DISCLAIMER:

I love my dog, football college is better than the NFL, coffee, wine, men and lots of swear words!! Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one. These are mine. If you are going to be mean keep yours to yourself.

Dear Santa

Hey Santa
Can you get one of these Peyton Manning ornaments for me for Christmas? Pretty please?? 
I wasn't fast enough last year to get one from Hallmark!! 
I have been a very good girl. 
Ok well maybe a little naughty but I have been very nice, sweet and thoughtful that has to count for something!! 🎄🎁



Too soon?

Is it too soon start counting down to next years football season? Is it too soon start planning what games I want to go to? 
It's black Sunday. Tomorrow is the most brutal day in college football. Coaches will be fired right and left. It will be interesting to see where everyone lands. 
Hoping that the friends who are in limbo land at a great school. 
And in case you were wondering....

Frustrations of an overly tired football fan

It's no secret that I tend to be a tiny bit passionate about football. Today I'm passionately pissed. 
I attended a football game last night that left me feeling pissed off, frustrated and disgusted with the state of college football. Now granted I am writing this on less than 3 hours sleep. I'm stuck at the airport and can't get out so needless to say my attitude might need a bit of an adjustment. BUT I'm going to rant anyway because I can. And I don't have enough followers to worry about pissing anyone off. 
First off the visiting team was classless and very rude. Which not something I would have expected from this team and this particular head coach. 
The players talked trash the entire game to the fans in the stands. 
I tend to hold grudges against teams that beat the teams I am cheering for. 
I am officially holding a grudge against this team. I can not stand that type of behavior from football players. 
Perhaps I will compose a letter to that head coach as well. He is classier than what his players portrayed last night. Or so I thought. 

Second, the unbelievably bad calls by the officiating crew killed any momentum.  We had some offensive issues. But seriously the coaches have to game plan against a team and the officials? 
Yes, I have seriously composed a letter to the SEC commissioner about the officiating crew. 

If I am this frustrated as a fan how frustrated are the football coaches? 
How frustrated is the team? 
How does a head coach not blow up and start throwing down? I was ready to jump that fence and take out an official and an opposing player or two. 
I have never seen such blatant and biased bullshit calls in my life. 
Oh wait.... 
Yes, I have! This same crew doing the same home team game about a month ago. 
SO FUCKING STUPID! 
*AAARRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH*
How do these people continue to screw up at their ONE & ONLY job and still have a job?
If the average person messed up as much as these officials they would be unemployed. 
The officials need to be revamped and perhaps they need to become non conference specific. 
I will keep you posted on Greg Sankey's response. 
I'm sure I will get immediate action and response. (Yes, that is written in sarcastic font). 

Side note: 2 opposing team fans are sitting next to me and we are discussing the game. They were highly impressed with our defense. They were as disgusted with the officials as much as me. 
They are slowly chipping away chipping away at that grudge. Maybe. 

Sorry for the multitude of grammatical mistakes. But whatever I'm pissed. And tired.

Friends who love you...


Disclaimer .... I'm not a writer so this will be full of errors. I write like I talk. All over the place and in run-on sentences. 
Enjoy! 

Friends are family we pick for ourselves.
I have picked a fantastic family of friends throughout my life.  
Most of the friends in my life have been here for 12+ years. Some longer. Very few shorter than that. 
When you connect with a person on a level where you can talk about anything and everything it is wonderful. 
When you can be yourself and be a dork and they still love you unconditionally it is a great thing. 
I can't say I have a buttload of friends like that. But the ones I have are amazing.  
I have a bunch of acquaintances. 
But true friends that I could call at the drop of a hat and they would do anything and everything for me. Those are my favorite friends. 
I love those friends with every fiber of my being. 

One of those friends likes to give me a talking to every 6 months or so about being single. 
He seems to think that I need to find someone to keep me company. 
He thinks I need to start looking for someone. It's not that I'm not looking.   I am just very happy where I am. 
I enjoy my independence. I like being able to do what I want whenever I want. 
He doesn't want me to end up alone. 
The fact that he even cares enough to say something makes my heart smile. 
But it also makes me sad. 
Makes me wonder if I am doing something wrong in life. 
I don't believe I will end up alone.
I believe I will end up with one of my current friends. I don't know which one. But I think at some point I will end up with a friend who we just start hanging out with. We like to spend time together. We like to do the same things. We travel together. Maybe it will eventually cross over into something more. Maybe it will become sexual. Maybe it will become a full-blown relationship. Or maybe we'll just be best friends from now until the end of time. I'm fine with whatever way it works out. 
I don't need (don't even think I want) to get married to feel like my life is complete. I clearly don't need to have kids to feel like my life is complete. I can be cool Aunt Kate to all my friend's kids. 
My life feels really good right now. 
Most of my family drives me crazy. Isn't that their job? 
I have these fantastic friends who love me as unconditionally as I love them. 
I have a very satisfying sex life. 
I have a growing business that allows me to do so many cool projects. And keeps me busy but is as flexible as I want it to be. 
I have the ability to travel freely about the country for very little money. 
My life pretty much ROCKS! 

So, to my precious and wonderful friend... I hear YOU!  
I know what you are saying. 
I know you think I'm stubborn and didn't listen. But I took every word to heart. 
I love you and cherish you for being a good and true friend. 
Thank you for loving me and caring about me enough to say something. 
You are the BEST!!! 
You are correct we are all broken but we are great people. Also, we deserve to have great people in our lives.
Thank you for always making time for me!! 
XOXOXOXO

Home Ownership

Today I am shopping for a new hot water heater!
YAY exciting!! Said no one EVER!!
Owning a home is GREAT if you have a lot of shit - you have plenty of room for that shit.
Owning a home is great because you don't have upstairs neighbors who do the dance of the baby elephants everyday.
Owning a home sucks because there is ALWAYS something that needs to be fixed or updated.
There is ALWAYS a project to work on.
I clearly just need to get married so I have a built in handy man or a second income to afford a handy man.
I also need that man to put up Christmas lights. Rake and bag the leaves (cause I am afraid of the stupid snakes I always encounter when I do this task).
So, I guess I need to win the lottery. Or find a sugar daddy. Or marry someone for convince. Preferably someone who travels a lot and stays out of my way. I really ENJOY my freedom and independence.
Until one of those happens I will continue to work my ass off doing stuff I love to take care of the house I love.

College football



As you know I love love love college football. Some weekends I feel like the biggest jinx. I feel like every team I am rooting for loses. And it's a kick in the nuts... if I had nuts. 
Not everyone I was rooting for lost. But every game I paid attention to and emotionally invested in. Lost. :'-(
I'm sorry if I am the jinx. I feel like football shouldn't hate me this much. 
I love football unconditionally and it continues to break my heart. 
Ah to be a fan. Next week. It will be a weekend of wins all around. (Fingers crossed)

An old song: 


ENJOY!! 

Long time no blog....

So, I was told recently I need to start blogging.
I miss it. I have a lot going on. I have an opinion that no one really cares about but its always fun to share, just ask all the anonymous assholes who troll and leave rude opinionated comments.
Do I need to reintroduce myself?
I am Kate.
I love my wiener dog Coach Landry.
I used to go to Starbucks EVERY day. Now I brew Starbucks at home. (my step mom spent a week with me and bought coffee maker- LIFE CHANGING).
I love love love football. College ball is currently my OBSESSION. The NFL has grown tedious and tired for me. BUT I still watch my favorite players.
I drink more wine than I used to. It is YUMMY!
I blog like I talk. In short bursts or long run on sentences. I suck at grammar. and math. There will be NO math in this blog. But can someone explain why they have started teaching common core math? WHAT IN THE FUCK WAS WRONG WITH OLD MATH? The new shit??? UMMMM NO THANK YOU!!
I still live in Texas.
I finally bought myself a camera. I like to take pics of pets and football stadiums.
I still refinish furniture.
I have been traveling a TON to football games (see next blog on who I am cheering for and why).
I will try to be fairly regular on the blog thing.
WARNING I am getting older and losing what little filter I had left!!
Congrats to CLEMSON, LSU, alabama, and ohio state on the FIRST ranking of the college play off poll.
You can tell who I like if they care capitalized or not....
Hoping LSU beats bama.
Hope my Golden Gophers beat the living shit out of ohio state this weekend as well.
Happy Football Season!
XOXO
Kate
