Mr. B and I were talking about politics and our country etc on Friday while we had date night (which honestly I couldn't tell you the last time we went to a decent restaurant, had, drinks, and actually had conversation the entire time) and he said "Yep I really appreciate not being able to have children right now" (being sarcastic) he is so afraid of the market and him losing his job that he's just scaring himself more and more...so yes I'd like to thank the crappy economy too!
This of course will not stop me from having the big "talk" once the new year hits. I calculated how much we will have spent on vacations this year and it's about 5k. Possibly closer to 6k.
Daycare would be between 5-6k a year. So there we go. We just don't go on expensive trips to Mexico and Europe for crying out loud! Maybe we rent a house in Destin instead.
Ok that's it..I'm not worrying about it for another 2 months though. No point.
Back to your regularly scheduled programming...

Rules of being a good fan...
Rule 1. Take a joke
Rule 2. Never say things that are a personal jab at the person
Rule 3. Especially if you are a man trying to intimidate a woman will get your ass kicked no matter where you are and what team you're a fan of.
Here's this story in a nutshell because honestly I don't want to relive it.
Uncle Kevin sold one of his tickets to my friend M. So I sent Uncle Kevin to sit with Mr. B and I sat with M. Well M went off early to go watch the band etc
So when it was time to walk (since we were in opposite directions) I was walking alone to the stadium.
There was this really cocky guy behind me talking to his two friends. (He was a Gator fan and they were LSU fans) he's going on and on about how great the team is etc.
I said something to the effect of "Wow you're pretty cocky...you won't be after tonight" and chuckled.
He then was like "How about you just fucking turn around and mind your own business" I said "Dude it was a just a joke hence me laughing afterwards"
Something else was said and then he did it...he said "And look at what a loser you are walking and going to the game by yourself..fucking loser" (this is what stung for some reason) I pulled a Beyonce and flashed my ring finger and said "Listen here you little fucker I'm married and was nice enough to switch with a friend and I'm going to meet her now"
I said "You know it was all a joke and you got serious and you're a dick"
He then ripped on my jeans. They are capri's people. But the ones that go to your knee's. He's like "you can't even figure out if you want to wears jeans or shorts or whatever those things are"
I turned and was like "Seriously? It was a joke and you made it so serious" He then called me something like a bitch and I said
"You know again you have proved that Florida fans are the worst fans...even when I was an Iowa fan at the Outback bowl you guys taunting little kids" and I called him a fucking asshole and dick haha
he kept going and I said a few more times "Listen it wa a joke and you turned it into something serious" I said "I'm leaving now because I punch you, you fucking tool" haha
I was soooo fuming! It was ridiculous. Well his personal attacks really hurt me...don't ask me why I don't know but I've never been personally attacked like that just the regular your team sucks banter you know.
But when Auntie Poo and I went to Tampa to see Iowa play Florida in the Outback Bowl a couple of years ago those fans were terrible!!!!!
First of they won on a bullshit call. After the game the ref's even said that it shouldn't have been called. That touchdown would've tied up the game and it would've went into OT. After the game people were actually cussing and taunting little kids...like a 5 year old.
That's how much class they have.
And by the way...they didn't create Gatorade. The guy that went to work at Florida actually was working at LSU and him and another guy created it for the players but then he went there and patented it Gatorade...I'm not saying this because I hate Florida truly not.
It's something I knew right when I moved down.
Yah Cheaters til the end right.
Well I think Tim Tebow is a good kid and really talented. I think he may have trouble in the NFL though but none the less I wish him the best...but his fans can kiss my Tiger loving ass.
Oh and he looked like Chewbacka...no freaking lie....a mix between Chewbacka and a LumberJack. But I wasn't witty enough to say that haha

Make Up Your Mind
Ok my In Law's are notorious for not making up their minds when it comes to things to do. I get really really frustrated with that because my family is the complete opposite and has things planned out and makes a big to do about holidays etc.
I decided that I'm just going to take the bull by the horns and be the annoying person that picks. I mean we've gone from not going anywhere to going someone in a matter of two days heh.
It went from maybe North Carolina, NYC, Colorado, Mexico, Dominican Republic, or Costa Rica maybe haha
But after researching I have found a great place in the Riviera Maya for a decent price. We checked it out on Tuesday night and it was about 1450 with airfare for two people all inclusive. Last night it was already up to 1600 grrr
And this is the week before Xmas because the week of Xmas is double that price (yah no lie). So I really want to get on it now.
I emailed my BIL aka Uncle Ben about the dates primarily because I have to tell my boss what week I'll be out so we can plan. I had Mr. B call him on his way home last night to say check it. Do you really think I got a response no....do you think I had a response waiting this morning when I checked it...no
I mean this family is so slooooow when it comes to things like this that are important. And to be honest if they just give me the dates and agree on the place I'll book mine now so I don't lose more money and whenever they get around to it they can.
I already know Mama Deb said to just call her and get her credit card info so she'd do it like today. It's just pesky Uncle Ben who doesn't have anyone nagging him which Mr. B won't because he'll say "real people work" yah I'm a real working person but I can manage to check a damn email in between.
Anyways this happens all of the time. Last year they came for Thanksgiving because I wanted it at our house instead of going to San Antonio (nobody lives there just a vacation) and since I had it at home Mr. B said we had to spend Xmas with his family (yes they came for Thanksgiving not my fam) but he said because I was getting my way having it at our house we had to do that...fine whatever.
We sit, sit, sit nothing....nothing involving Christmas at all and I hadn't been home for Xmas in 4 years and my aunt was coming in from Belgium and that made me really sad. Then it turned into they got invited to Mr. B's aunts house and just couldn't bare to turn her down. So we ended up in NOLA for a few days and I told Mr. B f this we're going to my family on Christmas day.
So we did his family thing for a few days and then went home. But we got there on Xmas day and yes it was still fun but the whole fun thing at GG and Papa's is the anticipation of Xmas.
So last year Mr. B said well now we're having a REAL Xmas with my parents...I said fine whatever but after that we're doing my family and then staying home the one after....he agreed.
I do get my grandparents coming for Thanksgiving which is nice since my GG turns 70 while she's here! I'm planning on making her a special cake once I figure out what to make haha.
Anyways especially if we did the week before Xmas Mr. B and I could still experience Xmas at home with some of my traditions even though we won't be doing gifts...which is fine...I can sit and watch Xmas stuff hehe
So yah that's my frustration...and technically Mr. B in law shouldn't be going out of the country since he won't call his damn doctor. But I can't force him to do that and if he's comfortable then I guess I will be.

Florida Schmorda..
And I only say that because I encountered (again) a very hateful fan (before the game) that was just the biggest prick I've ever met in my life.
Florida deserved to win that game.
Our D did everything they needed to do and our Offense couldn't handle it. Some play calling but a lot of stupid mistakes.
But I am happy it was such a close game especially since everyone kept saying we were overrated. I knew we weren't. I know we play to the level of our opponents. Do I like it no but I am a true LSU fan through and through and I'm not going to throw in the towel or not believe.
I do feel that we could beat Alabama but that will be the hardest fight of our lives. They will most likely win and that's ok as long as we fight hard. I would totally be happy with a 10-2 season and go to to a BCS bowl game.
Anyways I have some pictures I need to upload because well this blog is kind of boring and I think pictures will make it fun haha
I will talk about that infamous FL fan later but I have shit to do at work today so I can't worry about that.
I'll update later this afternoon but must go grab some dessert before a conference call (hey don't look at me like that I'm going to work out tonight)

She Showed!!!
Ok well Thursday she showed her ugly little head but hey that was okay with me...what was that like a 46ish day cycle? ugghhh I mean seriously.
And let me tell you my cramps have been atrocious...I wanted to physically go in and pull out all female organs just to let it calm down for a minute geesh.
Well last month we didn't even get to make "whoopie" (haha that always cracks me up like an 8 year old boy) that much so it wasn't like I really thought it would happen.
I think I will definitely do more of it this month though especially since we're in the month that Aunt DC and Aunt Kellie are visiting so I wouldn't technically be pregnant until after they leave anyways.
I honestly can't believe we're already in October...and it's the 7th to boot! I mean it already marks 3 weeks until they get here...I swear just last week I was like 4 weeks! Time is truly flying by.
Mr. B's bday is the 23rd...I went and picked him up a new LSU polo...it's really nice and freaking expensive. This LSU habit is getting crazy. And of course I had to get a Gold Polo for this weekends game and then face decals and a decal for my car haha.
Its a 100 everywhere I go I swear.
But Uncle Kenny's Bday is like th 13th and he got his coupon for Texas De Brazil (if you all remember we used mine for my bday a couple months ago) well I quickly signed up Mr. B last night in hopes that he'll get one too and we'll all go together.
But right now life is just football and LSU football to be exact. Well let's not forget about the Saints who are rocking it too.
LSU played so much better against Georgia. I mean LSU fans are pretty critical and I thought it was crazy some said he still didn't play well. Folks we held them to like 37 yards in the 1st half..that's pretty good. Our D is looking great and so is Scott.
I think we have a great chance of beating Florida honestly. I saw that Tebow was practicing last night but I doubt he's going to be ready. It wouldn't be smart for him to play and ruin the rest of the season or his career...if he goes out there too early and gets hit once he could be done.
But I do want him to play so that when we beat FL all of the fans won't say its because he wasn't playing. Although I hear their back up is pretty good too.
Just no rain you hear that!
Well I'm guessing we'll be out there at about 6:30 or 7am...yep with Mimosas and Bloody Mary's and breakfast and don't forget my jello shots whooot.
It's going to be insane. I think I need to come up with some sort of portalet for our tailgate because the inside lines are going to be crazy and I don't even know where the closest portalet is and then it will be so nasty...but I'll have toilet paper at least. hmmmm
Until next time America.
