September 2010
A nation watching on television recoiled as one. A teammate waved frantically for a trainer. For a moment, Prothro sat with his hands on his knees, stunned silence reverberating through the stadium. Then Alabama’s star receiver rolled over, face down, pinning his helmet into the earth. It’s an agonizing image, an athlete coming to grips with his mortality in an instant. The junior...

Nah. No such thing. Besides I have to impress the Frat Boys. (Kidding).
Today I’m driving to Birmingham to see Blake and Katie
but most importantly to give this guy a million puppy kisses and cuddles
and then on Friday all four of us are headed to Tuscaloosa to pretend like they’re…
I can’t wait to see you!

Watching you in Six Feet Under and then the new episode of Dexter is messing with my head.
One who loves you the most
When the sky is falling from above you And the wind is raging from the coast And you want someone who truly loves you I will be the one who loves you the most When the masquerade and burlesque balls Become too ordinary to boast You complain about the parade and curtain calls I will be the one who loves you the most Yeah, I will be the one who loves you the most When the women with their...

Just making sure all the new coworkers know that I was cool 8 years ago.

Is it really fall yet?
Today I woke up and it was all rainy outside and I checked the weather on my phone and OMG it was under 60 degrees for the first time in about 904 years.
So I did what any other normal person would do and ran to my shelf of sweaters and pilfered through to find the softest most slouchy one I had and pulled it on with leggings and booties.
It’ll probably be back to 95 degrees by the end of...
Puppies in the park
Last Friday was my last day of funemployent, so Blake and I decided to take the dog to the park and let him run around. He was cooped up in his crate a lot during the moving and unpacking process, so we thought he’d go nuts once we let him off the leash. We found a pretty little park about a mile away from the new place.
It seems, though, that we have the only dog in the world who wants...
I've been outed.
Now that almost every box is unpacked in the new apartment (details on that to come later!) and I am on day 3 of the new job, I am starting to feel a little more settled than I have in quite some time. I know that going to Mobile and taking the internship were exactly what I needed to do this summer as I know it is one of the main reasons I got this job, but I have never been so glad to leave a...

when this used to play during every commercial break, my sister & i would endlessly discuss how great it would be to buy a small drum, go into work singing this song while banging on said drum, & then just leave. the lesson to be learned from this story is that no one should ever leave us alone for prolonged periods of time.
The actual...

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen this many people in Tuscaloosa. This is about to be an insane gameday. Can’t wait to get a yellowhammer in my hand. Roll tide!!

a group of old biddies who apparently retired specifically to come to tuscaloosa & get drunk days before the game just nearly took me out on their ez-go golf cart. i love this town.
Still a little jealous that sister is still rocking the Tuscaloosa life about 2 blocks from Bryant-Denny Stadium. Also, this weekend will be nuts.
