Monday Morning Roll Call!

Gooooooodddd Monday Morning! Thought I'd start the day with an old-fashioned roll call. You remember those, right? The teacher would stand behind her desk, podium - (ok so I went to a private school) - and then she would pull out her olive green ATTENDANCE RECORD, her canary yellow #2 pencil and proceeded to call the roll. Ahem, so let's see who's present and who's sleeping it off, shall we?

Tarheels? PRESENT!!! This weekend's game against Duke was a battle of wills, grit and trash talkin'. Early on it was clear that we were in for a defensive fight - lead by Robert Quinn. But the Heels scored first blood with a beautiful field goal kick from #11 Casey Barth. There would be a 3 more of those kicks - a career-high 4 field goals! Let's not forget there was a touchdown courtesy of Jheraine Boyd, a crowd-pleasing (well the Carolina crowd anyway) INT caught by Charles Brown, Ryan Houston's career-high 164 yards rushing, Jon Cooper's offensive blocks, all culminating in a final score of UNC 19 - Duke 6!
 BlueDevils? - BlueDevils? - Absent. Hope you know this goes on your permanent record.
 Cowboys? PRESENT!!  Eagles?- Eagles? - Absent  Final score - Cowboys 20, Eagles 16
Panthers? Absent :( Saints? - Man, are they here or what? 8-0? Seriously???  Final score Saints 30, Panthers 20
Colts? PRESENT!! Another 8-0.  It was a come from behind sqeaker of a win - but hey a W's a W, right? Good job, Peyton. Texans? Absent. Final score Colts 20, Texans 17.

J-Fay? Baby Boi? Showtime? This is roll call!

Work It

I found an old photo of me from many moons ago. I'm talking acid washed jeans, big glasses, big hair - the whole 9 yards. It's just a casual shot - me and a friend chilling on the couch (uh, no I don't plan to post it LOL) - but it got me thinking about yester-year or days of old (sheesh, that sounds kinda knightly)...You know, those days when your biggest worries included "are the quarter pounder combos on sale this week? Is HE going to ask me out? For Prom??" (HE didn't but I went to prom anyway and had a BLAST!) This is also about the time I got my first taste of adulthood - A JOB! A real one! Like actually doing things for someone other than my parents and grandparents in order to maintain my allowance (yes, I was one of those kids). Employee ID, Clock-In/Out, an actual check - shoot couldn't tell me nothing. I was a working WOMAN after all (okay so a working TEEN but still, LOL)  Guess where I worked? No, go ahead I'll wait... Time's u...

You Don't Have To be so mean

Someone asked me the other day " hey, don't you ever get tired of being so happy and positive all the time? How can you be so NICE?" I was thrown! Ok maybe not completely since I've heard a little about this before. "You always have a smile on your face...you're so happy...you're so NICE to EVERYBODY...I really like talking to you...thank you for being so kind...-it's rare" Even though I've heard these comments before, it still surprises me a little. Not that people think I'm nice but that so many people experience the opposite - often enough that they are shocked enough to comment. Makes you, ok me, wonder why are so many people not nice? Just plain old mean? How do they get that way? Can't make me believe that people are born that way...hmm course i have a seen pictures of newborn babies with some pretty mean mugs. Looking like they've been here before and experienced all the atrocities of life ALREADY!  But really - why?  ...

Very Superstitious

Do you think black cats portend bad tidings? Are you triskaidekaphobic (fear of the number 13)? Growing up, I used to hear all sorts of things that were supposedly bad luck or could bring on something that you'd rather not, well, bring on. There was the one about walking under a ladder...or how many of you remember that little ditty about stepping on a crack and breaking your Mama's back? Yeah? I thought you might LOL  I asked a few people about any superstitions that they may have heard/been told. Not all of them are omens of doom and gloom. Some are kinda funny and some you might even want to have happen. Like this first one: If palm of your left hand is itching, you're going to receive some money.       Okay, that's a superstition that I can deal with. Now don't go rubbing your left hand on poison ivy to make your palm itchy to get money. The only thing you're going to do is end up with itchy palms that will spread and have you bathing in oatmeal and ch...
