Mr. and Mrs. Animal House Boy. As you may remember from a prior update, I headed to Texas over Labor Day weekend for the wedding of one of my guy friends from college. These two are a perfect match and their wedding was beyond gorgeous! More than once someone said, "Man, this is just like a movie!"
I failed to get pictures of the venue (which was the bride's parents' ranch) so I have been keeping any eye on facebook to find some. So far, I just found one, that shows the lake (over which fire works were set off through out the night!) I'll keep an eye out for more and share in a later update.
And I always love love love getting to catch up with my Animal House boys and their wives. These are some of my favorite guys in the world!

Pokes Win! Pokes Win! College football is off and running---love love love this time of year! I missed most of the games opening weekend because of the wedding. But no worries, the Governor kept our whole group up to date on all of the details with his trusty i-phone snuck into his tux pocket!
Anyway, in case you haven't heard, my Pokes come out firing and beat Washington State 65-17. And just in case you forgot---OSU would be the team from Oklahoma that killed a PAC-10 team, and not that other team who almost got beat by a no-name WAC team. Would have hated for there to be any confusion. You can check out game highlights below!
Kirk Herbstreit Syndrome Strikes Again. You all probably remember the prior Kirk Herbstreit blog. I was chatting with a guy sitting next to me on the plane ride back home from Texas. He noticed I had out my ESPN magazine to prepare for my fantasy football draft (thank you Childhood Friend for giving me that!). We got to talking about football......and at one point he was talking about how excited Denver is about Tebow. The he says, "They really hate....oh shoot, I can't remember the last quarterback's name." I immediately respond, "Jake Cutler." He looks at me sort of perplexed and says, "Wow, you really do know your football don't you!" Sigh. Yes. I do. And apparently this knowledge is a curse.
Getting Old. Not only am I apparently no longer Forever 21, but I've noticed myself doing things, and getting excited about things, that just make me seem really old. First off, last week I finalized my Advanced Healthcare Directive (aka a healthcare power of attorney--you appoint someone to make healthcare decisions for you in the event that you are incapacitated). Young people don't do these things. Secondly, I was balancing my checkbook the other day after not doing it for a couple of weeks and when I got to the end and it balanced with the bank statement, I was so excited. And then I wasn't because I realized I'm becoming a loser.
Quote of the Month. We have two winners this month. And I have a picture of them together. :)
Our first winner is College Roomie. We were laying by the pool last a couple of weekends ago. She asks me, "What are you going to wear on your date this week?" I responded, "It's not a date, we're just friends having dinner. It' just like when you and I go to dinner. That's not a date either." And then she responded with the quote, "Hey, he's paying. And he has a penis. That's a date in my book." Classic. Just classic.
And while it looked like Blonde Oklahoma Girl was going to be dethroned from her reign as winner of quote of the month, she came through at the last minute with a gem. "Stupid Tiger Woods. He really ruined everything for us girls, because now every guy thinks he can be a [non-blog friendly word] and get away with it. I knew I didn't like golf for a reason."
