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) 

Rob Baird

I fell in love with this mans voice July 2012....

An old song:

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

Life Lessons ..

Life Lesson for all the 20 somethings out there. 
For some reason I have a ton of you in my life. I must be in your life to teach you something so I will do my best to teach you everything I know. 
Maybe you can skip all the bullshit I had to muddle thru.
And thank you all for keeping me young... I don't feel my age... I feel about 28! 

You need to figure out who you are and be comfortable with YOU!
As I get older I realize that I am more comfortable being ME.
I am loud.
I am passionate.
I am fun.
I am creative.
I am silly. 
I am intriguing.
I am carefree.
I am honest. 
I am fiercely loyal. 
I am genuine. 
I am sweet. 
I am friendly.
I am strong. 
I do not bullshit.
I mean what I say. 
I say what I mean. 
If I like you and call you friend you have a friend for life. 
I think my big, loud personality scares people sometimes.
I think people think I'm weird because I clap like a 3 year old on Christmas morning when I see something I like. 
I think people think I am crazy for yelling at tv screens in bars while football games are on.
I think people think I am weird for cheering loudly for a band when I am only one of 5 people in the room. 
I don't care what any of those people think! 

The older I get the happier I am. 
It takes a long time to be comfortable in your own skin and not worry what others think. 
Once you get to the point where you are totally and completely happy with you life gets even better. 
So, to all the young ones out there. 
Sorry if my big, loud, passionate, honest, silly personality scares you. 
I promise you this is totally and 100% me. 
You may think I have an ulterior motive I do not. 
I just think you are as much fun as I am. 
Fun people need to stick together to make the rest of the world a little more fun! 

Life is short. Make the most of it. Enjoy the ride! 
XOXOXOXO

FRIENDS!

Do you remember being a kid where you would meet other kids and were instantly friends?
I seriously miss that. I run into some really cool people every now and then.
I wish I could just say to them "Hey you are fun. I like you! Lets be friends!"
Why isn't that acceptable anymore?
Just something that has been on my mind lately.
I want the simplicity of childhood again.

Penn State

I am totally and completely overwhelmed by all the heinous acts going on in this world.

When I first heard about the Sandusky allegations and Joe Pa I seriously thought that Joe Pa was just of that age/generation where he could not comprehend what was actually going on with Sandusky.
I am totally and completely DISGUSTED with Joe Pa and EVERY OTHER person who knew about the abuse and let it go! UNACCEPTABLE!

PSU should have gotten the death penalty!

Let the coaches out of their contracts. Let the players transfer. KILL THE PROGRAM!
I love love love football and I am saying that college no longer deserves the privilege of fielding a football team. You had a successful team for YEARS! You sacrificed the well being of children. You let a sick fuck into your program and you let him continue to use your facilities AFTER you found out what he was doing.


PSU should have gotten the death penalty!!

PSU covered up sexual abuse! SEXUAL ABUSE OF  CHILDREN! Who the fuck does that? Who in the fuck does that while they are in a position where they are responsible for so many young lives?
I am beyond words with this situation.

PSU should have gotten the death penalty!!!

SMU got the death penalty for paying players to play football.
SMU wanted to WIN so they bought the talent.
SMU did not harm children.
SMU did not let someone sexually abuse children.
SMU gave talented athletes from no money lots and lots of money to play football.
SMU should have been banned from bowl games and lost scholarships for their repeat offenses but they did not deserve the death penalty.

PSU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE DEATH PENALTY!!

Dear Joe Pa,
I respected you.
I looked up to you.
I cheered for you.
I was in awe of you and your career.
I am disgusted that you let this happen.
I am disgusted that you protected something so heinous.
I don't know how you lived with yourself KNOWING that was going on in your football program!
I know God forgives all. BUT....
I hope HE put you in your place and let you know how he felt about your actions or lack there of.
I hope HE made you feel the pain that the victims felt!
I am happy you were stripped of wins and titles.
I am sorry your players accomplishments were tarnished by your lack of respect for human life.

PSU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE DEATH PENALTY!

Football Season

As you all know I am IN LOVE WITH FOOTBALL!
We are 42 days away from NCAA football and 46 days away from NFL!! I am BEYOND excited!!
I am hoping to attend a FEW (more than 2) games this year! Fingers crossed it all works out!
I will be better about blogging this fall.
Life is moving right along.
It is CRAZY busy.

Anyhwo have a GREAT weekend!
Say a prayer for all involved in the heinous Colorado movie theater shooting.
Hug your family & friends and tell people you LOVE THEM!
XOXOXOOXOXOXOXOXOXO
