Football Friday!

  • Friday. Finally. This short week has been long. Too much work stress and too many meetings. I can’t get anything done because I’ve got another 2 hour meeting to go to. Le sigh.
  • The BF and I are going to the Husker game tomorrow. It’s his first college game ever! (he’s from New York and a more of a pro football fan). I’m excited. I just hope my Huskers win.
  • Is this a rite of passage on Tumblr? Since last night 3 Porn blogs have followed me…except they are a special kind of porn blog…Granny porn. (shudders, ewww no thanks, I can never unsee that!!)
  • I got new jeans the other day, I’m wearing them in the above photo. They are from Express and they don’t have that annoying gap in the back of the waistband. Totally worth the price tag for that alone!
  • Last week it was record heat for the game (96 degrees). This week, it will be down into the 50′s by the end of the game. What a difference a week makes. 

Have a great weekend friends!!

Monday things

  • Look at this adorable dress! $12.50 a Old Navy this weekend. It’s a little too big on top (story of my LIFE!) so I’ve safety pinned it. But how cute is it?!?? I feel so sassy!
  • It’s been raining here again. I’m about to build an ark. My basement has more water in it. SEND HELP!
  • I’m in a really good place right now. Life is good. ‘nuff said about that for now! 😉
  • My friend and I bought our tickets for Harry Potter World and the Magic Kingdom for our trip next week! I cannot wait to have butterbeer and get a wand! I’m so freaking excited!!
  • There are Husker Football Season Tickets available. This may not seem like a big deal to people, but to Husker football fans this is HUGE. The games have been sold out since 196something (more than 320 consecutive games) and due to Big 10 Rules they’ve got some tickets that opened up. This is a very tempting (but expensive) idea.
  • I need to go run today. I ran 4 miles on Friday after work, but that’s been it… I need to get my butt in gear. 

Have a great week friends!!

Friday Five!!

  1. It’s Friday and it’s Gameday baby! My Huskers are playing Iowa. It’s currently not going so well. 14-0 at the half. Get it together Nebraska! Edit: Now it’s 14-3, Nebraska just scored a field goal.
  2. I’m having Thanksgiving dinner with my family tonight and then a 3 day weekend! It’s the start of my 8 vacation days in December. I have to see my kidney doctor for my every 2 years (is that biyearly? IDK) appointment. Just a checkup. Then I’m going to do some Christmas shopping and maybe some baking!
  3. I bought a fabulous black lace curve-hugging dress at the Banana Republic Factory Store. I am in love. I need somewhere fancy to where it, stat. Or a date. Or both. I’m not picky! 😉
  4. I am currently alone in the newsroom. There is only 1 other person in the station with me. Gotta love holidays!
  5. My mom and friends keep asking what I want for Christmas. I have no idea. Any good ideas for me friends?

Happy Friday and weekend Friends!!

Perks of working in TV News

While there aren’t many…there are some! Sometimes you meet famous people.

With Husker football starting on Saturday, we’re shooting our pre-season special tonight for air tomorrow.

Two former Huskers and former NFL players are about 15 feet away from me right now. Jay Foreman and Eric Warfield played for the Huskers in the glory days (the 90’s). They seem like nice guys.

When they walked in with our sports Director (into a newsroom full of women!) the one said “Helloooo ladies!” He smiled quite wide as well.

Made me giggle a bit to myself. Once a (football) player. Always a (football) player.
