her blog. I love them!

Game Day!!

So. The day we've all been waiting for has arrived. Okay...so maybe we ALL haven't been waiting for this day but I sure have!!

THE REDSKINS OPENING DAY!!! 

Not only is it Opening Day, but the game is against DALLAS!!

We're gonna kick their butts!! HA!
Ok. Enough trash talk this early in the morning...Will post later.

Hail to the Redskins! =)

His name is Earl.

So. Earl's coming at us. Well...right now he is. All the news stations are saying "he's gonna turn East." Well, that hasn't happened yet. So we shall see. If he does turn East, we'll just get wind and rain. However, if he doesn't...Hello Hurricane! I'm kinda indifferent about the whole thing. I mean, I don't want death and destruction but...all this hype makes me want to see SOMEthing! My Ellie is ready for a hurricane. She's already under my desk/chair...

The good news is...I don't have class until next Wednesday. So I don't have to worry about making anything up or driving out in wind/rain, etc.

Ok. Time to go watch my favorite show, GILMORE GIRLS , and wait for the 11 am update on Earl.
