165 days

Today is the start of spring practice for the Bama boys.

I would like to take a moment to thank safety Mark Barron for taking the spotlight off the start practice and putting it on his weekend arrest because he thought defending his cousin's hit and run accident in Mobile was a smart thing to do. Family blood is not stronger when you have a full scholarship starting your future.

Really looking forward to A-day this year! I hope I get the nephews so I show them what Aunt Stephie loves so much!

Roll Tide!

I'm not percolating

As you may already know, I'm Methodist and it's Lent. This means I had to give up something. Something that's a sacrifice. None of this giving up Lent for Lent stuff! So I gave up....coffee! *Dum-Dum-DUMMMMMMMM!!!!*

I know... shocker.... Mum said, "You really went with the sacrifice this year!"

Just to be clear, I gave up coffee, not caffiene, or else I would be leading the assualt for the UN in Libya right now and probably be dead. Today is marking the start of the second full week and two things were not what I expected them to be:
1. I didn't take into account that daylight saving time began the first Sunday after Lent. Fail.
2. I thought hot tea would be supplement enough. Not really.

I drive past a Starbucks now and drool like a rabid dog.

In other news, so far I have saved approximately $130.... #winning
