Monday Musings from Kathy

I love the internet.  Because pictures like this exist.  Wonderful.  Good stuff, internet.

I've taken quite the hiatus from blogging.  {Insert excuses here}  Mainly, I've just been busy.  And as you are aware, I'm super mature, so I've been prioritizing.  As much as I've wanted to write lately, I just can't justify saying, "Yes, little human that I created, I see that you are growing and developing, but mommy needs to blog about OSU football."  I'm in the early stages of writing a parenting book, I've basically got it down perfect.

So these are the things you need to know about Kathy, at this very moment:

1. Yesterday, Husband and I celebrated our sixth anniversary.  It's true, we've lasted a US Senator's entire term.  High fives all around.  We wrote letters to each other, and Husband knocked it out of the park.  I, on the other hand, referred to the last year as our "break out year."  Nothing but All-Star appearances from this point forward and that our next contract should be huge.  In my own way, it was totally romantic.

2. That made me realize just how much I'm missing organized sports at the moment.  Football season can't start soon enough.  I'm ready for college football right meow.  I'm ready for fantasy football, as I know this will be my year.  This is THE year.  2013: Kathy dominates fantasy football.  I'm currently brainstorming clever team names.  I caught a guy at work making copies of a fantasy football magazine the other day.  I wanted to high five him.  I didn't.  Anyway, I'm ready for it all to begin.

But I'm going to share something with you all...  I just don't know if I've bought into the hype of OSU.  I know, I know.  Your mouths are all agape.  Well, close them up.  Stop being so dramatic.  I just don't have a good feeling about all the the preseason expectations.  I'm also a little leary of a D3 guy taking over the offense.  Who knows, maybe I'm wrong.  Every year that I expect it to be "our year," I'm wrong. So maybe that whole, "Kathy doesn't know anything about football" theory still holds true.  If so, I'll see you suckers in Pasadena.

Speaking of football...seriously, Aaron Hernandez?  I just saw earlier on Twitter that they are now investigating him for multiple shootings in Florida dating back to his freshman year.  This guy has to be a complete sociopath.  How else can you explain him getting away with this for so long? Poor Dez Bryant can't get away with anything.  At all.  Bless his diamond-loving heart, that kid can't catch a break.  Meanwhile, Hernandez is a modern day Mr. Blonde.  Allegedly.  (See what I did there, a total obscure Reservoir Dogs reference.)

3. Due to an exorbitant amount of crunchy snack eating and a little too much Hank Williams (the OG) occurring around me at work, I've delved heavily into Pandora once again.  A couple of observations...one of my ear buds really hurts.  My ear hole is too small.  So the one thing on my body that is naturally small is my ear hole.  Figures.  Second, sometimes I don't think Pandora understands me at all.  At all.  No, Pandora, I don't like Lifehouse.  You can keep giving me different versions of the same song (album, live, unplugged, etc.) I don't like it.  That's why I hit that thumbs down button.  Stop ignoring my thumbs.  And today Pandora played the worst song ever.  Teresa by Peter Bradley Adams.  So, so bad.  I would never listen to this song unless I was looking for something to punish an enemy with.  If you like this song...I'm sorry, I'm not sorry.  You should re-evaluate your music choices...and possibly our friendship.

That's it.  Happy Monday.
