Sense of humor

As you might imagine, having a sense of humor is a requirement in my house and, if I do say so myself, both my kids have a great sense of humor. When Claire and I met up with Amy on the way to my aunt's house for Thanksgiving, Amy started telling Claire that she had seen the movie "Elf" last night with her boyfriend Joey and that she thought Claire would like it.

Well, Claire had seen Elf the weekend before while at the house of her boyfriend, Joshua Miller. I had so much fun listening to my 19 year old and 7 year old daughters laugh like crazy and talk about their favorite parts of the movie. I told Amy that the conversation was either a validation of Claire's advanced sense of humor or an indictment of Amy's juvenile sense of humor. Either way, it was so fun to hear them laugh like crazy together about the same movie that each one had seen with their boyfriend.

UF-FSU scoreboard showing half-ass QB Wyatt Sexton at the UF-South Carolina game last week wearing a Florida sweatshirt. Again, more Gator envy by the Noles. They did show the pic on ESPN but someone photoshopped it onto the scoreboard.

They never get over that rejection letter from UF!!

Down with the evil Nole

WOOOOOHOOOOOO--Gators finally beat the evil Nole in Tallahassee. True Freshman Brandon Siler was a STUD at middle linebacker playing for Crowder. Ciatrick Fason, who attended the same high school I did, carried the offense in the fourth quarter. So great to win there on the night they rename the stadium to Bobby Bowden Field. That's going to be a good trivia question in a few years.

The game was sweet retribution for the Noles sorry behavior after the game last year when they attempted to deface our field--

To all FSU fans, regardless of the outcome of ANY football game, you will always be Florida's Second-rate University.

What do Florida and FSU grads have in common? They were both admitted to FSU, or, to use its correct name, half-ass U!

And now, I will go watch the replay of the game so I can observe the play without the nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach and trying to stifle the curse words that want to fly out of my mouth. I haven't had the pre-game nervous feeling like I had last night in a long time. I swear my heart was going to beat out of my chest as the Noles completed their last drive. As I phoned my old college roommate after each score, she asked when I would believe that the Gators would win it and I said, "Not until the clock reads 0:00. You know that I've had my hopes crushed too many times before."

Good quotes by Robert Frost

"The best way out is always through."

"You are educated when you have the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or self-confidence."

Even better!

Another good one.
